    Don't you get NARU'd on E-Bay after your feed back falls below a certain level?

    OTOH, any bidder who looks at this guy's images and believes his grade assessments pretty much deserves what they get.

    Great detail and luster? I do believe that the detail and luster have been worn off of this one.

    Maybe he just imaged the wrong 29-D. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    Why is this clown still on eBay? Compared to all the other sellers there, even the bad ones, he is an embarassment to eBay.

    Russ, doesn't someone have a contact inside eBay who can get a clown like this removed?

    This guy is among the very worst on ebay. People buy this crap and leave positives cause they dont know better at least not yet. I am amazed he has only 10 negs so far, bottom of the bottom feeder for sure.

    A few funny FBs:

    "Coin not a MS60 more like good. Check picture before bidding on coins."

    DUH LOOK AT THE PICTURE? image

    Maybe he should have read the previouse feedbacks: image

    "crap! said mint state 65,look vf 30. if pitcher is fussey or distent watch out"

    Then this item description, it's RED but XF-20? image

    "1893 RED INDIAN HEAD PENNY IN XF-20 OR BETTER CONDITION"

    Wait a minute!! I sure wouldn't call that a Gem, with the stain above IE and that darkness around the mintmark. But, I guess with the Deluxe Holder, I'd let it pass.image.image.image.image.image.image.image.image

    He needs to get a Coin World holder and lable it MS 66 and that baby will sell. Just like those SGS, NNC and you know the rest of that junk stuff.
  • BlackBeardBlackBeard Posts: 1,064 ✭
    If you check the bad feedback and look at the pics...image did the buyers expect the coin to improve during shipping? On at least one of the indians you can't even see liberty, that would be considered a strong clue in most circles that it's not an MS coin. Oh, and the 1929-D, that's hilarious.

    I gave him a fair chance to respond. I asked if he really was clueless or if he was trying to scam the buyers on eBay?

    This guy is the biggest POS I have seen on EBAY yet. image

    The sad thing is: look at all of the lowest common denominators that are purchasing from him!

    Pathetic!

    That's exactly what I am thinking. I know I'm mean and cynical (so take it for what it's worth), but when reading his auctions and feedback I keep wanting to blame the buyers. The only exception is maybe an older gentleman that cannot see so good and goes off the description alone. Okay, they get a pass. The rest, well they have no excuse. One doesn't need to know a thing about coins to look at a picture of an average circulated cull and see that it is not "mint state". For if it were mint state, then what in the hell would all their new pocket change grade? Super duper unreal gemmy duper minty state?

    Anyway, you can't rid the world (or communities) of scammers. You can only educate the potentially scammed and prevent the crime. This guy's feedback is red flag number 1. His auctions and pictures are red flag number 2. And printed in bright white letters on these red flags is the word MISREPRESENTATION! Can't do much more to protect a potential victim than the seller has already done himself! The irony is that he's the biggest mouthpiece against his auctions than anyone else could ever hope to be. But people are still buying. Can't go over to their homes and slap their hands or anything. What else can be done?

    This good Barber dime has "great detail and luster" too. It's possible that he thinks polishing = shine = luster.

    And $2.99 to ship this $1 cleaned coin to your doorstep.

    Good Barber dime with luster

    91% feedback out of 100 FB's is a sure run for the hills red flag.

    Isn't this why EBay has the feedback system in the first place? It is obvious that the seller does not have a clue on how to grade a coin and all those buyers were just stupid for thinking otherwise.

    This almost looks like some kind of a prank ID just to see how far someone could go in the misrepresentation department!
