So this is a listing with a misleading title. Report! I've done so. The coin sure enough doesn't look MS 65 to me! Report this Post to the Staff

Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 12/05/2007 3:42 pm Guys, are saying that ebay will not let someone reference a coin grade unless it is in one of the big three slabs? As much as I would like to see it, it sure seems like a lawsuit in the making, to me. IMHO, anyway. Can someone explain a little further, please? Jim Report this Post to the Staff
SeatedNut Pillar of the Community United States 2797 Posts	Posted 12/06/2007 08:22 am Jim, If it is not slabbed by one of the ebay recognized TPGs (PCGS, NGC, ANACS, and ICG), you can not assign a numerical grade in the title/subtitle or list it as certified. I believe you are free to do so in the text of your comments. You can use MS, BU, AU, XF, etc. I think this is best for the hobby. Let's face it, 99% of the non-recognized TPG grades are fantasies. We've had truth in advertising statutes on the books for many years to protect consumers. This is a bit of a twist on that, but if the basement TPGs want to be legit, they need to clean up their act before entering a courtroom, IMHO.

I'm not a lawyer but as a private business I (would think) ebay has the right to recognize, or not, whoever they see fit. And either way I doubt any "grader" would want to draw even more attention... with a lawsuit that basically says, "Why does ebay consider us a POS company?"
