Sick of seeing this garbage on ebay...it's getting personal

commoncents123

This guy is peddling a ton of those USCG garbage slabs. Look at those bids, I really hope those are just unsuccessful shills, I would really hate to see people getting ripped off like that. I wish there was something we could do to put an end to that... I mean, this kind of thing is personal.... My first online coin purchase years ago, was an NNC coin that was poorly imaged (never had even heard of them), and I got ripped off big time.

whenever i see a slab like that, or any slab pretty much, i treat the coin as raw and judge accordingly/bid appropriately....... you could spend a whole day finding auctions like that and getting annoyed with them..... but why bother? know what i mean....?

i made some mistakes when i got started, i could type all night about it......... but it taught me what i needed to learn... those bidders are still in bootcamp, let em learn the hard way... which is usually the best way


ha ha, deep

I would tend to disagree somewhat with that statement... There are some people who may list 1 or 2 coins, or a bunch of AT crap that nobody pays more for, but these coins are bidding at huge premiums. The guy is making a concerted, major effort at deception, and despite what people think about ebay that is actually quite rare.

So you're saying that Bust Half ain't no AU58?
How could a Grading Company make such a mistake?
They have real nice plastic holders like all the other TPGs.

USCG should stick to guarding the coast and leave coin grading to the professionals
