eBay listing: a simple mistake or something more?

Coin pictured is light years away from what is advertised in the title, so I sent the seller a question about this listing.
When in doubt, don't.

    The seller has a feedback total of 11 and already has two neutrals and one negative.
    Chances of getting a PCGS coin would appear to be nil.
    I reported the auction to eBay.

    All the other dollars listed do not have "PCGS" in the title.

    Perhaps a mistake on the lister's part?

    What is this listing, some kind of a joke?? This guy's off his rocker!!
    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    I sent the seller this question via the eBay system:
    Your auction title says the coin is a PCGS MS65, but the coin in the photo is an uncertified coin in approximately XF40 condition. Oops?

    This was his reply:
    so whats the difference? please tell me or send me the information on the differences.


    That pretty much eliminates the "simple mistake" defense.
    Reported.
    When in doubt, don't.

    The neg feedback he got was also for a misrepresented silver dollar.

    Someone has bid on the coin... an eBay'er with 4840 feedbacks and a 100% positive rating. I wonder if Mr. Seller might be in store for a rude feedback awakening?
    When in doubt, don't.

    When in doubt, don't.
