So how many IKE Sets did this guys Grandfather really Have??

19Lyds19Lyds Posts: 26,503 ✭✭✭✭
Do you suppose this fellow's grampa really had this many IKE sets all mounted up in DANSCO albums or do you his grampa also collected IKE's by the ROLLS (Including Proofs). Kinda strikes me as unusual since most grampa's that collected the classic stuff this mtc3015 fellow sells wouldn't go near an Eisenhower dollar.

I know he's sold nearly a dozen or so of these for really outreageous prices over the past year and a half and given this latest round I'm kinda wondering how legit this fellow really is.

BTW, if you think for one second that I'm jealous or suspicious over the "prices" he gets..............................







you'd be right. image
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    This guy has been the topic of many threads here, and to date - not one person here has said whether his coins were ok or not- fact is has anyone won an auction of his?

    I just looked at the 8 Frankies he is selling- these are not even dcam's and he has $103. on it so far.

    he has shillers can't be that legit.

    has anyone ever approached this guy to come here to 'chat' with us about his inheritance?

    I think he's bogus.

    Yup...He's been selling his "Grandfathers" coins for over a year. Grandfather must have had a wharehouse full of coins...

    Is this the "FDC" guy?

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    another

    or

    another 1


    Bottom line....STAY AWAY....I threw $1800 to get $400 worth of coins and a $1400 lesson. Learn from my mistake, please.

    The images in this auction are identical to the ones used in this auction that ended in Nov. '08

    Link-a-fied

    This makes me suspicious that these Ike have been recently Dansco'ed.

    (Hey, maybe they were put together by his Grandfather, but only just last week, it does not specify?)

    This guy again, huh? IMO he is absolutely bogus. I think a dozen Ike sets is an understatement. His prices realized are BS. What i don't understand, though, is even if he has schillers I find it hard to believe so many out there would pay $300 for those sets repeatedly. Makes one wonder how many of his auctions are won by the schillers themselves.

    Bill- did you send this stuff back to him, did you leave a negative for him?

    I see he has 1 negative since he has been on ebay.

    Yeah this guy has shill bidders, and I'd venture to guess that if you just happen to be the runner up- he comes to you with a 2nd chance offer. Is he scum? probably, but I won't play into his little scam game.

    Too bad- I would like to see him come here and post, it would be interesting. His grandaddy must have been a dealer in the midwest....

    I didn't know what that stood for so I had to look it up. It's basically the monetary system that was used prior to the decimal system. (pounds, shillings, pence)

    Here's the wiki article

    Hey FloridaBill, I just wanted to say you are very brave bidding very strongly on raw material on ebay. I would have sent all those coins back, JMO. I hope you were able to work it out. This guy is 100% BS.
