Sap Moderator Australia 16844 Posts	Posted 02/13/2022 11:50 pm There is a reason why using stock photos of coins are against ebay policy. Quote: from eBay policy on selling collectible currency Listings for ungraded coins and currency or raw currency: - Must include photos of the front and back of the actual item for sale (stock photos are not allowed) If you see someone selling raw coins on ebay and using stock photos, just report the listing to ebay and move on. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 02:08 am Sap, I didn't know that. I see APMEX using stock photos most of the time on ebay. Their disclaimer "photos in this listing may or may not be stock photos" seems like it would be against ebay policy. But they do use the word "may" Suffering from bust half fever.

windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 03:52 am The seller had a disclaimer under the listing " stock photo used for this listing " You guys want to hear the real messed up part? I had bid on one prior and lost and I got a " second chance" offer. I had never even heard of that. So I took the offer, based on a stock photo. Seller had a 99% rating so I figured you " why not?" Well, I now know why not. I am shipping it this morning. Report this Post to the Staff

And my question is:, Was the coin that was in the listing the same coin that you received ? If NO , then this is why you shouldn't buy or bid on coins with stock photos .

NumismaticsFTW Pillar of the Community United States 2282 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 11:20 pm Oof, this is a teaching moment folks. Never buy a coin with a stock photo. That coin is not BU, you got ripped off. New to numismatics....research and learn as much as you can prior to throwing money around willy-nilly, at stock photos at that You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think. -Neil deGrasse Tyson Report this Post to the Staff
