I bought this coin a couple of weeks ago (Impulse buy) and now I am trying to figure out what it's worth. I have it listed on ebay at $150 Or best offer (Trends at $185).

What do you think the coin is worth, having been heavily polished?

By the way, if anyone wants to make an offer, feel free.

As the saying goes (or should go): "A problem coin is even more of a problem when it's time to sell".

At auction I'd be surprised if it went for more than $70.

Problem coin.
$90-$100.
Problem free EF40 go for about $150.Not a hard to find date in this grade.
Keep it listed though,you never know.

Yeah, I will just leave it listed at $150 or best offer, for a while and see what kind of response I get (if any).

To attempt getting near trends for a coin with "negative" on a Certificate would be very difficult even for a Vicky! Most Collectors I know including myself would never have a problem coin in their collection.
You may try a BUY it Now @ 50% trends, see how that works?
