TwoCentsWorth Valued Member Canada 250 Posts	Posted 01/21/2011 10:47 pm Haven't collected coins very long but I'm willing to bet this guy is full of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/CANADA-ONE-CENT...em20b685f787 Says the coin..."it has been punched with a "G" stamped on the rear of the coin by the Royal Canadian Mint" Maybe I'm wrong but is there any reason the mint would do this? Cheers! Report this Post to the Staff

TwoCentsWorth Valued Member Canada 250 Posts	Posted 01/21/2011 11:04 pm Ack, forgot about that. Obviously done in someones house, just wondered if they could possibly be any reason the mint today would damage a coin that way Report this Post to the Staff

Interesting that he demands that sellers ship within 48 hours Yet his damaged coin listing says he usually ships within 3 business days. Almost a no-brainer to avoid any contact with him.

JMerrick Valued Member Guatemala 357 Posts	Posted 01/22/2011 10:50 am And, for the record... The only place his contract would hold any weight is in that large void between his ears. A seller failing to read his 'me' page does not constitute "implied consent" on the part of the seller. And, that whole part about "If I don't like what you send me, I'm going to keep it and say I didn't get it..." Well. I don't know where he lives, but where I live, that's 'theft', probably 'theft by deception', and if he uses the mail service, possibly 'postal fraud'. Report this Post to the Staff
