You will be missing something if you didn't snap up the deal

Too good to be true. Probably fake, a setup for a robbery, or stolen.

You can arrange for a meet up at a jewelry store (arrange with the store owner first) to have the coin test (chemical, weight, size) and then buy it then and there. Or split the profit w/ the jewelry owner (arrange beforehand).... that way you will significantly reduce your risk. Good luck.

It's probably just one of joe316's rich friends selling for half price again.

"It's probably just one of joe316's rich friends selling for half price again."

Now that was funny. He hasn't been around to make his latest prediction that Silver would never reach $41 again or is it $50 now since it cleared the first one.

That certainly is a bargain and a large one at that. You might want to make that deal at a police station.

People wanted to unload something that cheap always raise concerns in my head.

Agreed. It is not at all difficult to find out what gold and silver coins are worth. Operating under the assumption that the seller does not know the true price of genuine Krugerrands seems foolish indeed. The bait in a trap usually looks really good.

No doubt it is bogus. I can get more then double that in cash from 20 different places around here. I wouldn't even respond to that.

I remember when I was looking for a used car on ebay...there was always some ad that was about 1/3rd of the blue book price and pics of a great new looking car. They were usually gone after a few hours and obvious scams.

Lots of scammers out there, be careful.

It could be a disgruntled dude just getting out of a nasty divorce or simply a scam. I'd agree with the latter. If you really want it then listen to the previous posts and get that tested out. $750 is a ridiculous price for that item and I would tread with extreme caution. Good luck.

I thought ebay forced you to use paypal. Or is this not on ebay?

Sure he does. And if this deal is a scam, both he and your money will be LONG gone by the time that 14th day comes along. Oddly enough, most scammers are also liars.
Rest in Peace
