Are you sure about that? Because I just checked, and see the coin still listed, with 0 bids and a starting bid of 99 cents.
Looks like Merc Crazy's in the background with his bandana down again. So much for keeping things anon. :goofer:
When a seller voluntarily ends an auction, you will still see the auction as it was originally, with a message as to why the auction was ended (see McBlzr's post). This message is kinda small, and is in a yellow box at the top of the auction page, immediately below the category. If eBay PULLS the auction, you will just get a message screen.
Dear XXXXXXXX, Thanks for reporting this listing to us. I investigated this listing and confirmed that I removed it earlier today as a counterfeit. Again, thank you for your report. We appreciate your help in keeping eBay a safe and reputable forum to conduct business.

Is there a way to do a screen capture for some of these counterfeit auctions while they're still up? I always hate it when I get to a thread like this and the auction's already taken down. Kudos to the watchdogs here!
