ShadowCreator - I have NOT dealt with this
ebay seller, BUT, if I was contemplating bidding or buying from him I would feel reasonably confident in buying from him...at least as confident as I would feel buying ANYTHING off of ANYBODY on
ebay.
This guy has a 99.9% positive rating however, as I've said before, negative ratings are like icebergs. What you see is probably only about 10% of what you should be seeing. So the thing to do is to try to locate those few negatives and see if the specifics of them scare you.
This seller has 2 negatives over the last six months and 2 negatives over the last 12 months...which simply means the two negatives occurred in the last 6 months and that there were no negatives in the prior 6 months.
So what were they? Here's the first one. The buyer had this to say:
"rejected by NGC for grading after seller assured it would"To which the seller replied:
"offered full money back,,,,,,,,they said they would send it to NCS, not NGC" And here's the item: (I would have questioned why the front looked so "scratchy" or simply not bid. The photo tells the story, doesn't it?)

Here's the second negative. The buyer said:
"Was not AG Was scrap Silver"To which the seller responded:
"We offered to pay shipping back on top of a full refund = What more could we do" And here is the item (My opinion is that the description is CORRECT. I can still see the date so, in my book, it's an AG, not scrap)

The seller also some NEUTRALS, but 4 of them are from the same buyer, and in my opinion, that buyer clearly misread the listing and did not understand that it was a Dutch auction.
99.9% positive is the lowest rating that I'll EVER consider buying from. And as 99.9% sellers go, this guy seems pretty decent.
