rtebeest, hes basically selling culls in an extremely over-glorified manner to trick people into paying non-cull prices.

I'd like to add mythings42 to the list, he's an e-bay seller who sold an 1868 and an 1871 IHC that were obvious fakes. Both coins were sold 04/30/2010. He had a number of other listings that I can't confirm as counterfeit but they sure looked suspicious. The IHCs were consistent with Chinese counterfeits.

Sorry I won't read the whole thread, but is there a list of sellers who send coins that smell like cigarette smoke? How do you get the smell out?

Numismaticbureau- I know he is part of the comprehensive list but I just would like to take the opportunity to agree completely and urge everyone to avoid this seller at all costs. This person obviously participates in shill bidding. On more than a couple occasions I have put in a large bid at the end of the listing only to lose it in the last second. Every time though, I receive a second chance offer of my maximum bid. Maybe I am looking too much into this but it just really seems fishy to me.

I would not recommend flcoins....I first sent this guy an offer over email to buy one of his coins off ebay, and offered $15 below his start price taking into account fees. He abruptly refused and I asked him if he had taken into account fees because I wasn't used to abrupt refusals like that for serious, very reasonable offers. Then he sent me an accusatory email about how I should have known this and that and how I was trying to 'bully' him into accepting my offer =/ I responded assertively about how I didn't agree with what he was saying or taking what I was saying. He obviously didn't like this and bombed my DSR's for no good reason, since he bought some small time coin from me later on. This guy is vindictive and condescending. Avoid.

Can someone provide me details as to why chuck_furjanic_inc is on the list? I don't see anything here in the thread to suggest it, and he appears to have some decent early stuff, but don't want to commit if the consensus is he's someone to avoid. Thanks.

He over grades and does not describe (even obvious) cleanings well, IMO. At least that was my experience. Then he made me eat shipping fees = / It's been reported that many of his coins, when sent to TPG's, come back with problems etc

This seller is not recommended RLH Enterprises, Inc. (r l h e @ n e y r o n i x . c o m) has issued a full refund for your payment. Oh yeah, after contacting ebay & no communication from seller. Thanks, PayPal

Yeah, that guy really needs to adjust his business strategies, which includes to stop shilling if he is (threads about this on other forums)

"booksmusicetc" J.C. Reed from Denver, Colorado. booksmusicetc@peoplepc.com threatens, uses foul language, abuses in every way you can imagine the buyer and after all that, even begs for positive feedback. See my thread :) My opinion, stay away as much as possible.

ebay seller dreamerscott. In my opinion they mislead their customer by providing inaccurate Charlton trend values for their coins. In this ad 110624126715 they say the Charlton trend for a 1969 ms-65 is $50 (now changed to $40). The Charlton trend is $15 from the most recent edition 2011. His other coins show inflated and incorrect values as well. They called me a liar when I told him the real trend. Became very hostile to my question. Cheers
