<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2509299, member: 76194&quot;]You&#039;ve learned a few valuable lessons today.</p><p><br /></p><p>1) Stay away from Ebay unless you are an expert on a certain coin and can judge accurately a coin from an image, and even then, best to still stay away from Ebay. A lot of counterfeits and junk there...probably much more than authentic products.</p><p><br /></p><p>2) If it seems too good to be true in terms of price, availability, etc., it&#039;s probably a fake. Better yet, if you have the slightest doubt, just walk away.</p><p><br /></p><p>3) Only buy from reputable dealers with a lifetime authenticity guarantee, even if you have to pay a little more than elsewhere.</p><p><br /></p><p>4) And don&#039;t buy anything that you have no clue what it is, you are only asking for trouble.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Chinese, Bulgarians, and Greek counterfeiters thank you for your dollars. The best lessons are seldom free.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: That&#039;s where most counterfeits seem to come from these days. If it&#039;s a fake of an American, it was probably made in China. If it was a fake of an ancient, Bulgaria or Greece. Never buy a coin from those places....but be aware that a lot of US based scammers on Ebay buy from these sources and then sell the fakes here in the US, so don&#039;t be fooled by a US based seller.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
