<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2302341, member: 42773&quot;]In my opinion, this is a classic case of situational ethics. If I cherry-pick a coin from a seller on eBay or any other auction platform, a seller that I don&#039;t know, I can&#039;t seriously be expected to share my profits with that person. I buy and sell quite a few coins - I have several hundred to deal with at the moment as a matter of fact. Accounting takes long enough without having to make payouts to previous owners, as generous as the gesture may seem. It would bog me down to a snail&#039;s pace.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, I did win an auction of two very nice coins for 99 cents, because the seller had terrible pics and the auction ended in the middle of a work day, and nobody else bid. I sent that seller $20 and a little advice on how to set up an auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>On yet another hand, I&#039;ve bought coins from friends on this forum, coins that sold much better than I expected, and in that case I split the profits with them. Why? Because I like my friends.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
