So far my favorite series is the Morgan dollar series. Cliche, I know. The reason is because Morgans are struck with more detail than most...
As has been said repeatedly here, buying a slabbed coin, even if not from the top three TPGs, may be worth it. I think ICG and PCI are decent....
To be honest, despite this obvious raw deal, I got plenty of value in the responses and in some strange way I feel the experience was worth it. I...
It was in a cardboard holder, not a TPG slab. But I agree that buying coins in slabs is an effective way to ensure that one receives the quality...
Well, it is a fact that even the third party graders are now calling AU coins MS, so there is a bit of subjectivity involved. I still believe the...
I agree. I never pay attention to what is written on the holder (well, sometimes, because they can at times be accurate). I drew attention to it...
Well, I knew there would be a major deduction, but I am leaning toward the view that when a coin gets scrubbed to that extent, it loses its mint...
No, because the holder was marked as MS60. What upsets me about this is not just the money and time spent, but the bad faith of some coin...
It's not a big deal. The worst that will happen is that the dealer refuses to take the coin back, and I will take a small loss by reselling it on...
Oh, the nature of eBay forces its prices to be generally uncompetitive. Since eBay charges steep fees, sellers are forced to overprice their...
In general, eBay prices are inflated, but if you use its search engine properly and sort by lowest price first for what you are specifically...
I have only started buying online recently and learned the hard way about what can happen. Interestingly enough, my experiences with eBay so far...
A lot of people here have given good feedback, even the guy who said to take this as an expensive lesson. No need to be sarcastic here, and...
This was not bought on eBay, and the coin advertised in the pic is not even the one sent to me. I understand buying online carries risks, but in...
OK, I want to show the photo as it was advertised, so people can learn from this type of deception. Here is the picture as advertised, which can...
OK, I have disputed this with Paypal and sent the owner an email. We will see. If the dealer does not work with me, I will be sure to publicize...
Does anyone here have any suggestions?
OK, here is my dilemma. I removed it from the holder, but there was no way for me to properly grade the coin without taking it out, so according...
Yeah, good idea. It was sold as MS. But frankly, this was deception plain and simple, and it was clearly in bad faith. Coin dealers are not...
Actually, since I used Paypal for the purchase, I'm probably protected. I will send this sucker back for sure. :D
