lol ... but are they copies?
**Scratch, scratch. This is a basement slabber! Look at the rest of his auctions!
And it has a Croatian Dinar. With my achem... experience of buying sizable lots of banknotes, any lot with dinars, Yugoslavian dinara, those cheap cheap banknotes don't really have good stuff.
***Yup, and one check on toolhaus shows that these are Chinese fakes. oh lordy someone's going to get tricked...

This listing ( 160345324422) has been removed, or this item is not available. Please check that you've entered the correct item number Listings that have ended 90 or more days ago will not be available for viewing. Its been removed again , 22 bidders and up to $111k it was.This is very strange. |

When you accumulate 100,000 feedbacks it indicates that you have put a LOT of money into ebay's pockets. Evidently, at that point, you can list any old $#&@ you'd like with virtual impunity. This guy's (cough, cough) positive feedback rating is 98.8%. In case you don't know it, negative feedback on ebay is a lot like an iceberg. Only 10% shows above the surface. For every one person that leaves a negative feedback, there are almost certainly 10 more who should have. I have trouble making myself buy a used paperback book from a seller who has a 99.9% rating, much less buying coins from someone sitting at 98.8% ! |

Mornin Weerdsteev , bit of confusion here , theres 2 links
The bidding on the 2nd item had 22 bids or so and bidding was up to 111k dollars , this auction keeps getting pulled no matter how he describes or changes it to suit them.

Understood...but my point is that they keep allowing him to sell and relist. With all the shenanigans he's trying to pull, he should have been BANNED by now!

They haven't banned him BECAUSE of the enormous revenue stream he generates. Think about it: A good rule of thumb for selling on ebay is this: Be prepared to pay AT LEAST 10% in fees. AT LEAST! Between listing fees, final value fees and PayPal fees (and PayPal = ebay) you are going to pay AT LEAST 10% in fees for every dollar you make. This character has over 100,000 feedbacks. It doesn't mater whether they're positive or negative, that's over 100,000 transactions that contributed to ebay's well-being. If all those transactions averaged out to a MEASLY $10.00 each, he has put $100,000 into ebay's pockets. Ban him...? Permanently...? ebay...? Nah!! |

Oh, great. Well, as the late, great Emily Litella frequently observed, "Never mind!" (What is the Obama birth certificate seller's ebay ID...?) |

This Numismaticbureau guy has been around for years selling the same new crap as "old coins recently discovered". He has an endless supply of old cigar boxes because he "dumps the coins into a bag" before he ships. He also has an endless supply of Fort Knox banks that he found in a desk in a ghost town while metal detecting. This latest story though....unbelievable. I first saw his hidden room through the secret doorway in the closet scam a couple of months ago! Makes me wonder just how many people actually "bite"....cause this guy knows how to bait a hook. But if people took the time to run back through his feedback and see the negatives...the majority of it is on his "recently discovered" lots.

Yeah, the Numismaticbureau guy has been given lots of negatives for selling pocket change as rarities.
