The miracle of " ebay ethics" (ha,ha) continues to amaze! See http://www.ebay.com/itm/50-1-TROY-O...em2329424a15

It's clearly stated that *PLEASE REMEMBER THIS ROUND IS SILVER PLATED IN .999 NOT SOLID SILVER* "THIS ITEM IS RAW & UNCERTIFIED" ,
so this passes muster for ebay's "ethics."

This may meet ebay "standards", but they're turning loose counterfeits that I think will undoubtedly be used later to cheat unknowing buyers. I feel ethical
culpability attaches to their knowingly setting the stage for that to happen and I think that's deplorable -- clear statements or no clear statements.

Just wonderful! The back even states 1 oz .999 silver. Where is Englehard on this? Did they actually make this?

Engelhard was bought, absorbed into BASF and ceased to exist as an entity itself years ago.

Here we go again...
The inability of these fornicators to use a completely different design(other than known ones)
to sell this junk, just shows their in it simply to deceive the unaware,inexperienced newbies
and so in a sense, its fraud. As far as ebay goes, well they're like banksters, its all about the money.
They're not a moral entity to safeguard against the lost of innocence. Liability! you might say. please,
The banks are now telling us they're going to serve themselves to our own money and saying; what are you going to do about it?

We're in a world now where right is wrong and wrong is right

As Freddy's motto displays;
BUYER BEWARE
That's what it boils down to
