Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 9:33 pm I told him the 1952 wasn't a silver War Nickel and he changed it, but I don't have the heart to tell him everything else that he has wrong with his sales.

fur_coin_talk Valued Member United States 230 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 11:10 pm whats worse. people sell silver lots on ebay all the time, and they try to sneak in a pre 64 (or 68 Canadian) nickel as silver. With the Canadian they also sell lots of quarters and dimes without specifying the years, as we all know the 68's could be 50% silver or nickel. but they use the current spot price of 80% silver coins without breaking them out by year. On one Canadian silver lot auction that just closed, they sold some silver half's, but the lot also included a 68 half. The seller writes in the description "selling some silver coins" he doesn't say that the lot isn't all made out of silver. The 68 half is made out of nickel. The lot sold for a price that assumed the 68 half was made out of silver and not nickel. I wanted to bid, but it wasn't worth the final price because of the missing silver content. I don't think it warrants a report to ebay. I almost wrote an email to the seller but I figured I would mind my own business. I guess you could also write the buyer- but no one likes a busybody. It is possible he didn't know that the 68 was made out of nickel, and it is possible that the buyer knew this as well. But what if the buyer thought he was getting an all silver lot? what is our responsibly as bystanders? Edited by fur_coin_talk 07/03/2011 11:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 11:58 pm I feel our responsibility is nothing past reporting misleading or downright deceptive ads. If someone is buying an ebay lot, it is THEIR responsibility to know what they are buying before they bid. As long as the seller does not imply or strictly say something is silver, when in fact it is not, then I do not feel a seller is at fault. Educating oneself is rule #1 when buying or investing. If you made a bad choice, it is no one's fault but yours. Report this Post to the Staff
