Quote:You have multiple listings that are in violation of this requirement that items with a starting bid of $2500 of more MUST receive a numeric grade from an approved TPG. Ironically, one of your listings that violates this policy is a 1793 cent ( 301715266084). I see nothing here that violates ebay policy. Front and back of slab, accurate description as far as I'm concerned, and the buyer can make his own decisions on whether to buy or not buy the coin based on the sellers description/terms. So this is a details coin and no numeric grade. Is he supposed to put nothing then in title and description? swcoin.ecrater.com

The scam/fraud that g048406 is complaining about is an actual scam that hurts buyers and the collective ebay community. Even if g048406's listings may have had a few infractions (I don't see anything wrong with them), he is a proffessional coin dealer who operates a brick-and-mortar store who provides this extra information with the intent to help the buyer, not to make the buyer pay what the seller wants at a number far above what the coin is worth. How about this? I put a coin up for action that is in my own slab with an MS-65 designation and the high-retail correspoding value on it, and show this extra information only in the pictures and not write anything about it in the title and description. I am technically following ebay rules, but I know that the coin is AU, but I still try to represent it for something better than what it is. An inexperienced and uninformed individual may pay a lot more than the coin is worth because he/she does not know what he/she is doing and trusts my "proffessional" opinion because my coin is in a slab. I get an unscrupulously earned bonus profit, annd the buyer gets stuck with a coin which he/she paid too much for and does not know it. Which is the real scam? Edited by TypeCoin971793

The real problem with what wholesalecoins99 is doing is that it flat out violates ebay's rules. If ebay is not going to enforce their shilling rules, than they need to revise their rules. Edited by g048406

One of those new links differs from the original two posted, which I also saw myself linked to two different PCGS slabs.

The original two auction links posted were NOT the same coin. The second go round posted by g048406 were the same coin. The only person getting screwed here is ebay. |

Any grades in an image of a raw coin (non-compliant slab) must be obscured according to ebay rules. |
