TLS5933 Pillar of the Community United States 1703 Posts	Posted 01/27/2007 5:21 pm I cannot even imagine bidding almost $600 from that picture and from a seller with zero feedback. Greed does a strange thing to some people. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/27/2007 5:27 pm Check out the record of Bidder 1, who got it all started. He's setting off fire alarms in my mind. Report this Post to the Staff

Spider5689 Pillar of the Community United States 2269 Posts	Posted 01/27/2007 9:29 pm This doesn't make sense, The pictures are of the poorest quality I have seen in a long time and the seller only mentions the pesos and not the others in the auction. Report this Post to the Staff

Mila_cent Pillar of the Community United States 1767 Posts	Posted 01/27/2007 9:46 pm I wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole. That picture is of no use. I wouldn't be surprised that the winning 'bidder' is a friend or relative who is in cahoots with the seller. They are probably 'testing the waters' of ebay and planning something bigger for later.

Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 01/27/2007 11:29 pm Mila, that is a very good assumption. I didn't even think about that. I think everyone should be wary of this fellow. They could be planning something much bigger. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 01/28/2007 12:03 am I saw that auction because he had it in the $20 gold category but at that time it had a starting bid of 500.00 and no one had bid on it yet, I really didn't think anyone would ever bid on something like that but I guess I am wrong. I bet the only reason it went to high is because he put it in the $20.00 gold category and someone thinks they are going to get a 20 dollar gold piece in high grade along with the other coins Report this Post to the Staff
