Re: ALERT !! Tyler Doubled Edge Lettering - Overlapped - ALERT !!
It is kinda screwy but it is what it is. I've posted it before but here's the layout: Position A (BTW, this "letter positioning variety" was in direct response to scammers calling them errors and selling them as such) Position B (BTW, this "letter positioning variety" was in direct response to scammers calling them errors… -
Re: Ebay/Paypal Fraud Experience
Wow, just realized that first post was obscenely long, sorry. Re: Mark's question... Conder101 answered it, and again... it's even worse. eBay allows a seller (or someone who's hijacked a seller's account) to do just that AND have the Paypal payment go to an account NOT belonging to the hijacked eBay seller. Even worse… -
Re: Calling 80's wax pack experts (not named Gary)
A couple hints for examining wax packs that I've pieced together through the years. 1) The seal. These were made by literally melting the wax in the paper. A re-sealed pack might be too tight because it was made with glue. Or it might have been sealed with an iron or something that was too hot and left a brown burn. 2) The… -
Re: POLL: Do you accept returns on slabbed coins you sell on eBay?
<< <i>A PayPal purchase funded with a credit-card obviates virtually ANY "no refund policy." >> So even though you know you know it's technically meaningless, you have a "no-return" policy for slabbed coins. I don't get it. An experienced scammer is going to know your policy is BS and ignore it if he wants to scr*w you.… -

Re: Warning - New eBay Scan to Steal your Password - Tricky
Another one I received tonight pretended to be from PayPal, telling me a "foreign IP address" had tried to access my account, and if I didn't click on the link and confirm my information my account would be suspended. The whole email was an imbedded image, except for the link. No text at all, so when I forwarded it to… -
Re: eBay selling fake coins and holders again...
So many solutions to this problem. They could hire a numismatic team to review and approve listings before they go live. Take necessary actions to prosecute repeat scammers. Or if they are not willing to pony up any dough, they could add trusted moderators to pull listings. -
Re: PSA. Got a Phishing text this morning
These scammers are scumbags. :rage: -
Re: How come all the coins on eBay are junk?
<< <i>Many reasons but one important one is that sellers do not want to take a hit. Seller has to make a choice---a) start low with no reserve and take your chances or b) start out at your min. acceptable and that discourages bidding frenzy. Ebay 'sleaze factor' has just driven away a lot of potential bidders and I doubt… -
Re: Analysis of the latest BLUE MOON deal - the Grifter and the Rube
<< <i>I equate CU publishing the PCGS price guide to the parent who leaves a loaded gun where a child can find it. It has been the weapon of choice for dozens of eBay scammers. On mutiple occasions HRH has been questioned on this and he has not done anything about it. >> IT is always someone elses fault!! I don't know what…
