[QUOTE="BR549, post: 985146, member: 7110"]Is it ethical to represent a coin like this. eBay policy, and the ethical thing to do is to point out known flaws.....???? Most sellers/buyers use the images of the front and back of companies plastic holders to verify the coin/grade. Should problems of graded coins be pointed out, yes and no. The e-bay rules are very specific when it comes to listing the accepted grading companies slabs and any deviation is not allowed. When the seller uses images of accepted third party graded coins, they are under no obligation to disclose any problems the coin may have developed since it's encapsulation. This is where e-bay feed back should come into play along with e-bay policies and the sellers policies. Misrepresentation is one of the main causes of buyers complaints and e-bay does take this seriously. e-Bay wants you to do everything possible to resolve dissatisfaction before contacting them with a dispute. It is totally up to you at this point to decide what recourse you have if any and whether or not your willing to go the distance to resolve this dilemma. Happy Collecting[/QUOTE]
