I noticed this ebay store from Serbia. Looks like a lot of ancient fakes. I tried to contact him but his ebay contact does not work. I did a ebay report but often that won't help.

Here's a couple of his coins:

Thanks Victor for having that fake sellers list. Thanks Coinfrog for commenting. I wish ebay would care more about deleting these fakers. Some unknowing people are bidding/buying these, it's sad they or their descendants will someday realize they've been taken.

Livingwater:

Check your mail and see all the free furnace inspections from companies who will always find something wrong and charge you for things for a furnace that an honest HVAC person would call just fine but they still somehow get to advertise. Or all the calls from people saying they sell cable or have a business rebate or countless other things AT@T and the others can't seem to stop. And sure it would be nice if ebay worked to stop sellers from places like Serbia who are selling fake things, but in San Jose California where the ebay home office is located they closed recently the CVS as they can't stop crime at all and they just had to go. Things will only get worse and worse across the board it seems. Think of it this way: 30 years ago or 20 years ago you lived a normal life. Now we say we get a ton of "spam" calls. But they are not "spam" or whatever that even means. Your phone, all day long, in our modern world, has criminals directly calling you. We have accepted criminals will call us all day and all we wish to do is "block" them, we don't even say anymore we want that stopped at the source. Look at what we have come to accept in this modern world sadly.

If/when searching for ancients on ebay, stick with the known good guys. Like ebay's cody111111 (a.k.a. Dr. Sinski's Ancients - a.k.a. our own louisvillekyshop) or mi-294 (our own Micha).

Thank you so much for sharing your list. Since bad sellers almost always make for bad buyers, I've added all of the IDs on your list to my block list!

The percentage of fake coins on the ebay ancient coins pages is getting depressing.

Yes exactly @paul. I reached my tipping point with ancients on ebay over a decade ago and haven't purchased any coins from that platform except from CCF members since then. I greatly prefer vcoins and ma-shops as aggregators of multiple sellers.
