Re: Is this real or fake email from Lord knows who?
It's a scam, Boom. I've gotten it a few times already also and reported them to ebay. Ya gotta wonder if anything is ever done about them. I've also gotten scammers from "yahoo", asking the same kind of personal info. Both of these companies state that they would never ask you for such info via e-mail. #1 rule is to never… -
Re: Why would you risk your $ ?
I've seen a lot of sellers with great feedback who are obviously scam artists. And, unfortunately, they do quite well for themselves. Yea, verily. There are a lot of ignorant buyers out there praising scammers to the heavens for their supposed "good deals." I buy somewhat expensive raw foreign coins on eBay because 1) I… -
Re: Are you tired of fraud? How much have you lost?
<< <i>The seller has provided the following information in response to your complaint, indicating that the item was shipped. Tracking Company: Other Tracking Number: 000000000 >> This shows you how much interest PayPal takes in complaints that are filed. A human isn't even involved, it's all handled by computer. And… -
Re: This is a bad one - eBay reportable

Re: 1929 nationals
Depends on the how badly the note is cut - the key thing is whether or not it is cut into the design. A tight margin will have virtually no impact unless it is a super-common note which is only worth more if well centered. If it's on a very rare bank, then the effect is negligible. You have to remember that the sheets were… -
Re: Surprising Ebay experience
Sorry to hear about this. NOTHING nowadays preturbs me more than scammers, thieves, hackers, and phishers. And most all are internet based. -Contact the Postal Inspector and explain to them that you have evidence of packing and sealing the coins securely. -Call ebay everyday and present them with your case/evidence and try… -
Re: how ebay can prevent bogus listings in hijacked accounts
<< <i>The best thing you can do for yourself is to never log in to anything via a link that you click. Always open a new window and type www.ebay.com or www.paypal.com - this doesn't help for people who aren't aware of this, though. >> Yes it does. When they give up their account password via phishing it will still take a… -
Re: Interesting email I got from Centsles re: Ebay coin policy
What I find amusing is how he infers conflict of interest by others yet he purveys his own overgraded self-slabbed NNC crap. Gimme a break. This is just one more "that's not fair" schoolyard whine from one of many power scammers that are going to (hopefully) see a reduction in their bottom line thanks to ebay finally… -
Re: ***PCGS Service Announcement - New "Genuine" Service***
I like the idea of getting problem coins into slabs, it potentially takes thousands off the market for these ebay scammers and may create another market for these coins, however I also think the problem should be noted on the slab. I know it does not take much to crack a slab, but at least a few will remain in them. The… -
Re: If I sell a very expensive coin on ebay ..........
<< <i>if you remove the money from your paypal account right away- then does a charge back still work? >> Not if you close the paypal account before the chargeback. The only recourse the buyer has is to come after you legally. If you delivered what he paid for then you've got no worry. If he's a scammer he won't be coming…
