[QUOTE="pghcoindude, post: 385846, member: 15022"]hi guys first off, this is my first post to coin talk, as I have just joined the community 10 min ago I will start off by saying I have a unique/crazy opinion regarding this isabella quarter. Since the seller is guaranteeing the weight, I think its safe to bid on. Now of course, it could still be fake. Heres how I feel: a) the seller is telling you everything he can to ensure authenticity. Weight esp. b) the seller has a great positive feedback rating - 517 and 99.6 positive c) the cardinal reason - Theres no bid, and its set at 185, what does this mean? If you buy it for $200 or less (its actually in the add, $200 in pay pal protection), pay pal will go after him to get your money back. You are basically paying 1/3 to 1/4 the retail price, and with a pay pal money back guarantee. You either get your money back, or get a $600 coin (one that I always wanted) for $180 to $200.
