    For edification, here's the relevant language quoted directly from Ebay:

    We may never see a PCGS one, and if we do it certainly won't sell for 40 bucks. By no means was I defending the grade of the service, at best that service is extremely incompetent to put it nicely, just didn't think it was fair to label the seller a scammer.

    I don't think we really have to worry about that one selling unless someone just wants to blow their free ebay bucks on it for whatever reason. Even novices can see all those marks on that one and such an unrealistic grade makes it easier for people to get suspicious when they see coins several points lower selling for more.

    No worries, I was unaware they don't even allow a picture of the slab. That rule seems a bit silly to me, but I guess it doesn't apply if you're our favorite NNC seller :happy:

    They allow a picture of the slab, in fact eBay elsewhere requires it (something else sellers frequently fail to do). You just have to mask or blur the numeric grade.

    I don't know did anyone bother asking the seller about the coin he was selling. If so then what did he say about it. I have a tendency to asked sellers on eBay all kinds of questions if I feel there is something not up to par about the coins that they are trying to sell, and the ones that are trying to rip people off I let them know it on occasion. And in doing so asking them questions about a falsified add it also lets eBay know that this add is deceptive advertising, and I know you gonna come back eBay really doesn't care unless you can prove your accusations against the seller. And if you prove it to their satisfaction they will pull the add, believe it or not if you insist they've follow their own policy about deceptive advertising That's just an old Marines that has dealt with eBay and deceptive advertising On a few occasions.:bookworm::blackalien:\V/

    Those double standards are why I stopped caring about their listing violation rules
