[QUOTE="Deerslayer88, post: 4643497, member: 113513"]I cannot understand for the life of me why some sellers (especially on eBay) post coins for sale and only use PCGS TrueView images, and nothing else. I’m sorry but no way would I buy a coin based on those over-saturated, color-juiced “beauty shots” and nothing else. I mean sure, include those but how hard is it to snap a couple images from different angles of each side with even an iPhone camera. I’m sure I’m not alone... Im sure some will say “ I’ll just return if I don’t like it”.... Anyone out there comfortable with buying a coin having seen only the TrueViews? Here’s an example: I may have already claimed this dime if there was any other/additional image available to corroborate the color/toning appeal. I did ask seller for some and was told that all the coins were in a bank safe deposit box, therefore additional pictures weren’t possible. And I’ve done business with this seller before!! I’m curious to hear what others think about this. [ATTACH=full]1147456[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1147456[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
