<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 412161, member: 12965&quot;]What you are doing is mixing apples and oranges, which is very common, considering life is fruit salad. :eating:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Deceit and Fraud are two different things. In one of my messages I said this:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The first thing I must do is to provide the definition of DECEITFUL:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font size="2">2.</font><font size="2">intended to deceive; <u><b>misleading</b></u>; fraudulent: a deceitful action. </font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When a listing is made and ignorance is involved with the MISINFORMATION, it is still misleading and therefore, deceitful in nature (aka: deceit). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fraud, on the other hand, is intentional deceit and when ignorance comes into play, it is unintentional deceit. However, when a seller unintentionally provides false information and someone explains their mistake to them sufficiently and they don&#039;t correct their error, then ignorance becomes fraudulent and the deceit becomes intentional and if the seller is so ignorant they can&#039;t &quot;get it&quot; they shouldn&#039;t be selling on Ebay! :hammer:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It has been said that ignorance is bliss, for those who are ignorant but when ignorance costs you money, it ain&#039;t bliss anymore! :headbang:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ps: The rest of your advice is RIGHT ON! :thumb: Stick with what you know! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Pps: I bought a counterfeit 1740 Double Sol but I knew it was a counterfeit and highly collectable. I didn&#039;t have one and the price was low, so I figured I&#039;d add one to my Colonial Collection but if someone had bought it as the real deal, they wouldn&#039;t have been hurt monetarily but they wouldn&#039;t have ended up with an authentic example for their collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
