Once again, do these look like the same coin?

TayTay · January 1, 2012 11:03AM

Unfortunately, this is from the same eBay seller as my last post, and is also a raw problem coin that appears that it may have been won very recently on Teletrade in a problem slab (NGC UNC details, Improperly Cleaned). Sellers description:

Very rare date 97-S DMPL , Stunning CAMEOS , Looks Solid GEM. We are listing loads of coins from a Private Collection both Raw and Slabbed . From a very picky collector , GREAT STUFF!!

Raw eBay Morgain

Teletrade Morgan

My last post was a whizzed Large Cent bought and sold in the same manner....

You can see the remaining of the shadow from the prongs in the reverse picture that they tried to crop out.

Same coin.

braddick · January 1, 2012 11:12AM

Wow. That guy is something else.

TURBO · January 1, 2012 11:19AM

Anyone contact this guy just to let him know we know what he's up to??

Same coin...!!!

lkeigwin · January 1, 2012 11:25AM

Yeah, I did. On the earlier auction. I didn't let on...I just said I see it has NGC prongs, how did it grade? No answer.

Is there an easy way to add him to an e-Bay ignore list?

DRUNNER · January 1, 2012 1:19PM

Again . . . noted. I won't be bidding on any more Doilies or anything else from this seller.

Not cool. He didn't even take the time to try to cover it up! Obviously the photo is of the coin still in the holder.

morgantype · January 1, 2012 1:31PM

Survey says, yes!

joefro · January 1, 2012 1:32PM

Well, he is already up to 50 percent profit compared to the Teletrade sale price. Hope it gets nuked.

+1 I had purchased a certified coin (PCGS PL Morgan) from him before, and I definitely won't be bidding on any more of his items.

g048406 · January 1, 2012 4:28PM

There is no question....... that is definitely the same coin. This guy will be tough to stop because all his listings are "private", thus, the buyers can not be alerted to this scam. Ebay needs to stop allowing private listings.

This is really pathetic!
I sure am learning a lot on these forums.
Thanks to all.

kerikow · January 1, 2012 7:49PM

i wouldn't buy an apple from that seller, and I think he sells under different names as well

Manorcourtman · January 1, 2012 9:11PM

Someone send him a link to this thread. I cannot access ebay from work

DuPapa · January 1, 2012 10:22PM

I think he already read this thread.
It got ended early...

I always hope people get temporarily driven to dishonesty by circumstance and have no other recourse.

... and then there are some people that are simply dishonest.

ricko · January 1, 2012 11:36PM

History of this seller seems to indicate it is standard practice.... scam artist.... Cheers, RickO

A review of "mississippi-pickers" eBay user ID history shows no less than 10 different ID's used in 10 years. Looks like a lame attempt to cover up some "muddy" tracks.

Ibnemo · January 2, 2012 1:12AM

Great Detective work. This Forum is an unbelievable wealth of information.
Thanks to all that contribute and Happy New Year.

Was this seller the "Savannah Seller" or Savannah Something discussed several years ago?
