middross, I feel sorry for the trouble you have been going through with this ebay seller... but, did you read her negative feedback before you purchased?

Hope things work out for you.

I didn't read her negative until after I had this bad experience. Seems she has pulled the old switcheroo before. ebay has been very heplfu in recovering my return shipping cost. It is now up to PayPal to get the claim taken care of.

For all those who have trouble identifying the far or near just draw a straight line from the bottom of the 2 across to the rim.. You can clearly see the difference, this very very helpful when the tips of the 6 appear worn.. So when in doubt draw the line..... I know someone on the forum has that program to show it..Maybe they could do it for all to see

Dear middross,LOOK AT THE darn PICTURES. FAT BLUNT 6. FAR 6. THE PICTURES YOU PROVIDED WERE THE BEST EVIDENCE. I JUST HAD ebay REVIEW IT. THERE IS NO DISPUTE THAT YOU RECEIVED THE ITEM AS DESCRIBED. I STAND BEHIND WHAT I SELL. RETURN THE ITEM.- coingeekcanada


Dear coingeekcanada,Look at the distance between the end of the six and the leaf. That is what makes it a "near or far". The six closer to the leaf is near and the one farther from the leaf is far. It has nothing to do with the fatness of the six. I will return the coins as soon as you take action with PayPal, and they tell me to ship them back.- middross

Dear middross,LOOK STUPID THE DISTANCE MEANS NOTHING THESE ARE ERRORS NONE ARE THE SAME. WHAT IN YOUR DIAGRAM SAYS THERE IS THIS MUCH SPACE? ITS NOT POSSIBLE BECAUSE THEY ARE ERRORS. THE FACTS ARE THE STYLE OF THE SIX. FAT AND BLUNT. END OF STORY. FINAL WARNING. GET TO THE POST OFFICE AND SHIP OUT THE ITEM SO I CAN BE DONE WITH YOU. WHEN YOU HAVE COMPLETED THIS YOU WILL CAN UPLOAD THE DATA TO PAYPAL AND THEY WILL CONTACT ME. YOU AND I ARE DONE COMUNICATION AS YOU ARE A FRAUD AND A CON MAN. MY CASE HAS BEEN PROVED TIME AND TIME AGAIN. FYI - STOP MISS QUOTING OR MAKING LIES ABOUT WHAT ebay AND/OR PAYPAL ARE SAYING AS THEY ARE NOT TAKING IT LIGHTLY.- coingeekcanada

I try to tell the members to read the feedback carefully before you bid on coins.
Hope things work out for you.

PayPal has told me not to ship anything until I hear from them. So I am just going to sit tight for the time being.

I have also filed a report about this seller's harrasing messages, and was told that they will be in contact with said seller.

I'm sure that it will all work out in the end.

BTW. Should the 1926 varieties be renamed Fat 6 and thin 6? Oh wait, these are not varieties......they are errors, and no two are alike.

For a self professed "coin geek" they sure don't know very much about coins. As an example they seem to consistently refer to varieties (both common and uncommon) as errors.

Sorry for you experience with this seller but thanks for enlightening all of us about their customer service (or lack thereof!).
I've just blocked him from selling to me on ebay. If you want to do this too in the advanced search options, you can go to the Seller menu option, and check the box that reads "Only show items from:". Then under "Specific sellers (enter seller's user IDs)" choose "Exclude" from the dropdown menu, then add the seller's user ID to the box, and click search.

That doesn't really apply to me as I'm sure the seller has already blocked me. I hope that no ody here has to go through what I have with this seller.
