Re: How can we sell on Ebay any longer?
I've sold online since 1997 with a perfect rating and no prolems until about 4 years ago, right after they changed the rules, I sold a guy a car part, he complained and sent me back a box of doggie doo doo and I got the royal shaft. I don't know what part of that would have been my fault but I haven't sold a card on there… -
Re: How many got an e-mail from E-bay?
<< <i> I rceived it, too. I have NEVER sold a thing on eBay, either! And freebie or not, I don't intend to. Too many horror stories here. Enough to kill my interest. >> That's the sad thing about the internet clearing house for horror stories. I've sold close to 20,000 items on ebay in the past 4 years. I've had a few… -
Re: Legitimate PAYPAL chargebacks?
You should have the right proof of delivery - if it's over $250 you need signature confirmation, nothing else will do. If you have that, the only excuse I can think of for a buyer would be "not as described". If he found that it was altered or trimmed, after leaving positive feedback but before the time limit for filing a… -
Re: Hey! Who's the cornhole that stole my scans and put them on their website?
<< <i>. I'm all about helping folks out but I am out of pocket for all site related expenses. Considering that I'm not even breaking even on the site it would be great if someone else would ask before trying to make a buck off my work. >> I see what your saying. I don't mind about my scans being used. What they're being… -
Re: Proof Gold Eagles from the Mint
Agreed. Look at all the people who just bought Platinum. Including me. As for Gold, if they want to do 'repricing' stuff, then they should price it $50 above bullion on any given day(or what ever amount) . What if gold goes back to $600. Will they reprice downward, I doubt it. They should have left it at $770. they are not… -
Re: Can PCGS detect Laser cut Bell Lines on Franklins ?
It's threads like this and articles in Coin World about the grading practices of PCGS and NGC (the big boys get treated better than the little old mes and yous) that make me glad I sold my small coin collection. When what's raw is probably fiddled with, and then the graders are suspect, novices like me don't stand a… -
Re: Some Suspicious Man Talked To Me Outside the Balt. Show
<< <i>this guy wasn't a panhandler he would blend right in with the coin show crowd minus the mustard stains on the shirt. he was clean shaven as well and without any visible tattoos or major scars. >> May not have been a panhandler, which can be a nuisance, but sounds like a robber/scammer, which can be worse. Sounds like… -
Re: CoinWeek Article: "Do Young Coin Collectors Grow Up To Be Successful Adults?"
Sure, I think coin collecting does teach some valuable things. It forces you to be detail oriented. In the pursuit of coins, you learn about the markets and the scammers. It teaches you to be cautious, wary, and to do your "homework." I think it also could push someone to learn about history, geography, etc, based on the… -
Re: So I just took a shot in the dark... *Updated /w Pics*
One time an ebay scammer had 100 lots for sale to supposedly be given out unsearched at random to all 100 buyers, with the total value of the cards posted, far exceeding the total cost of the 100 lots...so I emailed him and told the little bastige that I was interested in buying all 100 lots and that I would be videotaping… -
Re: Suspicious EBay Seller
ebay is horrible when it comes to taking action against scammers/ rule breakers - there is this one guy i reported several times for intentially outbidding the high bidder to see his proxy bid max and then he retracts and push the auction up to just under the high bidders max - at first i thought it was a company shilling…
