How do you report fraud on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MakeTrack=true
The mint does not make silver nickels, this is a flat out lie! How does one report this to ebay to have the auction pulled?

Towards the bottom of the page, you can click the 'Report this item' link.

Where does it say the Nickels are silver?? or has the seller changed something already??

Thanks all. I reported it as well. I did notice that this seller has only one feedback. I hope he just made a honest mistake?

Treashunt

Yes, only one feedback, and it was for the sale of a roll of these "silver" nickels.

eBay's reply, I love the fact that they will NOT let me know about the result, due to privacy concerns!

seller you would like us to investigate for fraudulent activity. We are

Almost a waste of time. I've had some bad episodes with ebay sellers and basically so what. With the millions of sellers and millions and millions of items, ebay really doesn't care about one small lie or fraud. They will send you a nice, soothing reply though.

Speedy

Ah...thanks for pointing that out Frank.
I missed it the first time through looking at the auction.

Just had a response from him, I think he might well be genuine.

got somebody else asking me the same, I will contact the reserve monetary exchange, who sold me these nickels and verify with them they told me they were silver. Thanks for the alert

Never heard of the 'Reserve Monetry Exchange' have any of you guy's?

This is from the (http://www.coinvaultbox.com/jefferson06.asp) World Reserve Monetary Exchange

• You're guaranteed to get two sealed vault boxes with Jeffersons from the Philadelphia Mint and Denver Mint.
• Each sealed vault box contains 20 rolls of the new Jeffersons in Brilliant, uncirculated condition ... 500 coins in each vault box!
• These 'bricks' are heavier than a solid bar of .999 pure silver.
• Uncirculated coins are the only ones likely to increase most in value.
• VERY limited quantities available of these extremely hard to find Jeffersons. Get yours today before the vaults are emptied.

1 Sealed Vault Box of 500

1 Sealed Vault Box of 500

1,000 Coins

As you can see the marketing tactics used to sell these is a little questionable. The guy on ebay may have misunderstood what he bought? Now there should be no misunderstanding if he really looks into it.
