http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110478898617&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT I have been still looking at getting my first Gold coin.. As I look.. I will make sur I buy from My local dealer.. But I am still researching.. As I look at this coin.. The Picture is bad but the gold looks Plated to me.. Tone on a Gold coin?
Wow, that's a really bad pic and therefore a gamble of a buy. Your choice it may be a nice coin but my experience has been that if someone posts a bad pic then maybe something is wrong. Are all the sellers pics that bad? If all his pics are that bad then I don't know what to say. good luck
First (and for some, the only) rule of thumb: Raw gold + ebay = DON'T The image is too blurry to even make a decent guess. Email the seller to see if you could get a clear image. Blurry/small images usually don't equate to a good thing, and there could be a very good reason the seller uses cruddy images. While the seller's feedback is good, I personally wouldn't buy raw gold from ebay...only graded by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG (the ebay approved TPG's). That's just MY opinion.
Thanks,, I am NOT buying from Ebay.. Just using for research. I like to know the going prices.. I will be buying from my Local shop.. I trust him, I just like to know since if I find something from him.. and see that I can sell for a bit on ebay.. at a profit.. I may buy two.. Wife yells at me.. I sell one and make a profit then the wife stops yelling... Its a whole plan "thing", So many plans.. I am thinking about selling some silver.. I got most of mine when it was low 9.00 range or so.. .. Send some $$ to Haiti.. She can't yell at me for that.... Or can she?
Rule #1: If you have to ask, then it probably isn't real; RUle#2: If it is on eBay, then read rule #1.
And many, many others as well. Did you notice though that there were now 15 bidders? Sure wish they would join this forum.
