    Please report this ebay item as being fraudulent

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=170070339395

    Maybe if enough people complain, they will pull the listing.

    I tried reporting that item #170070339395 to customer support and it said it wasnt a valid item number. Either Ebay is covering up for these scammers or theres something very wrong with their system.....or both!

    OK I got it and reported it, now, will it do any good now that some of us have done it? Maybe if its done enough over and over again. I say we should keep after this ebay scammer until shes either kicked off or just gives up.

    I reported this coin again earlier today. Hopefully something will be done about it.

    It is a real shame that so many counterfeit coins have flooded ebay, and that sellers out there will attempt to intentionally deceive buyers. This actually hurts the sales of genuine raw coins as well, because if there is even a possibility that a certain coin could be counterfeited, the average collector will incorporate some implicit risk discount in his/her purchase price of a coin due to the potential that the coin could be fake. Even if the specific coin the collector is purchasing is actually genuine, the final price will be less than it would be if no uncertainty about counterfeits existed. It's all a matter of incorporating uncertainty into the marketplace.
