[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1765844, member: 36230"]Then take it back. Welcome to ebay (and selling coins in general). Take it back. Not cool, but it is clear he does not want or like the coin, so take it back. Regardless of if he actually took it to a dealer or not, you need to understand that "dealer" does not mean "expert". With a coin as popular as this, it is reasonable to assume that most real dealers should be able to ID a genuine specimen, but such a claim is really nothing more than he said she said. Your best move is to simply take it back and sell to someone else. Being as his claims are contradictory, I would not worry much about his supposed threats, but do take precautions when accepting the return. You may want to video tape the opening of the package, or if very concerned of a switch-out, take it to the police station and request that they witness the opening. The main thing here is that the buyer is clearly not satisfied with his purchase, so even if you did nothing wrong and think his actions unacceptable, just refund his money and take the return. Fighting with this guy is not worth the headache or hassle, especially when ebay will likely side with him anyways.
