I believe you are correct if they listed an item as, for example, "1873 Trade Dollar", and it turns out to be fake. However, if they clearly state...
Personally I would prefer a credit card with Paypal just as an extra level of security. Yes, Paypal usually helps if there is fraud, but you can...
FWIW, if the coin had been genuine it would have been worth less than a normal 1886 I believe. Its a hard trap, and have seen it many times. Error...
I was trying to be nice and give some benefit of the doubt, but I am very sure you are right. I do like the fact so many newspapers publish...
I had a stamp made stating COPY that I stamp into all of my black box material. You can check a dealer to see if they have one. I never would sell...
