gbvbsite thanks for saying that we sometimes get carried away.
TheCoinHunter, I received this message via
ebay from themoneychest-2:
"For your information - It should be noted that you are the subject of one of the largest coin discussion web sites, re your refusal to acknowledge that your listing along with one other is/was incorrect - even after renown experts have pointed out to you the difference in the varieties.."
and this from flint.cda:
"I have posted warnings about your refusal to change your listings on Canadian and US-based foreign coin sites, despite emails from me and others that you are severely misleading buyers. I have also sent
ebay emails about your dishonesty .. you'll hear from them. This isn't about out differences of opinion .. this is about purposely misleading buyers ... you should be ashamed. To protect newbies and other people not up to speed, I sent about 10-20 of these to the vendors and
ebay every year and you are the first that has refused to change .. they know who I am and my background. Evidently, you don't"
Now if you, as a business owner/coin dealer were to receive messages like these would you not be worried about your online reputation and future business? Furthermore, I did continue to do research even after saying I would not be changing the listing. Ultimately I discovered I was missing a lot of information and what many of you were trying to tell me is in fact corrct. As for becoming a known "junk dealer" I have a good track record on
ebay and I consider this an isolated case. It was a mistake, I've admitted to it, and I've corrected the mistake, and here we are. All's well that ends well. Thanks for your concern. Furthermore, I plan to regularly visit this site and may call on the users here for advice if something should come up again. I thank you all for your advice and would like to rely on it in the future should something like this come up.
Okiecoiner, I did take the time to look over the coin several times. Problem is I was using just the one and same book each time, and as I've come to realize that book is not a good reference. I've said this many times over so pardon the fact I sent a copy+pasted form response out, but it gets tiring repeating myself.
Pennyman007, calling it an excuse is in my opinion pathetic, but everyone is entitled to one. Cheers.
P.S. I understand how to normally post on a forum and I will use a more casual format. I just want to make sure I address everyone to clear the air of any remaining concerns. Apologies.
