<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 360341, member: 6370"]I understand the sentiment as I, at one time, felt the need to run to the ancients forum every time I found a fake (or what I thought was a fake) ancient for sale. Its a full time job that almost never does any good as ebay doesn't know you from Adam. Getting people from a coin forum to pile on doesn't help much I would think....nor should it...I dont think most people here should be making that call nor do they need to be teaching anything...I include myself in this generalization. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I am not a teacher, I am a collector.</p><p> </p><p>I think I did it because I felt the need to try to 'clean-up' ebay...thought since I had seen a lot of coins that made me some kind of authority. Why does anyone crusade against something. I soon realized it wasn't worth it, nothing I was doing was going to help much. I see fakes there every time I look on ebay...I just pass them by now....and I still see just as many. Sometimes I will post, just for a laugh, some of the real real bad fakes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
