Too many of these buyers out there...

Granted this guy is blatantly selling a fraud but how in the world could someone bid that much for a rarer coin and not even look at the pictures?

Now he's ended the listing and 'fixed' the photos in the relisting--please continue to report if you can!

Nice try--eBay has a server log, and we have before/after pics here.
I see he's fudged with his pics further to hide the evidence, good luck.

I have also reported the new listing, the more reports, the more chance of ebay doing something. I also tried to bid a penny to see what happened but I could not, as I am outside the US.

Is his other listing legit? I don't know anything about these. It might be worth someone bidding a penny to save some poor sap (Obviously not our Sap!) from doing the BIN.

It's already a different coin but I'm not sure if it is photoshoped also.

I just sent him a very long "question."
Think he'll have the guts to respond?

He responded to me:


Quote:
Go ahead, I have nothing to hide. If you think this coin that I am attemping to sell is fraudulent, please contact ebay. I'm contacting them too, letting them know that I am getting threats from strangers. If you dont believe that this coin is real or the photos have been doctored up PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THEM!


My response:


Quote:
I have already contacted ebay about your fraudulent coin selling, please do contact them if you feel you are being threatened by anyone. My only interest is in the well-being of your potential victims. The evidence is already on file with ebay, so I'll let them handle their business, but I've kept pictures of my own in case they need to contact me to testify or whatever. Thanks for your response.
