<p>[QUOTE=&quot;OldGoldGuy, post: 2081961, member: 72697&quot;]Apparently I broke some forum rules in the previous posts with [USER=52245]@AWORDCREATED[/USER], so I am going to plead the 5th on this one. But I will say my explanation was precise, concise and logical, was agreed with by all who had time to read it, contained no foul language and I am in the dark as to why anything I wrote was moderated away.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for you, trying to find some extraneous detail for this mystery ebay seller/coin that would justify my being blocked is a waste of time and I am shocked you invested the time to type out that response. You did it AFTER it was moderated into the void. Further, I do not really want to call attention to the particular coin and have it snatched up by someone else not searching for it as actively as I do simply because they read this (yes, I have seen threads where someone brought up a listing they were interested in only to have another CT member become informed and outbid the OP who found the coin, maybe mislabeled or not properly described and is a diamond in the rough) should it appear again in the near future. I also don&#039;t think it is very classy to drag an ebay sellers name into this over the nature of the &quot;crime&quot;, it would almost feel slanderous. Had he sent me a shiny penny instead of a coin purchased and was pulling a scam, yes, I would alert my community to the scam. My stories intent was COMICAL in how testy people can be. Or how unrealistic people on eBay can be (because gosh, that isn&#039;t the topic of 100+ threads).</p><p><br /></p><p>And lets make this simple; if I REALLY was willing to pay the ridiculous price being asked and FEARED I had lost out on this coin, and now I am blocked, would it really be so hard to call my brother and have him just BIN for me? derp derp.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and lets not forget the part of my post you clearly overlooked. A 100% rating. Every single feedback mentions my fast payment or &quot;gentleman negotiator&quot;. If only for the coins currently listed, I am not too worried about being blocked: by [USER=52245]@AWORDCREATED[/USER], you, or this other seller. As I said, blocking is not the scepter of power you eBay sellers make it out to be, if I wanted either one of your listed coins, I have the money and intelligence to get it, clearly.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lets not make this into something it isn&#039;t and both get spanked for no reason. My original post was humorous and comical in nature, no need to have it take a turn to the dirty, whether real or incorrectly perceived by the mods. It seems any disagreement (ON A FORUM MEANT FOR DISCUSSING DIFFERENT IDEAS/PERSPECTIVES/OPINIONS) is quickly swept under the rug as it is already. I should invest in some ballet shoes for the toe support necessary for the tiptoeing around out of fear of breaking one persons interpretation of a rule.</p><p><br /></p><p>And not for nothing, but I would hardly call myself &quot;disagreeable&quot; or &quot;problematic&quot;, both on this site and in life. Clean record on all accounts. And for a stats man, my like-to-post ratio is over 50%; this was actually pointed out to me. Statistically, I am a likeable guy![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
