it would be neat to see how many coins are removed from ebay as a result of this reporting forum maybe not the names but how many listings removed since the start up date of this topic

with bobby131313, besides the new forum for reporting ebay counterfeits and fakes seems the more logical place.
Rest in Peace

Besides -- just because a coin was removed doesn't mean it won't show up again later -- and be removed ...and show up again....

I just checked, looks like 26. You just have to look and see to keep track.

10K would be a lot closer on the forum, about 200K for the stuff I've rooted out without the forum.

I second that and my thank you as well! To devote such time and effort into something solely for the benefit of others by shutting the ebay door on scams, just because.....Bobby, you're one fine person!

Absolutely a great job done Bobby..and dont forget a hats off to all those fine CCF eyes spying ebay, thats a lot of combined hours of searching time.

To bad there is nobody going around to collect all these fakes they'll be more stuff like this showing up at yard sales and flea markets, Craigslist and Kijiji and elsewhere.
Reminds me of the cop who finally catches a real bad guy but the judge lets him out the next day.

I'm glad that CCF has followed in the tracks laid by Mike Marshal(a member here), who has done the same thing with his war against counterfeiters for the last 4-5 years. It's just too bad that it takes private individuals to successfully accomplish what the RCM,the RCMP, and the feds should be doing.
