I shoot a hole in my counterfeits. I seriously get out my SBR of choice (scary black rifle) and shoot them. It's fun and destroys them. It combines two of my hobbies perfectly! I should post some pics of holed counterfeit coins.
Edited to say: Heck yes leave a negative feedback. That's what the term "feedback" means. A record of your experience with the seller.

If I am not mistaken, once a refund is given a buyer can not leave negetive feedback. If it is posted on a refund, ebay will remove the negative feedback. A buyer can leave positive feedback that a refund was given for a counterfeit coin.

These days on ebay not quite sure what is worse. A........ The optimistic , read greedy/ clueless buyer or B...The nasty highly intelligent criminal seller who knows there are lots of A out there, or C... ebay itself who repeatedly allows both A and B to transact with each other. It is high time for the good people at ebay to regulate who can sell coins on ebay . A good start would be a requirement that any seller be a member in good standing of a recognized numismatic organization like the ANA.

Anything that will impact ebay's bottom line, will likely never happen.

I have to say, that's the most accurate breakdown I have heard in a while!

What about D Buyers who spend lots of money on things they know nothing about because they let greed get the best of them.
