<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1250505, member: 31533"]I believe EBay did, as I was on their earlier today and saw it with my "question" to the seller, and his stock answer. The bidding had gone up also from 12 bids to 13 at that time, so I "knew" he (the seller) really had no intention of taking his item down, or he would have done that much earlier (as an honest seller on ebay before, I had the unfortunate experience of having other members tell me my item (twice) was not what I was saying and I either corrected it or took it down. The one time I had an issue with someone who informed me on that, and I left it up, EBay took it down. I ate the losses on all three items, but it taught me to be more careful when describing an item.) </p><p><br /></p><p>Plus after looking at the fact that he would purchase replicas, describe his item as a Seated Liberty (someone who doesn't know coins, and doesn't look up enough info to make the item's description probably wouldn't even know to call it that. They would list as OLD Coin, Great for it's age or something like that, and then to pawn any problems off as "I don't know coins" is, in essence, putting the onus on the bidder/buyer for what is the seller's responsibility.) I know from when I started selling first editions, I made the mistake of putting the words "fine for it's age" and being called out by a buyer who when he got it found out it was not "Fine" as in condition, which is a knowledge point for buyers and sellers of old or rare books.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, I do believe Ebay finally responded to the (at least) 2 complaints it got on this item. But watch for him to put it in a lot or something in order to get it sold.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
