    Just posting some friendly advice to help you not make a bad deal.

    eBay seller "coins.with.equity"

    Sells a lot of basement slabbed coins under "GSA". (Previously NGA) These coins have not been correctly graded, many of them says PR66 or MS66.

    This seller also has made rude remarks to buyers and has threatened people who left negative feedback with lawsuit

    To play devil's advocate yes he is unprofessional but he is not advertising them as MS66 or PR66 so it is buyers' fault for not grading the coin properly.

    To follow up that point, there are many tools out there (e.g., Toolhaus Feedback Searches) that help in making an informed decision regarding purchase of any item on eBay. While that particular seller is not one I would deal with personally, and the threatening remarks over feedback are just plain outrageous, the decision of any purchase ultimately is the responsibility of the buyer.

    In some ways eBay was more fun when I got to be in a lawsuit. Only happened once, the seller was doing a ponzi scheme selling gold and platinum bullion coins. Which worked great for him until the market moved against him in a big way. He then resorted to mailing empty packages via registered mail and claiming they must have been pilfered in the mail. I was one of the guys who didn't get his coin, a 1999 quarter ounce platinum eagle that I had paid $119 to the seller via check. Really didn't think I would ever see my money or the coin when word spread that one of the other buyers who got ripped-off was a Georgia State Trooper. Those guys take getting ripped-off rather personal, and said trooper took a week of vacation to head up-state New York to tesitfy against the seller. fast forward nearly 2 years after the transaction, I go to my mailbox and lo and hehold a check for my $119 from some victims restitution fund. Of course by then the same coin was a $200 coin (now a $450 coin). But at least I got my money back.
