So-called right click disable stuff is so easy to by-pass, it's funny. right click the image, and let the silly little box pop up. move your mouse over "OK". press and HOLD your left mouse button on OK. then hold down your right mouse button. Let go of the left mouse button (which will finish the click). then let go of your right mouse button. Bada-bing, you get the right click menu.

<< PCGS List Is $100,000 >>

He can be bothered to use the PCGS pride guide, but PCGS hasn't placed the DDO designation on the insert? If he was so sure of its DDO status, why not send it back to PCGS for designation review and draw higher and more confident bids?

[Edited to add: By the way, using Firefox on the Mac, nothing is "disabled." I can very easily right click and select "Copy Image Location" and paste it into this message window.]

Or you could do it the easy way. Just place the cursor over the image, and click both right and left buttons at the same time.

Those will work most of the time, though some sites will have "major" coding so that even THOSE don't work. Haven't found a site were my method doesn't work, though.

Uh oh, another script kiddie at work. There are about a dozen ways to bypass this java script. The easiest (at least for me) is a second browser with java disabled. Also handy for unknown sites and sites that subject their vistors to drive by downloads of spyware.

I sent the seller a link to Ken Potter's article at http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/1969SDoubledDieCent.htm so we'll see what happens.

Another way to bypass this right click nonsense is to hit the delete key a lot of times while hitting the right mouse buttom. This method has never failed for me.

coinguy1 · December 19, 2004 5:49AM

I sent this to the seller and will report back here if I receive a reply:

Dear seller,
I am not too familiar with this variety but am wondering why the doubled die is not noted on the holder's grading label? And, do you guarantee that if resubmitted for such it would be so designated? Thanks

ziggy29 · December 19, 2004 5:50AM

<< heres the real deal! >>

CRAP! And I thought I was just drunk that night!

RBinTex, how do you know that? Are you scumnuker?

As, I pointed out in another thread, the seller can't be that bad since they sure seem to have a VERY loyal customer

He sure seems to have a very low net feedback for all the bidding he does.

Russ, NCNE

K6AZ · December 19, 2004 7:38AM

And if you look at his feedback, you will see he made a mistake. He posted feedback for megacoinvault as HCCS2, and the feedback was supposed to be left by megacoinvault on HCCS2's feedback.

coinguy89 · December 19, 2004 7:42AM

So is this really a scam?

tlhoy · December 19, 2004 7:46AM

"megacoinvault" also uses the same words in the feedback that "hccs2" uses.
"Highly Recommend ~ A Pleasure To Do E-Biz With! THANKS!!!!"

He's his own shill!

From the auction:

<< On Dec-16-04 at 08:44:56 PST, seller added the following information: This 1969-S Double Die Is like the 1995 Double Die as you can see from the photos. There is another variety of the 1969-S Double Die That has the IN GOD WE TRUST, LIBERTY & 1969 doubled Strong Like the 1972 Double Die.This one is not that type.It is a Great & Rare Quality Error like the 1995 Double Die !!! >>

In other words, "I KNOW it's not the type of DDO that is worth the prices I'm quoting from PCGS (who didn't attribute it as DDO). I'm covering my @$$ here."

Manorcourtman · December 19, 2004 8:16AM

I also emailed him. I believe this is a felony in most states........deceptive practices in excess of 5k.

jtwax · December 19, 2004 11:36PM

I sent this seller an email and here is his reply:

You asked:
"The cent you are selling is NOT a doubled die. Felony fraud is a very big deal. Tread lightly. Good luck."

Hello, The Bids are false No one will win this coin. It is a ebay fishing expedition bet between my friend & I, So far I am winning Thank You For Your Honest & Caring Heart & your e-mail. It is Great To Know there are good people in this world today!! Thank You & Have a Great Week!! Harvey

Russ · December 19, 2004 11:58PM

He cancelled all the bids with this explanation:

<< Wrong Discription Double Die Only an Error Coin Thank You For Your Bids >>

Russ, NCNE

tlhoy · December 20, 2004 1:45AM

Ok, so he fixed his auction but what about his shill bidding?
