[QUOTE="Blaubart, post: 1605048, member: 37498"]Are you? The way I see it, you read their auction descriptions and made exactly the assumptions they wanted you to make. You didn't buy the items based on those assumptions, but instead made accusations based on them. Either way, they said X, likely with the intention to get you to assume Y, and you assumed Y. For example: When they said: "WHEAT ROLL WITH INDIAN HEAD CENTS SHOWING ON BOTH ENDS (50 Coins Total) -UNSEARCHED" You probably assumed they're claiming they found the roll with the Indian Head Cents on both sides, and there could be more Indian Head Cents inside the roll, and they haven't searched the roll for other valuable coin. What does "Unsearched" even mean in a legal sense? Maybe they bought a ton of wheat pennies and are just putting them in rolls without looking for valuable coins. Would that be "unsearched"? I don't see anywhere in the auction where the seller says anything along those lines, but you want the seller BANNED. In the auction with the grandfather clock, why can't an infinite number of coins come from a grandfather clock? An infinite amount of food can come from my pantry. It doesn't mean that was the food that was in there when I bought the house. In the text of the auction, it says something along the lines of "...this auction includes one of the items found..." Maybe they found 200 rolls of wheat pennies in the clock and they're auctioning off a bunch of crap along with one of those wheat pennies.[/QUOTE]
