He should get slammed for offering "10 available", yet showing 1 slab.
I noticed he moved his location from Alberta to Yellowknife, NT. Real believable for a recent transplant.
He's earned some nonstop torment in my book.

wording sounds Chinese but store says Canada what else

Readers Digest had a recent article about a small town in Romania that is a world center for Interweb scams.

It mentioned that one group moved to "legitimate" countries to receive money, then these "arrows" forward most of it to the scammers.

Surely peddlers of fake coins have set up similar networks.

Seriously now I do not see how he could be in good standing with ebay or pay-pal yet from his listing " , Only accept Pay-pal ,fast and safe ,I like it!
" when last I looked he had sold 5 for $ 500. so how DO they? DOES he make money? Who loses buyers? ,pay-pal ?
thanks to scubu and others, site only up less than 4. 5. hours . Maybe buyers are contacted to send money wire ?
Don't know ! but someone, once said "follow the money"
tried to contact seller through ebay ,asked him If there was a problem, and I had to return coin how would he know I didn't return a counterfeit. ( boy is that a trick question ) will I get a reply?
Rest in Peace

can EBay/Pay-Pal pay fast enough to make that work?

They only need to work fast enough for him to get the buyer's phone number or email. Anyone trying to get an 89cc dollar for $40 will cheerfully mail a money order or send a wire.

just an example of a listing with no doubt

That listing is fine, completely up front. It's nothing like the others.


link fixed.

Well scubu
please don't fall asleep how about a name that site contest I vote for "SERIOUS REGARD SELLER"

since we are regarding him seriously and those are words he uses in his auctions actions.
Or just leave it at. "he's back" cause it sounds like "poltergeist" or at least something creepy.

Sadly dull knifes --painful cuts

I mean we are having fun (not buying )
the problem as I see it, IMHO is the novice buyer getting sucker puncked (sic ) and turned off to the hobby
even though they think their getting a $ 3,000 to $18,000 dollar coin (more or less) for under $ 100 mostly $ 39.99. ie. Sumting for nuting they should (and will ) know better next time. Still a little sad to watch........

Not my nature to be a sad kinda guy, so I'm just going to roll back and as scubu "" BOOKS em "" again !

edit . forgot
