ancientcoinguy Pillar of the Community United States 842 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 2:16 pm I ran across this seemingly extraordinary group of coins for sale on ebay. Take a look and tell me if you see anything iffy about this group. Do there appear to be any fakes? Is this too good to be true? Thanks for your time! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...TRK:MEWAX:IT Report this Post to the Staff

pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 2:29 pm IMHO some or all of these look overcleaned or are repros. Hard to tell from the small, cropped photo. And of course I never trust anyone who can't spell, lol. J/k, but if he can't spell PayPal, can he tell the difference between real and Memorex? Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 2:37 pm I think that most of these are cleaned/ damaged. and with 6 days left, I think that the price will go up too high to be worth buying Edited by Adam_E 03/13/2011 2:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 2:48 pm Isn't there enough detail to identify most of those--if legit. "Final sale/no return" is a bit telling too. Report this Post to the Staff
Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 3:56 pm If I were interested,I would go for it...Ebay policy is that the seller is responsible for authenticity regardless of the return policy. Let me say I speak from experience and have always gotten a refund when returning counterfeits. And I continue to take chances like this in the hopes that ebay will find it easier to actively seek/stop counterfeit sales than having to settle cases. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 4:37 pm Interesting looking lot, however most if not all appear to be reproductions IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 10:12 pm Just happens to have 27 ancients, and they're all in excellent condition? So he's selling as a lot, when they'd bring much more individually? And he's got daggers that he's selling as copies because he has no coa? Sounds like the bullship has docked.

Doucet Pillar of the Community United States 1315 Posts	Posted 03/13/2011 10:43 pm I don't have enough experience to say if the are repros or if they're any good, but I checked his feed back(it's good) and looked at past items he sold. I see also he as purchased from at least one seller from V-coins. He sold a similar lot of 70 coins not long ago that went for 612.00, with 21 bidders. The no return policy is kind of a flag.IMO Report this Post to the Staff
