<p>[QUOTE="BoneDust, post: 1195538, member: 24592"]One of the problems for sellers on Ebay is that they don't give insurance and tracking on items sent. This is a problem for the buyer too. If you are a seller put your insurance fee into your shipping price and tell all free insurance on your pages. Tracking is free if you get the labels online. Buyers should always check for insured items and if there are no returns. </p><p><br /></p><p>Before I got smart I was sending out items without anything. A couple of times the buyers had sent me messages stating that they got the package but the item was missing. This is bad for the sellers as they would have to give a refund. How do you prove that you sent something?</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are a seller you need to give a good description of the items and nice pictures that can oversize. Give returns on single items but not on bulk. Some buyers buy bulk, pick out certain coins, and then ask for returns. That's bad for us sellers. If you are a buyer become knowladgeable about the item you are buying. Buy some books and learn to grade coins. Read about counterfeits, fakes, and cleaned coins. This will help not getting scammed. Some sellers are honest and some sellers are not. Also some sellers tend to over grade and say Hey! It's in EXTREMELY FINE CONDITION!!!! when it's only very fine. Once you become knowladgeable you can get great deals on your coins since some people just don't know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
