<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinGal07, post: 261456, member: 8843&quot;]Well, this is perplexing .. I&#039;ve never purchased anything from this person but after viewing this post I checked any other items he has for sale including yours.&nbsp; The problem is that the photo &amp; desciption do show the coin as a proof - when he mentions it arrives in a blue velvet box with an eagle - but the headline is wrong so it was misleading to read as &#039;burnished unc&#039;...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So I messaged him about one of his other items with the same error &#039;you should correct this because it is misleading and will likely lead to seller issues w/the buyer ... and he wrote back &#039;you know, I think you&#039;re right - that&#039;s just what the ad read when we got them ..&#039; and he did change the header on the ad.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>BUT ... the rest of his ads still have the &#039;burnished unc&#039; on proof coins .. so either he didn&#039;t bother to go look and change those or only prefers to fix once caught / informed - so I individually messaged him on all of the eagles he has adv as burnished uncs but are actually proofs.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>SOOOOOO ... perhaps ... where writing ebay about sellers misleading the buyers (the mass contacting we do that seems futile at times) we may want to try the same - writing the seller on each item we note as inaccurate - by &#039;viewing sellers other items&quot; ... copy &amp; paste about correcting the ad.&nbsp; Maybe some are true errors???&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Don&#039;t jump on me.. I definitely believe they shouldn&#039;t sell what they dont know.. that &#039;i&#039;m not a coin dealer I&#039;m just selling this thing for an outrageous sum of money&#039; excuse is horrid and that all sellers should make the buys right.&nbsp; I&#039;m just offering another possibility as I see this topic a lot and the frustration seems to continue rather than resolve.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks ~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
