Yes. Spread the word and warn other people about these rip off.

 

Anybody who is stupid enough to buy these deserves them. That is what the seller is hoping for. But, this is false representation and needs to be reported.

 

This person has sold 67 products with a 4.7 rating and only one negative rating. I do not know what the other items sold looked like.

"Seller does not accept returns" --No kidding

 

And, he has 0 feedback. If there was feedback you could look at the recent items as listed. How do you sell that many and have no feedback?

 

Good question!

 

Was kinda thinking this too. Would be a valuable lesson, and the buyer would probably never make such a dumb mistake again.

 

You can return an item, even if the seller does not accept returns, if the item is counterfeit or does not match the description. Ebay is doing great damage to our hobby by allowing this to go on unabated. The "report item" does nothing except waste your time. I was planning on starting a thread on this topic when I found this thread.

If this is how we treat the new numismatists that don't know how to identify fakes, copies, counterfeits, and altered coins, we will be as much to blame as they are when coin collecting dies. NO ONE deserves to get ripped off. Period.
Look for a new thread on ebay and their disregard for the law.

 

I reported it to eBay.

 

Let's see if they do anything. I bet they don't.

 

The coins in the subject here are so basic that if someone hasn't learned that much they probably are not ready at all. We are talking the difference between well circulated and Mint State. We are talking about basic mint marks selling an S Mint coin that is clearly marked with a D. True, we need to help, but, the novice collector needs to seek help.

 

I asked myself the same question but from what it looks like, this is a brand new account If you look at the feedback the seller is not listed in any of them so I am guessing it is feedback for related items.

<Derp>

 

How does he get 67 Product Reviews and 0 feedback with 0 sales or transactions?

 

He doesn't. Those reviews are for other nickels, not the sellers . The seller is Keishcraf_0. When you look at the reviews, neither the buyer or seller is this Keishcraf_0...
<Derp>

 

I didn't realize that. Thank you for the feedback. Merry Christmas.

 

Ebay is never going to change. They have never cared.

 

No, but you kind of start wondering when they can't identify coins with dates and mintmarks that don't match the description.
