I almost bid on some of this ebayers morgans and Peace dollars though in watching I noticed alot of bidders are ones with feedbacks from 0 to 30 and it just doesn't feel right. Look at the item location is at an email address. And one of the bidders had a 200 dollar bid retraction.

I wouldn't worry to much about the location tag,a lot of people put weird or different things in that section.This seller is actually using a couple different wordings in that section in different auctions. As far as the bid retraction,that could just have been a mistake.Sometimes people punch in one to many numbers or the wrong number.It happens.

What would worry me is the poor quality pictures(and even that wouldn't worry me if they had 200+ positive feedbacks and a return policy) and the use of the word "estate" in every auction.Whenever I see the word estate in an auction,I usually pass it by.Estate=red flag to me.
Rest in Peace

I get more frosted by those sellers who fake their locations, e.g., showing Phoenix, AZ instead of Beijing, China.

Still, I tend to ignore auctions where the seller's locations are not given. When I bid on a coin, I want to know as much as possible about a seller before I commit to sending him/her oodles of $$$$$. Some PowerSellers will list "Titanium PowerSeller, US" which tells me they don't want to be found.

I totally agree Morgan Fred, there is nothing more iritating than a seller trying to hide something. I want my buyers to fully aware of the item I am selling along with my policies and history and knowledge that I am able to provide. As sellers it is the least we can do to make sure the buyer fully understands the transaction. Honesty I believe is still the best policy.
I am careful on buying from Estate auctions as many times the sellers claim to know nothing about what they are selling and many times use that as an excuse for not accepting returns or making adjustments.
