Holy Mess!
That is shameful.
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.
Rarely do I like to use the term, but I think "LOL" applies well here.
<< <i>$50 per coin grading from this company?!

30 day turn around, too. All they have are MS67 or MS70 grade labels. A monkey can be trained to seal the slabs. Pfft.

Better said : Who in the World are the Coin Graders ?
I know who they are - they're the layed-off graders from the
grading company that was attempting to sue everyone and their
brother here and accross the street...so no names mentioned.

Coin collecting is not a hobby, it's an obsession !

"This a WCG graded coin in an excellent MS-66 Proof Like condition. This coin lists at $100,000.00 in this condition"
I'll be smart and bid $99,000 and sell it for $100,000!
and sTONER, it's Douchebags!

New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

LOL, i apologize, it wont happen again,,
<< <i>and the PL designates "Poor Luster". >>
I was thinking Pathetic Loser; buyer or seller-take your pick.
Hmm.
I guess I dont get it. The other MS67 turds he has listed look to be at least AU, most BU. Probably have lots of other "problems" for sure. But this? THIS? Why did he do this? I mean it was a "great thing" what he was doing with the BU looking coins. Why screw it all up with this embarassment?
coin sent. emailed all the shipping informarmation. buyer doesn't check his emai

Reply by lawrenceofscottsdale: coin returned not as described, had to fight for refund grading svc. a joke
I guess he can't see pictures. Did the pictures look anywhere near mint state anything... to anyone?

<< <i>That may indeed be the most overgraded coin I have ever seen. The "PL" designation is beyond ludicrous. >>
AGREED! At least they didn't include "cameo" in the description! And this guy is a Power Seller too! Yikes!

A sample of His great feedback LOL
For this reason alone all of us must become more proactive in denouncing these frauds.
Lawrence spent two hundred and change on a coin that at best would grade vf and worth $65 if it's not cleaned. Though obviously a newbie even he returned it. How many have not?
Like everyone else I can't fathom why he couldn't see from the picture that the coin is pure crap. And the seller didn't even try to photoshop the image. He was that confident that there are enough newbies that wouldn't have the foggiest idea what a ms 66 should look like.
A second issue: it's becoming increasingly difficult to sell properly graded coins on ebay since the proliferation of these crapslabbers/sellers. A lot of uninformed buyers would naturally rather have a ms 68 coin for the same price or less than my ho-hum PCGS ms 64. Especially if they are led to believe it might be worth $50,000 or more.

The priceless ingredient in any coin transaction is the integrity of the dealer.

Tell me about it. I went to eBay after the frustration of consignment fees and bad/no lot descriptions from the big houses. Put some very nice coins for sale and either didn't sell or lost money. Bidders are looking for bargains (like everywhere else too) but also seem to think anything on the bay has to have something wrong with it.

A self grader decides to use a 100 point system...... uses VG-F-VF coins and lists them as MS-50 - MS-70 on his scale (every coin being mint state with varying degrees of wear...... All semantics and double talk, but it's the garbage that works)......
TITLE in LARGE LETTERS MS-60....... Explanation of HIS grading scale hidden on HIS "ABOUT ME" page.........
MISLEADING, YES!!!!!! ..... Illegal, I'm not sure, although I doubt it....... (They could always claim that they are using the standard established by the new GB slabbing company CGS)
