He's a loyal customer, only bought from 2 sellers, I wonder why  I see there is no feedback yet from the guy who won it in january. I would like to thank everyone who watches and posts about questionable e-bayers, it has made me much more careful what I bid on. I have several whizzed coins I received before I found the site, I took my questionable ones to a local dealer, and I snuck in one I bought from him several months ago, and he called it cleaned as well  ,I guess I need to be cautious in his store also.

The January sale didn't sell - didn't reach reserve. The shill bid from Waleriar was under the reserve so as not to pay ebay fees if the shill bid won. They are getting smarter!

Note the less than desirable feedback rating. I would also like to thank everyone for these threads. They are very educational.

You know, I have seen many post here reporting on ebay sellers to watch out for. Which is why I don't bother with ebay. I don't like to be burned and I won't be a pleasent individual to deal with if it should happened to me, so I stay away from ebay. However, the only and I mean ONLY ebay seller I would do business with is Bobby and Susan. Not only because I am constantly on their site and sometimes asking stupid questions and/or info on something or other. I feel they can be trusted and they really care about their members and making it a 'safe heaven' for all members. So I Thank You Susan and Bobby for all you have taught me and for 'just being there' when needed. Now, my comment on this "naughty seller". Stay AWAY ! ....Have you noticed the same person bidded previously for the SAME item. I would bet my entire collection (well, not really) that this bidder is a friend or family member of the seller. And just to 'see' how far they can go in their game and waiting for a real bidder to scam. I think the friend/family will continue to bid (just to keep it active)until someone actually bids on this piece of __. I am not a liar nor a cheater and....It really ticks me off to see someone being taken advantage of. Enough said.....my blood is boiling.

Check his feedback score, 91 now thanks to this forum most of us know that anything below 96 is a bad feedback score. stay far away from this seller. Report this info to ebay,and maybe he will be history. BIRD OUT

Just from reading his feedback I wouldn't buy from him if he had the last coin on earth.

Snooba, on the guy with the bad feedback score, did you notice the attitude and vulgarity? Something else I've noticed if you've got a reputable seller that's been burned with bad feedback, you can look at the buyer's feedback and see that often they give everybody bad feedback. There are some people just looking to destroy seller's ratings. Just listen to Bobby's stories of nightmare buyers. Also, to comment on Bobby's listings, his pictures are excellent. Descriptions and return policy are really good. When you buy from him you know what you're getting before it arrives. If you're not satisfied it's probably your own fault. I'm sure there are some more good sellers on this forum, I've just not bought from them yet.

I never heard of Toolhaus.org thanks :) It's sometimes hard to search the negs from a person on ebay so this will be a useful tool.

Metalman...and any other CCF member I may have offended. Please don't take it personally. I should have worded my words differently so that there was no missunderstandings. I should have said ...I would not bid on an item from someone unless they were a member of CCF. I have not had the pleasure, as of yet and I am sure there will come a time that I do as my funds permit. So I'll be looking...:)

Mila cent I was not offended really !! Its just that sometimes its easy to over look the less obvious ebay sellers who are here on the forum . I would like to see all of them put their names in with the others on the forum ebay sellers page. It would make it much easier to check what they have going on in their listings !! Metalman
