[QUOTE="cdb1950, post: 33767, member: 1735"]Actually, this new policy will hold Ebay completely harmless in a transaction involving coin fraud. I think that is the bottom line, here. I collect and occasionally sell Gallery Mint coin reproductions on Ebay and always try to include in the title and description a note that what I am selling is a COPY, but once in a while I overlook that and will only mention in the title or the description. There are some self-appointed 'Ebay police' out there that will quickly remind me that I am selling a FAKE piece of scrap metal and should describe it as such. I can't bring myself to go that far, but I have no problem with saying it is a COPY or REPRODUCTION, just sometimes I forget (a senior moment, you know). Also, I don't really have a problem with a manager not being an expert in the coin business as long as she is an expert manager and can figure out what is good advice and what is something else.
