Re: 1 Tr Oz Maple Leaf Platinum proof ($600+ below melt)
Somebody needs to report this scammer. The auction I linked above is photo-shopped. The grade in the auction title does not match the one on the slab. I don’t know if his screwing up the picture is intentional, like a Jedi-mind-trick of some sort. Also states only 325 minted, but that is incorrect. The Mint State have… -
Re: OT - Paypal Help Re: Taiwan
I stopped taking Paypal for ANY orders outside of the US....plain and simple.. It costs a small fortune to get signature verification...if you can get it at all...atleast that was the case when I had to do it. Outside of the US is also stomping ground for scammers and highjackers of Paypal accounts...even if it says… -
Re: Wacky Ludlows
First series ludlows are also a little dicey because of the temptation for scammers to take 2nd series luds and do the ol' peel and transplant. One can usually catch this by comparing the die-cut showing through back of the card with the actual sticker (under a light source). I have all the confidence in the world in PSA… -
Re: OT-Is Paypal holding payments for Wii consoles?
PP will hold the payment. If you list them, use "Immediate Payment Required." Super-High fraud item; scammers from Europe/Africa; and, teenagers with broken units that they will return to you when they get your new one. Record the serial number, put a seller's mark on the case, and cover the screwheads with wax or… -

Re: OT: eBay buyer wants to pay via acct transfer?

<< <i>If he doesn't follow the auction rules as to payment methods, submit a non-paying bidder form. >> It's really as simple as this. He's not playing by the rules. That aside, though, I'm not sure there is much cause for panic. Wire transfer sounds impressive in America, but in Europe, like Kuhli said, it is probably the… -
Re: Ethics Scenerio. UPDATED With a TWIST!
I think anytime I am in a coin shop I m looking for something the dealer missed...that doesn't make me a scammer, it just makes me a smart shopper. Wasn't it MadMarty that found that 93-S Morgan at the pawn shop? Maybe I didn't hear the whole story, but I thought he paid like $20 for it or something? Score for him! If you… -
Re: Confussed:???????

If you are only interested in lower grade i.e. cheaper coins then RAW coins are not the much of a loss if you don't keep making the same mistake. You can learn to block out the scammers on eBay real quick, but there are also a lot of good dealers there too. If you want to get into the more expensive coins then. I would and… -
Re: I'm starting to get a little ticked
A top powerseller on ebay means absolutely NOTHING, NADA, ZIP, ZILCH Couldn't disagree more. Some of your biggest powersellers on ebay are powerSCAMMERS Couldn't agree more, if you replaced "some" with "very few". It can be both. Being a powerseller means you do a hell of a lot of successful, honest business with many… -
Re: Ebay Fraud
Bob, if a flea market operator were promoting a con-artist vendor that was selling fake coins, turning a blind eye to the transactions all for the sake of profit, I certainly would hold him accountable. Is'nt this exactly what's going on in the Trade Dollar section (and many others) on Ebay? I agree that it would be…
