Sometimes it's good to look a gift horse in the mounth, especially when cost many thousands of dollar.
Stolen photo = no bid so far as I'm concerned.

This auction stinks as a scam. Seller with 8 feedback, listed in the fantasy coin section, and no refunds.

Reply from seller minutes ago- "PCGS MS-63" "Yes I know that's why it's on the auction side I only could list a certain amout on ebay but the auction can go as high as it goes if it doesn't get the bids I won't sell it" It will never sell. |

Since it is on ebay, and considering the fame of this coin, it becomes absoultely essential that the integrity of the seller, and that of the coin itself, has to be proved to beyond any doubt whatsover.I would have preferred to find this sort of coin up for public auction at Heritage; they have the expertise, they have the reputation. |

PCGS MS-63 on a supposed "proof" coin?
Ridiculous attempt at scamming. I've reported it.

A Stella PR63 has a value of 100K +. Why is there no photos with PCGS cert number? I Guess the seller does not have a cell phone or camera. If this auction was legit, the starting price would be close to 100K. I would have a strong concern that the coin was counterfeit or stolen.

I am agreement with the others. I would never buy anything this costly (even if I could) from ebay, or for that matter, probably anywhere, without some sort of assurance of its authenticity, provenance, and confidence in the seller with appropriate guarantees including returns. Would you buy a $20,000 car from someone unknown, based only on a picture? |

I own a Stella, no such a thing as MS they are all considered PF. The only thing real about this situation is the cash that may be paid to the ebay member. As Jenny said, "run Forest, run." JFH |

Follow Up: Received a message sent through My ebay messages from seller to possibly buy item. Knucklehead went through My ebay messages. I did not respond. At 5:19est I received MC010 Account Security Communication Partner Warning from ebay. [as follows] "Our records show that you recently contacted or received messages from abro9955 through ebay's messaging system. This account was recently found to have been accessed by an unauthorized third party, who may have used the account in an attempt to defraud other members. We've taken action to restore this account to the original owner, but wanted to let you know to be suspicious of any communication you may have received from them. Nothing is wrong with your account at this time - this message is just being sent as a precaution. If you have received any messages from abro9955 that appears suspicious, please feel free to forward them to us at spoof@ebay.com for review." Nice to see ebay checked the offer message. Or am I? |
