<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3277600, member: 112&quot;]Back when ebay was still very young I was recruited to be part of the 1st team to find and identify fake world coins being offered on ebay. And back then there was a great deal of secrecy involved, ebay didn&#039;t even want the public to know that teams like this existed. I gave it a go for a little while but soon discovered that things were not being done the way they should be done and I would not allow myself to be a part of that so I resigned and refused to participate any longer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Point being the system employed by ebay has never worked, not from day one. And as pointed out earlier, I too agree that there is no system that even can work, not in a venue like ebay. Sure, sometimes, stress sometimes, counterfeits/fakes can be identified based on pictures, but to identify all counterfeits/fakes correctly the coins must be seen in hand by people qualified to do the job. And rather obviously that cannot happen with ebay or any online venue.</p><p><br /></p><p>For that matter not even the TPGs can do the job in some cases, and far more often than most people think - and they do see the coins in hand ! And if they can&#039;t do it, how can an organization like ebay ever hope to do it ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
