E-bay of the day

Ok, many of you know that I am fairly lenient as to what I think e-bay sellers can get away with. I have a tendancy to blame the buyer's greed and stupidity as long as the seller delivers what he says he will--even if he does gild the lilly a mite. But this is too much even for me.

Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

    I've been seeing a lot of crap like that from him. The ones that get me, are auctions that make some comment about great luster or original mint luster, and then the coin they have up for sale is all flat grey looking. It's very hard not to send them some kind of smart-as$ email.

    What sucks is this guy frequently bids on the good stuff that I am bidding on. I have yet to see him sell the type of quality stuff that he buys.
  • mcheathmcheath Posts: 2,437 ✭✭✭

    I'm going to ask the seller to send me a pic thats been photoshopped a little better.

    I want to know what I'm getting.
  • earlwbollingerearlwbollinger Posts: 1,304
    I wonder if someone irradiated it or not.
    My first thought was some serious whizzing had been done to it. But serious Photoshopping will do it too.

    I thought the same thing; the seller aquired a Dremmel.
