[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 3089502, member: 36230"]Nice attempted deflection, but this has nothing to do with a "moral compass" and has everything to do with expectations as well as personal accountability. That said, let's be honest here, shall we? First, let's also revisit... With the understanding your little faux paux regarding the "fake" slab has already been addressed, you seem very bothered by the claimed grade, so could it be that we have yet another example of a newbie thinking he can buy basement junk believing the coin within somewhat on par with top plastic, and reap the rewards from doing so? Do notice how you've said nothing detailed about the coin inside and have only focused on the claimed "grade". There's usually a very good reason for this. Even if not the case, the only arguable fraud here comes from [I]you[/I], sir, and can be evidenced by your own posts. [I]You[/I] didn't know what [I]you[/I] were buying and now want to place all blame on the seller for [I]YOUR[/I] own mistake instead of wisely accepting this as an insanely cheap learning experience. [I]You[/I] couldn't care less about potentially damaging this man's little business and for no other reason that refusing to accept blame and shoulder responsibility for what was [I]you[/I], [I]you[/I], and only [I][U]you[/U][/I]. The greater point and should-be lesson here is that regardless of whatever eBay policy designed to protect fools from themselves is used as an excuse, the seller offered an [I]obvious[/I] widget in a [I][U]perfectly[/U][/I] reasonable manner. In [I]NO WAY[/I] did he misrepresent the coin and even if not familiar with INB, simply typing seven letters into google would have immediately enlightened you as to exactly what INB is and means (see below).
