"Can I get more pictures, please?"

ddink

So I see a coin I really like (it's an AU $10 Indian) and I ask for additional pics (the ones in the auction were small). Since it's an Indian, the fields on the obverse are most important to me. My question was:

"Can you send some close-up pictures of this coin? I'm seriously interested, but would like to get a better look at the fields, especially on the obverse. Thanks!"

the seller responds, saying:

"The coin is graded by PCGS and would not carry the grade if there was a problem. We would not offer it for sale if we felt any different. We also have a return policy if you are not satisfied for any reason." [emphasis mine]

Seems like this is a case of "buy the holder, not the coin!"

Also seems like a case of don't buy from that seller

Sounds like one of the sellers who unload dogs on eBay. (No offense to Dog97 if he's still lurking around here)

I've never understood sellers who refuse to provide larger images. The little images they post in their auctions didn't start out little. Why not just keep the un-resized originals on hand for requests?

Not me Russ, when someone asks me for a larger picture, they get a 1800x1800 image of each side.

No they are just LAZY and got too spoiled with the "HOT MARKET." They are upset that once having to wake-up
and sit their fat-XXX on the chair in front of the PC, they had to put a little effort to sell their junk on ebay with
exposure to the world. Then you had the nerve to ask for something else? LMAO

Then the next thing is you'll want it shipped to you if you are privileged enough to win their auction.
Please don't get me started what all is involved to ship and all the expenses and time involved for sitting on their fat...
well hopefully you know what I mean.

But I gotta give them credit for waking up and lifting themselves off the couch.

If that's how he feels about it, then he shouldn't have bothered with any image at all.
