Everything about that ebay listing is a big red flag.   Errers and Varietys.

But if I were looking at this ad, the only red flag I'd see is the item's location. Well location is one red flag, that he has (had 12) is another and that it is being sold for only $75 is a big third - these should be going for several hundred at that grade.  The very low seller feedback count should say something as well - at 19 logged and 10 already sold is a huge tell to stay far away. |

I'm really curious about what these buyers receive, but not $74 + shipping curious.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Yeah, you're right Dearborn, point-per-point.
No doubt if I were seriously interested in buying that coin I would've given the ad a more critical look.

One important point: this is NOT the coin you will receive. The auction listing shows a genuine 1932-D Washington quarter in an ANACS holder, which is misleading and, in my opinion, false advertising. This is exactly the issue I reported to ebay in my message. Unfortunately, once again, nothing appears to be being done about it. |

Unfortunately, you can't keep people from doing stupid things. Probably 99% of the people that buy this junk do not even bother to READ the description, terms or fine print and go straight to the "BUY" button after seeing the picture.
it's really kinda sad when you think about it.

agreed westernsky - folks see something they want and jump on it without research - I've done that in the beginning once or twice, but I learned quickly. So hopefully the folks that bought the thing above can learn as well.

Not that it means anything, but in my opinion - "Something just ain't right". It may be the old "bait and switch" .. Time will tell.
