have to worry about fraud.

Just read this in Sept 3rd Coin World that 1 in 10 sampled 1999 Silver Proof Sets contained Clad coins. I hope you all can spot Silver vs Clad, these people like to ruin everyones fun BEWARE.image

    Well, I pretty much figured this is why people would pay $50+ for empty shells of 1999 Silver Proof Sets.

    This is part of my motivation to get my moderns directly from the mint. No one has messed with them!

    This seller has been raking in the profits with the scam.

    He took his feedback private recently because some bidders caught on and hit him with neutrals announcing what he's been doing.

    Ebay really needs to nix the private feedback cr@p. They need to totally overhaul the feedback system so that it can work like it should. With some of the policies that Ebay has now it makes it look like they are deliberately going out of their way to protect scammers and bad sellers. JMO
