    I've said it before, I'll say it again. Maybe anyone foolish enough to fall for this kind of thing deserves to be taken.

    Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the
    birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will
    precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you
    come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you
    who are the sons of the living father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in
    poverty and it is you who are that poverty."--- Gospel of Thomas (Lamdin translation)

    Well I'de say at least try to inform them the 1st time - then if idiots prevail and don't want the education then sit back and watch them throw their money away...... really nothing more you can do!

    It really doesn't take much effort to report bad listings regardless...

    @Steven59 I think that plenty can be done when criminals are counterfeiting US dollars, grading slabs and ripping people off. This is so wrong. It needs to be stopped. It's people like me who will get screwed. I'm learning and studying as much as I can but I can easily be fooled. I do live by the rule "if it's to good to be true it usually is" but that doesn't mean they won't price it just enough to temp someone. I guess this is where ebay policies work. If it's fake I know I'll get my money back. Those phony slabs are scary.
