Re: Unopened Experts, Urgent Help Needed (update: eBay closed case in my favor :) thanks everyone!)
<< <i>Just wait til people start creating bogus BBCE shrink wrap. Anyone who keeps those boxes sealed will never know. Exactly. With boxes and wax packs, you just don't know what's inside. This is a scammer's dream come true because it could be years before a wrapped box or a slabbed wax pack gets opened, if it ever does.… -
Re: Liar Liar Pants on Fire
Ok, lets take this one particular example one step further. Those looking to buy this card, in my opinion, would fall into two categories: the die hard collector, looking to either add this to his PC, set registry or player collection.

Re: eBay's acquisition of PayPal
There is very little eBay can do to prevent these kind of things. BUT the recent ones I received are actually using ebay URL's and a "cross-site" scripting like bug in an eBay code module.

A few days later you get a second chance offer from the supposed seller but it really is a scammer. The scam has gotten more sophisticated as scammers… -
Re: Ebay authenticity question
As someone who has sent a few hundred cards through the authentication program, there are no good reasons to bypass the authentication program - except for maybe getting the card a couple days faster - but the benefits outweigh the time factor. As a seller, you are protected against scammer buyers saying they got a… -
Re: These FAKE Ebay Messages get funnier very day :)
<< <i>That's a good one but you have mischaracterized it. It is a scammer e-mail, not an ebay message. Ebay bashers (and you may not be one, I don't know) love to blame ebay for all the scammers out there. Given the number of transactions ebay does there is actually a lower percentage of scam attempts there than in the… -
Re: haven't seen this ebay scam in years
scammer made purchase with hacked, legitimate account (ebay ID #1) then messaged me from a second ebay account (with the typical 0 feedback) to ship to different address. Ebay has since shut down the second ebay account. Important: now that payment is made from an ebay account and a paypal account is no longer needed,… -
Re: best way to liquidate collection?
@airplanenut is a member of this forum that will take your coins and photograph them, write description and list on eBay for a fee. You will have to decide what the best venue is for selling your collection. I can tell you that I have gotten amazing deals on GC but also seen plenty of coins go for way more than eBay. It's…
