Re: Whats up with people on this board backing out of deals!?!?!?
<< <i>This is like the fifth straight time someone has made a offer, said they would do the deal and ended up saying they cant do it! If you cant complete the deal dont offer! This board is really getting a bad rep. >> Getting a bad rep...it has a bad rep already. Just look at all the scammers that are posted here weekly.… -
Re: Camera suggestions.
<< <i> That online shop is one of the scammers out of NYC. Stay far, far away from this seller. Don't believe me, look HERE >> Thanks Mike I am definately going to find another dealer for this. I am still placing my order next week, probably with bhphoto.com who I deal with all of the time. Unfortunately it will cost $$$… -
Re: Please don't tell me this is a fake, I just bought it.
Same seller, also an 1871 dollar, feedback for this item was negative because the buyer said it was a "cast fake." Also the "I know nothing about coins and all sales are final" are common terms scammers use. There's also two other negatives this seller has which accuse him of selling fakes. Between the multiple accusations… -
Re: Ethics Question
While it may not be unethical, I don't see this turning out well also. The seller may view you as a scammer with something else up your sleeve. Take your time... purchase when you see an opportunity... flip it. Perhaps your suggestion might work, AFTER you have a well established relationship with a certain seller. All I… -

Re: How often do dealers encounter sellers of counterfeit silver dollars?
6 or 7 years ago I had a guy come in trying to sell a group of Chinese bust dollars. I just threw him out. I should have called the police. He ended being quite the scammer up and down the east coast. There were weekly stories in 'Coin World' about him after he was caught. Other than that, I don't remember seeing any of… -
Re: Here's a new eBay problem. How would you handle it?
Asking, "Why didn't you contact me sooner?" invites further contact from the buyer/scammer. Stating, "It's been 6 1/2 months and the package can no longer be tracked. You should have contacted me sooner," is more final. Had you shipped insured, the time limit for filing a claim is 60 days (APO/FPO/DPO is 180 days). The… -
Re: american caramel joe jackson PSA 1 on ebay
If you look at the prior feedback they are all baseball cards. The photo quality of the Yogi Berra is the same as the Joe Jackson primary scan. The fact that there are multiple photos I believe is a good thing. A lot of the scammers have one photo. When you look at the sellers other listing the Mantle looks mint and I… -
Re: First time I've seen this feedback rating before...
Not just a minus-1 feedback rating, but the neg is for nondelivery. Of an expensive rare gold coin. Even those people who bid hundreds or even thousands of dollars on Chinese 1804 dollar replicas or "1870-CC" silver eagles are going, "dude, how stupid do you think we are?" I guess bidders don't have a monopoly on… -
Re: I actually received an SBA in change yesterday!
<< <i><<the citizens of Ecuador>> I know many dollar coins are circulating there? Do they also use the US dollar bill? What is the ratio? >> since the SBA and Sac dollars were such miserable failures here with the US public, huge bags of them were sent as foreign aid by the US government to Ecuador. Unlike here, they…
