Re: 1951 Mantle--Did PSA ever use different fonts on the same flip?
i would agree. i have actually seen a few "coin related" vendors on ebay posting fake flipped mantles. i would think the scammers are probably going in and "trading" the cards for some legit gold or coins that do not leave a paper trail. said coin shop owner thinks he's getting a deal after doing a lil research on what a… -
Re: Is the ANA truly POWERLESS and is Ebay so unbelievable greedy...
Hi gain dudes.... Yes, I have called the ANA, they only have a voice mail, I've left messages about the "looks all good to me" scammer but... they don't call back. There isn't an option to leave a complaint so, that's why I wanted to see the Ebay/ANA get togther in writing. Sorry, but... these Ebay scammers just ANGER me.… -
Re: Disturbing dealer on eBay ........OUTED !
<< <i>OP states that the seller was offering a 90 day return policy so that the buyer can have the item slabbed... that's certainly not the usual MO of a scammer. Why not link to the item in question? There seems to be no need for cloak and dagger here considering you were refunded. >> ...the seller with a feedback of over… -
Re: another stolen scan ?
phreakydancin - I'll admit that I didn't know the meaning of the word "ephemera"and didn't look it up. I was hoping it was some disease that this scammer came down with. After seeing the definition, he didn't even use the word correctly because although baseball cards were often thrown out by Moms, etc., they weren't… -
Re: EBAY private auction coin sale
Yep, I'll add my voice to the choir. While there can be legitimate reasons for private bidding, it's also a breeding ground for scammers, shillers and others who are doing things that aren't usually in a bidder's best interest. If you examine the record of a known scammer, fake seller, et cetera, you'll notice they VERY… -
SCAMS - How does one protect themself?
Being new to coin collecting I've been doing a lot (or alot haha) of reading here in the forum? It seems every day I come across threds about ebay scams. Some things just shout SCAM...like a brand new ebayer w/ no feedback selling a very rare coin worth $11,000. But then there are times when someone with an 2 year old ebay… -
Re: Beware Scam (skip over if sick of eBay talk)
this has happened to me before. you do have to call in and inform them that it was sent to a wrong address and that address is no way associated w/ your info. same scenario. actual UPS label but showed delivered to an address across town. UPS also does deliver to certain PO boxes located within UPS stores. the scammer… -
Re: I admit...I laugh when I see things like this in coin auctions on ebay...
"Maybe they think the buyer will have the integrity to not insist on being compensated for a loss if they decline to buy insurance? I know- it's a stretch, but stranger things have happened. " It is not always a question of the integrity of the buyer, but also trust in an unkown person (the seller). Coins not received will… -
Re: Unbelievable....you may want to block this guy.......UPDATE 4/23/09 in first post...WE WIN
The consensus here is that the buyer is a scammer. I agree with that conclusion. The only way to get him to return the silver, or drop the SNAD claim, is to hit him with so much legal stuff that he finds that it is better for him to return the silver or drop the claim, than put up with all of the legal stuff. So you need… -
Re: Remember Favrefan's Woodchuck story? Update entered.
But chances are they will bust this sellers b*lls while letting real scammers get away with murder. Good luck with your auction. So true! Ebay's only "rule" is that they make as much money as possible. The honest guy gets screwed over and the scammers clean up. There are many sellers who consistently sell resealed garbage…
