Could it be possible that the seller is just saying the coin is 'tough' and accidentally missed a space between tough and coins? Or maybe he bought it from you and just threw it in to see if it would sell quicker that way?

 

Wow. That is rather blatant. I don’t do much on EBay but I am a believer in strongly worded letters.... Or emails as the case may be. Make sure the offender is fully aware that he is crossing the line with a man that means business.

 

It would have been an enormous coincidence for him to accidentally forget the space and capitalize the word coins and even put the S at the end...

 

You should definitely contact eBay Vero then.

 

We should all just report the item so that eBay is like "Holy cow this item isn't good if there are four reports on it..." Except I've never reported an item nor been reported so I don't quite know what to do to report it. I know that there is the button that says "Report Item" above the description, but I don't know what to do next and I don't want to get into legal business and such without knowing what to do...

I just reported it.

 

I also just sent a mail thing by contacting him saying it was illegal and that he should take your trademark name off of the title. I also sent him the link to this very conversation so that he knows I wasn't sending some random mail to him. I hope it was an accident or just someone who is a starter on eBay who didn't know that it was illegal.

 

Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but I hope you jump into this guy feet first. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

 

Ok the seller replied. He knows what he is doing and he is cocky. I really seriously hope this guy gets caught. This is a snapshot of his mail back:

 

Hmm...no response to me. I'll send him another message.

 

Reported to eBay.

@toned_morgan I'd forward that reply to eBay... That's just uncalled for.

Not that it'll ever matter (I don't sell on eBay anymore), but I'll block him as well... if I can find it...

 

eBay doesn't do anything about messages. You can swear and cuss and say and do practically anything you want...but when you say that you want to buy something outside of eBay, they close your account.

eBay won't do anything about it. You would have to call them and wait hours on the phone for someone even if you tried to do something about it. I have seen much worse.

 

How do I forward a response?
