Just wondering if anyone bought coins from this dealer and what the experiences were.
They seem to have few Morgan/Peace dollars that I'm thinking about purchasing.

Quite a few coins, mostly raw. They have all been as advertised, or better than advertised. Pretty fast shipping to me in Texas. No issues.

I bought coins from them back in 2011 and 2012. I don't recall anything bad or odd about the purchases. Coins were as promised.

They are legit, but just be careful with their photos. They are a bit dark, and don't always show everything.

I too have made a few purchases from ECC of ebay, I'm in Texas as is Adam (paralyse) is and my coins always arrived quickly too. Never had to send anything back, I agree their photos are quite dark, and don't always show the coin in it's true light. I save the photos and lighten them up myself in Photoshop or Lightroom, which works for me. I've bought only 2 cent varieties from them, seems their copper coins are really dark in photos, a couple I purchased were PCGS certified. Trustworthy in my opinion.

I've never had a problem with them, other than the oft mentioned care in knowing their photos are not always true for color.

 I have bought several nice coins from them and have had no problems. And, like a few others, I live in Texas and the shipping is fast.

Thanks for all the feed backs. I'll take a look at their picture more closely and get few Morgan/Peace dollars for my set.

To add on - my experiences over the internet and in person with ECC have been very good.
I agree that some photos can be less than perfect, but I think that is a result of several photographers and varying skill/knowledge.
But they have the best prices on the internet for comparable quality to other webstores, and if you're ever in Stow, OH be sure to stop into the store. They are very courteous and helpful.
But be aware that their buy prices for coins is a fair percentage lower than I've experienced at other stores, but I think they pass that along to their good retail prices. I don't have a problem with this method, because I know what I'm in for.
They willingly purchased a bunch of very low grade stuff from me about a year ago and although it wasn't the best pricing, they provided the liquidity I needed/wanted. I actually spent all of the money plus more right in the store that day anyways, so...we were both happy.

On the penny I bought from them, the reverse was rotated 90 degrees. One of the cooler coins I own and looked exactly like the photos; wasn't a "glamor shot"
