just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 10/17/2007 8:35 pm I went back and looked at the photo you first posted and then back to the one after you dipped it. Amazing difference. Now you know not to buy from that person again. As to feed back for that person, I'd say just forget it. Way to many people have others send in fanstastic feedbacks. Not worth your time. Report this Post to the Staff
Arizona Jack New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 10/17/2007 11:21 pm I have seen this seller many times on ebay. Have purchased from and sold to also. A great person and nice to deal with, BUT, there is some photo manipulation going on. None of the coins I have purchased have looked the same " in hand " as they do in the ebay pictures. Just as an experiment, I have taken both before and after pics of a cpl of this sellers coins and put a cpl photoshop wizards on it to try and duplicate the process used. Will update when I get some answers. Report this Post to the Staff
Arizona Jack New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 10/17/2007 11:23 pm Oh yeah...I actually found this thread while reading this sellers ebay feedback, left by the original thread starter I would assume. THANK YOU, this looks like a great site. Report this Post to the Staff

Arizona Jack New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 10/18/2007 2:50 pm I sent this link to the engineering dept at work, the cadcam guru blew my mind. He took your after pic and took off all the nicks and gouges ( that are not in the before pic ) in about 3 clicks. Will work on it somemore, lunchtime is over. Report this Post to the Staff

However, the color was just not right and I've seen a few Lincoln's in my time. LOL Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
