That would be my guess. That page is ISO-8859-1 encoded which cannot handle double byte character sets.

I think your right. Something got lost in the translation.

When you see a seller selling on eBay from China, there's a 99.99999999% chance it is a fraudulent account. Look at the feedback and see what he sold / bought. When you see the same auctions for nonsense that was bought you can see through it. In the event you see a respectable seller leaving feedback, its probably because they hi-jacked that eBay account to try to make it look legitimate. Whit this seller, they even have a neg feedback to make it look real.


If it looks too good to be true. It probably is........

It's from eBay China. Here's his feedback in Chinese, which for most of the folk reading this will be just as unintelligible.

I don't think that's a fair statement. You can't just dismiss a country of 1.6 Billion people with a ridiculous percentage. Yes, a lot of crap comes out of China, and any auction one is interested requires a level of diligence. But there are good sellers there too, just as there are bad sellers in the US sometimes.

One of my favorite coins is a 1908 $10 that I got from a seller in Hong Kong. And the kicker is that I got it at a cheap price, because everyone was afraid of doing business with China. But it arrived quickly, is absolutely genuine, and beautiful.

Hey, did anybody check the items he has for sale? There's a slab there I have never seen before. HMV Historical Money & Valuables.
Anybody ever seen one?

I am an ebay promoter, not a basher; but I must agree with the statement about most of the chinese sellers as being fradulent at this time. I do not really count Hong Kong among these. I know they belong to the mainland, but my dealings as a buyer and a seller have been very good with Hong Kong. Unfortunately, that is not the case with most of the Chinese listings. You do not have to take my word for it, just check them out for yourself. I sure would not risk buying from them.
