    Thanks for the heads-up. With a feedback like that your only asking for trouble if you bid on his auctionimage
    GOD BLESS AMERICA!

    He must pay his fees as he is obviously paying his dues. image

    Here is one feedback I just found:
    Coin recieved G4 Condition. Refund Recieved. I do Not Recommend this Seller Buyer: fordmusicbox ( 257) Jul-18-07 21:54
    1910 BARBER SILVER DIME IN MINT STATE 65 CONDITION (#190115225870)

    I'll bet he's a grader at SGS image
  • Look at this auction, the buyer left positive feedback and was pleased with the dipped/scrubbed, well worn Lincolns. Pretty sad when buyers purchase from people like this and don't know coins. I would spend those "Gems".

    Go to toolhaus.org to check all the seller's negative feedback.

    It appears seller either does the bait and switch or shadows the photos so you can't tell a MS64 from a VF buffalo nickel (a tactic he uses to sell a $1 coin for $10).

    As long as there are buyers who think they'll get a gem barber dime for $10, this seller will stay in business.

    This Walker was advertised as a Gem/Unc and purchased for $17.99:

    While I do not condone the seller's dishonesty and agree that he should be banned from ebay and selling coins, in general, what reasonable person would:

    1. Conclude that the coin was Unc
    2. Conclude that one could buy a gem for $17.99
    3. Be shocked/disappointed when the coin arrived and graded fine?

    Certainly much of the blame lies with the buyers of this stuff. If the buyers can't tell that the coins are vastly overgraded they should collect something other than coins.

    Yeah, look at the feedback:



    << <i>Coin recieved G4 Condition. Refund Recieved. I do Not Recommend this Seller Buyer: fordmusicbox ( 257) Jul-18-07 21:54
    1910 BARBER SILVER DIME IN MINT STATE 65 CONDITION (#190115225870) US $10.49 View Item >>



    If the buyer knew enough that the coin was G4 in hand, what the hell did he expect from the auction image?

    He has four pages of items for auction and no bidders; I wonder why.

    I'll tell you why he is still selling, because bidders keep buying his coins without actually looking at the photo's he provides!

    Bad feedback will not get you banned from EBay but bidders should check the feedback before bidding which is the whole purpose behind their feedback system.

    Can there really be anyone that's this big a piece of S-H-I-T or is he conducting an experiment for ebay to determine how many naive buyers that don't read feedback. I can't figure it out.
  • segojasegoja Posts: 6,134 ✭✭✭✭
    E-Bay only cares about fees, not about people getting screwed.

    I have NO empathy for any of these buyers. It takes all of 1 second to realize this guy is full of @%^&amp;.

    I like this one: This guy has no idea what MINT STATE is....Scam artist Link

    Uh, Joeleelee-- if you are bidding on these as mint state from these photos you have no idea what mint state is either.

    A better question is, why is anyone still BUYING from this guy?

    I wanted to give him benefit of the doubt on this one (maybe he used the wrong photo) but he actually has MS-65 written on the holder!
