I don't know & don't need to know what INB is right now. What did you list & how exactly did you list it on Ebay?

Here are the eBay rules you probably ran afoul of. Most likely, the fact that you are not allowed to say "INB"

Quote:
A raw or uncertified coin is defined as any coin not graded by one of the authorized grading companies. Sellers are permitted to list these items on eBay under the following conditions:

* A numeric grade is not included in the title of the listing, such as MS-65, VF-25, etc. A numeric grade may only be included in the description of the listing.
* The grading company or price guide is not referenced in the title or description.
* A dollar value (even if personal opinion) is not included in the title or description.
* The listing must include an image of the item, showing the coin in its graded holder, front and back.

Why don't you crack 'em out and sell 'em raw?

They are the biggest bunch of scammers on ebay, I am not sure why they are still in business. First they over grade like crazy. Also they bid up thier own auctions, they list it privately so noone can catch on that it is just the one guy bidding on all these auctions. Then they will win the auction at a ridiculous amount and give you a "second chance offer" because the first guy bailed (oviously cause they were the first guy) I have only bought one thing from them when I was just starting collecting. HIGHLY overgraded, coin cases arent even sealed and I stay far far away!!!

I guess Iam with Mr Coin Lover because I have never heard of INB either. Just another one to add to the long list of scammers.

It is possible I didn't miss them, just rapidly dismissed them. Really, I don't ever recall seeing any of there slabs.
