When you offer someone a second chance on eBay it automatically offers it at the bidder's highest bid price. The seller can't control that.
I don't see the logic in paying extra to bid on an auction. I could wait until the last minute and bid for free if I really wanted to. I used to...
Hard to say. Unlike the other case I had recently with the seller using a shill bidder, I have no evidence that these people deliberately were...
No. The way it was described in the auction was like "Weird Chinese token, medal or something" so I can't really say they misrepresented it. I...
I didn't see that option but I will look later. I know it's only a few dollars but it just makes me feel cheated. Granted, I got the item for an...
Well, I am convinced it was shill bidding. No one has 100 percent of their bids with the same seller. The seller wrote back and said the buyer...
I bid on this lot of coins, and was outbid. A little while later, I get a second chance offer with no message or anything. I wanted the coins so I...
Something else that might be worth a shot is if you find a seller on eBay or another site in the country you are interested in, contact them...
This is also what I was going to say. You can find great deals at coin shops looking through world coin bins because many dealers view them as...
I sell mostly foreign coins, and I started offering international shipping a few months ago and have sold a lot more coins since then. I get more...
That's what makes it so hard to find modern coins is that when you do locate them, the prices tend to be so much higher than they are actually...
It's hard to fill modern series. I have a bunch of holes in my Italian series, mostly in the 1980s and 1990s because no one feels like they are...
Thanks for the info. Very interesting.
Thanks for the explanation.
I saw this auction on eBay and I thought the surface looked really weird on this coin. Do you think it's a fake or is there a good reason for it...
Yeah, I can see some differences comparing it to a real one. Thanks for the info.
How do you know the holes are from casting and not wear? I'm not doubting you, I'm just trying to understand how to see this. To my inexperience...
Yes, there is the argument that the language is always changing, so we might as well go with the flow. But the other way of looking at it is that...
I think that it is informative to see what other people are willing to pay for something. I buy the coins that I like, and one way I think about...
I work as a copy editor. The Internet is just one big source of aggravation for me, along with restaurant signs, store signs, garage sale signs, etc.
