Graded, Slabbed, Details, Artificial Toning

Well, isn't that what America is all about? If there's a market for it, go and do business! So basically ebay is just being American, which is not unexpected for an American company.

Anyway, for me there's nothing wrong with selling artificial toned coins, as long as it's clearly stated that it's artificially toned, like in this case. Same goes for slabbing: nothing wrong with slabbing an artificially toned coin, as long as it's clearly labeled as such. This may sound a bit liberal for most Americans, but if people want to willingly destroy their coin and have it slabbed as such, that should be their own business. Nothing wrong with offering it as such on the internet, as long as I'm not obliged to buy or like it. As long as we're open and honest about what's on offer: fine with me. If people then ask ridiculous prices: sure, that's ebay. We have a bunch of topics about that kind of coins on the forum here. If people actually want to pay such amounts of money for such a coin: well, who am I to claim a stake in their wallet and decision? Why should I take responsibility over someones else's stupidity? It's already hard work to do so for my own!
