I always like the disclaimer "I know nothing about coins". If you had potentially thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, I'd learn really fast. How hard is it to buy a RedBook or read the PCGS website ? Also, those prices written in the back had to come from somewhere... so much for faking no knowledge.


I'm glad that was mentioned. I forgot how that statement is always poping up. Same with "I know nothing about xxxxxx, it was all my husband's" I just want to get rid of this stuff.
YEAH, RIGHT.

It's not a scam, she put "Happy Holidays and God Bless" at the end. That sounds very sincere to me. ;-)

SCAM! I bet she is actually a he. I've also seen other auctions this past month that were similar to "hers". Same junk grading company, sticker on the back with a crazy price, and same granite counter. I'm guessing there other account was shut down so they're using this one.

The auctions did mot break the rules.

They most certainly did. Every single one had the word "graded" in the title. All that crap was raw. I reported them all and every single one was canned withing 24 hours. Even the ones that had ended. All the buyers would have gotten an email that the coins were misrepresented.

I reported the one that was relisted with the $75K sticker on it and they yanked that too.
