Idiot Seller claims AH Kennedy in MS69

This seller is full of crap. Claims every Kennedy half being sold is "possibly accented hair". Puts PCGS pricing guide in her ad even though the coin being sold isn't even graded. Always sets the "trend" amount to 69 even though coin can't be with the crap seen on the photo. Uses same photo for all Kennedy halves being sold. I've emailed seller multiple times trying to set 'em straight to no avail. Maybe a bunch of emails from collectors on the forum start hitting seller mail box might get some attention.

    Yeah, she does the same thing with 1961 proof Franklins - "possible DDR". The first couple times I saw these I eMailed her. No response so I gave up.

    She does not care about the well informed buyers. She's after the uninformed image



  • The Kennedy she has pictured is NOT AH - that's for sure. I looked through the rest of her ad and, although she gives "trends" pricing for 69, she does state that she doesn't think it would make 67 ... jus' a lil' bit-O double talk there.
    I checked some of her other auctions. She has a proof Franklin up and gives the "trends" for MS ... I'm steering clear.

  • ..What's bad is she will probably sell a few..................
  • here is something interesting. In her feedback she makes this comment, gives you an idea of the thought process involved

    momof3girls010305: MS = MINT STATE AND MS CAN BE FROM VG 10 TO MS 70..SORRY YOU DONT AGREE

    In another, she claims that even though she misrepresented a coin it was the buyers fault for not judging it themselves (granted you should always judge for yourself, but it doesnt absolve the responsibility of the seller to properly represent the item being sold).

    I'm still wondering how the proofs she sells grade MS, even by her own definition image

    I just hope that her 3 girls don't acquire her sense of ethics.

  • I sent her a polite question asking if she knew the difference between the PR and MS designations for proofs and business strikes, and the misinformation of the values when not represented properly. She replied with "Thank you" and nothing more. That tells me not only does she know she is ripping people, it is also intentional, as she hasnt changed anything about her titles, descriptions, or anything else. That is sad.
  • I sent her a brief message saying it wasn't an accented hair.

    her response:

    "Read the ad. It does to claim to be an accented hair."

  • I just reported her for possible fraudulent listing, as she knows she is attempting to rip people by misrepresenting the coin.

    "she" - why would you think "she" is a "she"???

    "momof3girls" sounds highly dubious especially with her broken "chinese" english. My guess is this is an alias for some guy ripping off anyone and everyone.

  • Glad you all did your part. I reported seller to ebay Fraud but got no response. I sent different emails and finally got a profane messages back. The last one said, "Get a job and leave me alone." I sincerely doubt the seller is either female or a mother!!! That's my take.

    Nasty one. Leaves retalitory feedback. Should be bounced from eBay, if they actually cared.
