[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2379961, member: 71510"]Dear Ebay Coin Sellers, Please do not try to dupe me by posting various items in alternative weight measurements such as troy pound to avoirdupois pound. Use standard weights and measures for coins. :) We've seen the posts and sales tactics you've tried Sully...
