<p>[QUOTE="Jess, post: 287539, member: 77"]Buying on ebay is like buying a pig in a poke, I use paypal and money orders. I stay away from sellers with a lot of neutrals or negatives especially if their feedback is less than 500. A dealer who has 10,000 feedbacks wil have negatives and neutrals just because of the way people are. Paypal is a tool no more or less as is feedback. Ebay is the biggest coin store out there, everyone can get to it. Do not get caught in bidding wars, wait an hour and most of the time that all so necessary coin will be back. Don't get caught up in the hype, if a seller does not use photographs stay away. I tend to stay away from sellers who do not know or understand coin lingo (nice coin is not a grade neither is pretty), Bu does not mean butt ugly as some sellers describe their coins as BU and haven't been for years. Still the old saying is true there is one born every minute and I will admit to being taken on ebay, not often bu it happens. a2J[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
