I received the following email from ebay re a $600 coin lot I bid on, won & paid with Paypal (I replaced the Item info with XXXXX):Thank you for your bid on the following listing:

My question:I contacted
ebay & they said they were unable to tell me anything due to "privacy issues." Paypal said that if I needed to file a dispute & something was wrong with the Item, I was protected & would be reimbursed.
I contacted the seller & he said there was nothing wrong, he doesn't know why this happened & it's happened before to him. Meanwhile, several other Items he's selling are still listed, so
ebay has not removed his other sales.
Also, the coins I won arrived today. They look authentic & I plan to have them certified.
Anyone ever have this problem?
