I reported a listing that had "slabbed" in the title and along with the report asked for a clarification....


Quote:
Is there an official ebay stance on "slabbed" in the title? In my opinion novice to average collectors consider "slabbed" synonymous with "certified" and could be deceived.


Here is the reply I received... bolding mine....


Quote:
I investigated these listings and confirmed that they violated our Selling Currency policy. As a result, I removed the listings. At this point in time there are no policies in place which restricted the use of the term "Slabbed." But, when the seller states the coin is Graded and slabbed we will end it, due to the use of the term "Graded."


Good to know.

So the seller can say "NGC CERTIFIED VF 30" but not "graded VF30"?
ebay is a funny place.

Should've been more clear. I'm referring to the basement slabber auctions. Not the allowed TPGs.

I came across a listing Wednesday for an NGC MS62 Morgan dollar. Only problem is the seller added DMPL to the title. I reported him as the slab did not show any PL or DPL grading. I heard nothing back from ebay, but noticed the seller re-listed it and placed DMPL in "" ... NGC MS62 "DMPL". In his comments he states it's DMPL and severely undergraded.
