Re: Has anyone else rec'd. an email from Daniel Canup (Kryptonite Comics) since his sentencing?
It is hard enough dealing with "real" scammers, but you have to look out for fake ones as well. Sometimes I hate the Internet. It is worse than the Wild West.... The potential for abuse should have been foreseen and addressed by the brainiacs who invented it - the were very smart but also very stupid. There is (virtually… -
Re: A guy walks into a local coin store and says...
<< <i>Ideally, the market should drive these guys out of business. But, we know that isn't the case from the proliferation of hotel buyers and $cash4gold scammers that have popped up everywhere. >> The market would drive them out of business if sellers cared enough to make an effort to maximize the price they get for their… -
Re: German Silver......I have been talking and complaining
<< <i> << <i>The same holds true to: CLAD, PLATED, 100 MILL(s), GERMAN OR NICKEL SILVER along with TIBETAN SILVER. Those bars have NO BULLION value and contain NO, or if lucky, a small amount of PLATED silver or gold. >> Ebay will nuke reported items above if they are listed in silver or gold bullon categories. >> True,… -
Re: I'm still liking the 76'ers.......for next year!
I guess it's possible as well that some chat in private messages may have been the reason. I'm not accusing any particular ex-member of anything like that because I cannot possibly know, but say somebody was real nice on the public forum, but then tried to lure targeted members with some sort of scheme in private chat. I… -
Re: Brief ebay rant... talk is cheap, how about a FVF discount?!
eBay jumped the shark quite some time ago. The good old days are over. I think someone would almost have to be crazy to put high value items on eBay. The scammers, unreasonable buyers, free returns, defects, items hidden in search, etcetera have become too much. In five years, eBay could be little more than a memory. You… -
Re: I win item, seller never ships, I win case to get a refund, ebay removes my neg. (?)
Heh. The ebay feedback policy has this on it's "allowed feedback" list: "While insulting language, like "fraud," "liar," "cheater," "scam artist," or "con man," is strongly discouraged, Feedback containing such language won't be removed unless it also contains some type of content that isn't allowed. " So, this isn't… -
Re: Name the on thing that you like the most about grading with
Protection for the card/authenticity/investment Dislike---Labels have changed way too much. It's like someone could not think outside the box a little and know that scammers are loving this. They're waiting for another label change. Let me understand this. Let's put a $50,000 card in a holder with a certain label and… -
Re: calling storm... or any other ebay afficionado
<< <i>I would respond thru the control panel. MANY requests for partial refunds are scams. Often, the scammers will vanish if you tell them to return the item for a full refund. The "buyer" will/may NEG you no matter what you do. After you refund, put the guy on your BBL. ............................. By October, the new… -
Re: Screw this...its obvious im not gonna get any card offers, just conversation about idiot dabeef and
Yeah it's sad when someone like dabeef speaks with out knowing facts...That he sides with Yanksfan who has ripped more people off here than you can count on both hands...And some newbie dude who was listed as a scammer on other sites over Ski who has been here and always made good on his deals even the one with… -
Is anyone familiar with scott512 on forums
I got a e=mail from a person responding to my WTB on BST and she says she is not on forum but her friend "scott512" referred her to sell me a coin. Sounds like a repeat of scammers on BST of late. She only gave me that name after me pressing her for more info and I am posting this as info I would not do any transaction…
