Re: Was it a mistake for CW to publish the flaws in counterfeit PCGS slabs?
<< <i>This week's CW provides an excellent guide to detecting Chinese fake PCGS slabs. The problem, of course, is that the counterfeiters probably read CW. It won't be long before the fakes are perfected. Now, I suppose perfection was inevitable, but was it a good idea for CW to speed things along? >> Andy, I have often… -
Re: Simple PayPal scam (worked on me)
I thought that packages/items had to be mailed out within 7 days....but then again, it doesn't really matter cos paypal doesn't check up on that; plus the delivery confirmation never actually states when the package was dropped out or whatever. Always something new PP....sheesh. Don't feel too bad.....I was taken for $216.… -
Re: This eBay coin doctor is dangerously good.
Russ has a point, maybe not with this guy getting too good to fool anyone, but if people do come up with a "recipe" to artificially tone coins where graders cannot decipher them from NT, it will put an end to premiums for toned coins, and everyone will eventually just accept that toning may or may not be naturally occuring… -
Re: Buyer backs out of deal for $520 Unconfirmed address...
<< <i>I say screw trying to work something out. It's quite simple actually.....The buyer pays via one of the methods you listed within the auction or you file a NPB with ebay and recoup your fees. Why should you bend for this idiot? Make him follow the rules he agreed upon when he placed his bid within the auction listing.… -
Re: Not a hypothetical: I just learned a horrifying truth.
I hate to admit it, and it probably doesn't reflect well on the eternal future of my soul, but I don't have that much sympathy for her. If he made no agreement as to what should be done with the collection, and she has no idea what it is worth, and would sooner pay a stranger to appraise her stuff rather than trust a… -
Re: High bidders or buyers on ebay. How can you find their contact info.
<< <i>I'm sorry some people feel this way. I am not a scum sucker. I see a buyer that buys high end Gold coins and want to chat with him that's all. Again sorry for the question to some. >> Yaha and Tavern Treasures: I could have done a better job of wording my previous posts. I did not mean to refer to YOU as scumbags. I… -
Re: I can't believe it happened to me (Paypal).........
That won't work now. It has to be sent within 7 days of payment. It would work too the 7 day rules does not always apply. I recently filed on a seller who after 15 days never shipped the item, he then shipped the wong item with DC. I did not close it because once you file and close the dispute that is the end of it you… -
Re: Returns allowed or not?
Scammers aside, I cannot understand why any seller won’t offer a 7 day return policy. Especially on Certified coins, which are the EASIEST to sell… and resell if you got a return on one… I’ve never had any slabbed coins retuned (real slabs not the fake self-slabbed crap) I think I had one return this year or it might have… -
Re: Can someone explain how an ebay account is hijacked?
The e-mail you recieved did not come from the referenced e-bayer. The scammer just picked his ID as an identity to represent. Clicking on the link almost certainly caused no problem. I click on them all the time and my spyware/virus software never finds anything there. What they wanted you to do is to log into their fake… -
Re: Manhattan Project Silver Melt...are we being duped?
There does not seem to be much interest on this topic...I guess not enough controversy/no e-bay scammers/nothing to grade/no polls This coincidence made me respond to my own thread: I just heard Robert Chambers @ 12:54 PM CST (games no on yet) refer to the Manattan Project where they (the US Government) melted 40,000,000…
