Anyone like this 1916-D on the Bay?

That's nuts! I wanted to say thank you for always letting us know the evolvement of the fake industry. 8G's for that.

Which is also a federal offence as KBBPLL pointed out.

Probably since you made the point that someone was going to get ripped off for a lot of money, Ebay decided to "protect" him by removing the last guys bid, Doesn't matter that no one else was "protected" and some one still got ripped off.

Frankly there is only one way to get Ebays attention and get them to move on this and that is publicity that hurts their bottom line. It is easy for us to publicize this in the hobby, but frankly we are small potatoes as far as Ebay is concerned. No these stories of how people are being ripped of by being sold worthless counterfeits for big money, AND Ebay facilitating the fraud need to be published in the more mainstream press.

Inform the general public that Ebay has no problem helping thieves steal money from buyers. MILLIONS of people use eBay. If you can get the general public thinking that ebay is helping crooks it will start affecting their bottom line and just might convince eBay that they need to be more proactive against fraud. Fraud like what we are seeing is going on in areas all over ebay, but most people only think about their own small area of interest. If they can be made to see that it is a widespread problem across all of eBay, you have a chance of making ebay take action. Of course their first action will be to go after the person spreading the information, with lawyers.

 

And live cockroaches and spiders.

But perhaps I repeat myself.

 

I remember that case. Horrifying.

Same seller now has a raw 1895-S Morgan listed (again his only listing). Clearly counterfeit. 5 bids, $280 for now. He seems to be doling these out one at a time.
