<p>[QUOTE="wxcoin, post: 3017929, member: 74624"]I think in the end you have two camps here. One camp falls under "if it looks too good to be true then it's too good to be true"; nobody is going to sell a $500 coin for $50. If you buy it then it's your problem. The other camp falls under "the seller should be liable for selling a fake coin and get reported"; refund the buyers money. In both instances, most of the blame falls on the buyer. Nothing was said here about the seller claiming it was real. If such claim was made then a full refund is in order. However, how many pawn shops put disclaimers on their merchandise?</p><p><br /></p><p>If it was me I would have done a little more research first before paying $50. Even at that, $50 isn't a big sum of money to take a chance with. That said, looking at the coin in hand I probably would have taken a pass.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
