<p>[QUOTE=&quot;definer, post: 1654668, member: 39713&quot;]@AJ I completely understand where you&#039;re coming from but I would put this in the context of the purchase being made at a LCS. You most likely would have gone into the shop and told the person behind the counter what had happened, gotten a refund, and walked out satisfied with the transaction. In this case, you (and the seller) take advantage of the anonymity offer by the internet to make a bigger issue out of it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve bought and sold on eBay since before it was eBay and have had very few problems. In one case I was outright lied to but most of the others were simple misunderstandings. I recently had one where the auction information said it was for a 6 coin lot of Franklins and I won for a fantastic price of $36. When the coins arrived there were only three and, in fairness, only three were shown in the auction&#039;s picture. I contacted the seller who said he&#039;d made a mistake and had posted the 6 coin statement under the influence of cough syrup. True or not I don&#039;t know but He offered to make it right and we settled on a free coin and positive feedback from me.&nbsp; A win-win for both of us.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do agree with you regarding including the shipping cost when buying from some non-eBay sellers. For those of us that are small buyers The cost of the postage has to be factored in. I will still buy bullion off eBay but only things like Johnson Matthey bars. They can still be faked but I&#039;ll take the chance for a good deal. I also buy bullion from aydincoins.com</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand how you feel but I always give people the benefit of the doubt and look for the win-win. It&#039;s worked for me but YMMV!&nbsp; :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
