<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ToughCOINS, post: 2024509, member: 20480&quot;]Spotted this fake tonight . . . <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1865-Indian-Princess-Head-Large-Head-Gold-Coin-/161493098310?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1865-Indian-Princess-Head-Large-Head-Gold-Coin-/161493098310?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1865-Indian-Princess-Head-Large-Head-Gold-Coin-/161493098310?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123</a></p><p><br /></p><p>After politely informing seller that his coin is a forgery, he responded,</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;They are not fake, but if you want to send it back that is up to you. I deal with people who have been in the coin industry for over 50 years. Get real.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Then I let him know that I have nearly 45 years experience in the industry myself, to which he replied,</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;You are a fool, on the last message I thought you had already bought something from me. You are a complete idiot. This coin has been verified by multiple coin shops to be real. Don&#039;t bid on it if you feel it&#039;s fake. The coin is worth over 2500. Don&#039;t even know why I am bothering replying to you. &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I politely repeated my assertion, writing, &quot;Classy reply . . . I suppose you believe that all coin dealers are true students of coins, and not just profiteers who don&#039;t take the time to really know how to authenticate well.&nbsp; You are putting unsuspecting buyers at great financial risk.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I have not heard back from him since.&nbsp; Evidently, he is intent on ignoring me, and taking some unsuspecting buyer&#039;s hard earned money.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have reported the item to eBay, but expect a slow response, if any at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>Would anyone else care to ping off this guy?&nbsp; Perhaps he&#039;d be more convinced if he heard from a number of people.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
