I would advise caution with this eBay seller.

This coin was previously listed with the same images under another account.

That account was subsequently NARU'd and the auction nuked. Same thing with the 1965 and 1966 this seller has listed. I can't say for certain if this is the same seller, but it seems too hinky to take a risk.

    Yep I bid on one of those coins before. Ebay nuked the auction. I agree with Russ-proceed with caution.

    Definitely stay away from them! No off brands ( 3rd Tier ) to bid on now so stay away from potentially upgradeable PCGS coins. Sage advice. The sellers terms are horrible, he will even accept your check!

    airedale,

    I don't think anyone is saying that the coins are bad, just to many "red flags"! 1) The exact three coins were up for auction just a few weeks ago and eBay ended the auctions. 2) New account with low feedback history. Just remember the old saying, "If it sounds to good to be true then it probably is!"

    If I were to sell a few "high end" coins for the first time and I had a new account with low feedback, if I wanted the best price that could be had then I would probably have cosigned the coins with someone that had already established themselves in the coin community so bidders would feel more comfortable bidding. image

    Yep!

    You can't link an NARUed seller nor can you link an auction that's been nuked.

    This is word of mouth from the Master himself and his advise is always credible!

    And no I'm not kissing Russ's behind as the facts remain that he is seldom wrong.

    Not protecting anyone, regardless of what your butt buddy BiddelsBank says. I would like to bid strong on two of the auction but with the new account and low feedback with the fact that the same coins were delisted a few weeks ago by eBay, I have to agree with Russ that it is not worth the gamble. But feel free to bid strong yourself on eBay for the one listed there and maybe you will get a real MS68 CAM Kennedy.image

    Then you could buy them for $3.00, crack them out, get 'em graded at a " respectful TPG " and sell them for moon money. Those days are over, cut your hair and go get a job.

    No profile shown, no PM enabled, and plenty of disrespect and badmouthing.

    I doubt anyone takes you seriously around here, particularly since you seem to revere a loon that was banned for being loonie and then some.

    If I ever say I'm going to bid $1,300 with a seller who has 9 feedbacks on an auction (especially a silver Kennedy) where Russ suspects that he's seen the same coins offered by another seller, based on the images...........................please smack me with a baseball bat and wake me up.

    Does anyone have comparative auction results data for PCGS vs. ANACS on SMS and Proof Kennedys? Just curious.

    BTW, those halves sure don't look like there's much cameo about them, no offense (except maybe the 1965, and certainly the 1959 below your signature line for sure). My point is that PCGS and ANACS apparently do have significant differences between them in making both grade and cameo designations.

    I don't understand your problem with Russ's pointing out a potential problem which could cost you significant money with a newbie (and possibly suspect) seller.image

    Not to defend or offend anyone here, but you simply can't judge cameo contrast from a flatbed scan. Go look in the Heritage archives is you don't believe me.

    Thanks.
    Other than the Franklin's the most expensive coin there was $53.00 going down to $22.00 . Funny but not 15 minutes before this had started I took that scan and posted it out of boredom elsewhere on this forum.
