Re: Is this the same coin??? If so another ebay scam
I don't defend scumbags, but neither do I condemn the innocent. Understand that someone who hasn't the faintest idea how to get a picture up on EBay may just know how to "use" someone else's pic to help advertise their own coin that is for sale. That would seem like a perfectly innocent thing for a noob to do. However… -
Re: PayPal fined $150,000 ....
Paypal is still holding $175 of my money hostage because I got scammed... I got taken on an $850 purchase... Paypal refused to reverse the charge, so I filed with American Express and they found in my favor and denied the payment to Paypal... how do they resolve it? They suspend me for violating the user agreement (by… -

<< <i>I really think laizse-faire (Sorry, can't remember proper spelling) isn't the best thing for the hobby though... it's what allows the scammers to survive, and rip off unsuspecting collectors... >> If pure laissez-faire capitalism was best for the hobby, you wouldn't see a lot of numismatists rushing to expose… -
Re: Coinguy1 is a real troublemaker...
Often, I am tempted to expose numerous sellers on Ebay, for the scammers and crooks that they are. But, I try to be fair and selective about it. I will hit them with the negative feedback when I know they are selling a coin they couldn't possibly own or when I know the coin is fake. For example, in the auction linked in… -
Re: Teletrade auctions...
BOOM... Guess you never went to local country auctions just for the hell of it. You always knew who was bidding and what they were looking for. One didn't need a feedback profile to know, because you often knew them personaly. Why do people want to keep their buying habits so secret at auction now. Sorry, people do have a… -
CP Nostalgia
Hello All! I am a 20+ year collector. I joined PSA a couple of months ago and have read these posts with great interest. The knowledge and experience found on this board is impressive! Back in the mid 80's I purchased a lot of autographed Hall of Fame Plaques from a company called CP Nostalgia (or C&P Nostalgia - can't… -
Re: What kind of grading; this 41 years old Wayne Gretzky rookie card?
Well if you start it at 99cents, it is not like that eBay can cap the bids, that would be insane. 2nd, if you are brand new and have like no feedback, then you may not get the bids you desire, as items sold by low feedback sellers are always a crap shoot in terms of the prices they get. Hopefully you have high feedback as… -
Re: 10% eBay Bucks for items $25+, 8% everything else
Hey countdouglas, I would double-check with eBay if that offer is legitimate or not. I received an email allegedly from eBay about an hour ago saying the same thing. However, when I looked in my eBay inbox, the Bucks offer was not there. So I just chatted online with eBay (I'm a Concierge member; it's one of the benefits),… -
Re: Deal on the BST gone wrong **avenue7 is the userid**
<< <i> << <i>Totally sucks. One thing that I have done is, unless it is a low amount, I don't buy from new folks (sorry). I particularly watch and see if the seller participates on the coin forums or only the BST. >> It sucks but what can one do aside from take the right steps to rectify it. I'm sure I'll have my money… -
Re: HCGS - Hallmark Third party grading service trainwreck
<< <i> << <i>I've spoke w/ eBay about these crappy Third World Slabs and I am working w/eBay to help tackle this issue. >> This is a very worthwhile goal. Good luck with it!
