    Ebay needs to have a Scumbag badge like they have powerseller badges for good sellers.

    His stock photo of a proof obverse with a business strike reverse should have been a warning.
    In cases such as this I always message first to ask if picture is of actual coin I would be receiving (required by ebay). A "yes" would have immediately proven him a liar and a bad seller.




    If he actually won 64 $5 gold eagles in a poker game as he claimed in the listings, he belongs in Vegas, not on Ebay. I wonder how many of his other buyers will be smart enough to call his "bluff."

    They sold 21 of them in that auction - I wonder if they won them in a poker game like their title suggests???

    Ebay needs to return Judy to her previous position.
