I was doing some research on a Lithuanian 200 Litu Coin. The seller sold this three months ago. If you check the feedback you would notice the coin transaction went thru smoothly and buyer has given him positive feedback. http://www.ebay.com/itm/280990899771 But today i notice the same coin being resold by the seller (heck he hasn't even changed the listing title). http://www.ebay.com/itm/271146049315 Also PCGS lists the population as 1 so unlikely he had duplicate coins. I don't want to accuse the seller but there could something going on. Ebay typically does very little about listing like this from my experience. I typically stay away from these auctions' but i did put low bid on this auction.
I would ask him. Maybe there is a very reasonable explanation. If I bought a coin like that and ran into hard times, the first person I would ask to buy it from me would be the guy I bought it from.
Yea unless there is a error in a listing i find it best to avoid any confrontation in ebay and let ebay support take care of it. Since he can deny it or worse he can turn it around and escalate the situation.
The buyer's feedback for the seller was on 18 Oct. and positive. Like Medoraman said, it is very possible that the buyer either sold it back or consigned it to the seller.
You could send the slightly evil one a PM. He is a member here and made a post a few weeks ago. gmarguli CT profile
That doesn't really mean anything. It is not uncommon for their pop numbers to be inaccurate. And since Greg, the seller, specializes in these kind of coins, if anyone were to sell more than 1 of them, it would more likely than not be him.
I think Doug is saying is maybe the man had two, and just used the same photo. Its possible, but I think its just more likely that the buyer of this coin wished to sell. Like I said, if I bought something but needed to sell it a few months later the best way to sell it would be from the dealer I bought it from, maybe he specializes in these and has a good following for them.
Unless you can see something I can't, there is no photo to see for the first one. What I know about Greg that maybe you don't is that he searches out these world coins, often buys them raw and then submits them. He sells lots of high grade world coins, has for years. So I find it real easy to believe he had 2 of them. Either way, it's easy enough to ask him.
