Why do I not believe this Ebayer will deliver the goods (an NGC PR65 Peace Dollar)?

Link to incredibly suspicious listing

His other listings I viewed did not have the bidder's ID hidden, as he does in this particular offering. But, based solely upon the one linked above, I wonder if any of them are legitimate?

    That really takes the cake!

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    I love the Q&A:

    Q: Hello, We are interested in ths coin and wonder if you have a picture of this coin in the NGC holder? Answered on Jan-21-05
    A: there is no ngc holder (not that i know what ngc holder is). This coin was in the coin album. I took it out of there and used the macro lens to photograph it.

    He knew it was a matte proof, but did not know what an NGC holder was? Hmmm.
    Who is General Failure, and why is he reading my hard drive?

    What a DOOFUS!
    Good going Mark/whoever nailed him with the question.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Now that's what 21 peace dollars should look like.

    The photos and text are similar to Superior's, including the estimate part, but not the "not sure" part. It's all stolen.

    So how do they make questions for the seller available for public view like that?

    His feedback sucks for a listing a coin that rare. I wouldn't touch him with a 10 ft pole.

    I didn't nail him with any questions. But, a "friend" sent him a very stern warning that he would be in big trouble if he didn't end that and any other bogus listings.image
