[QUOTE="NewStyleKing, post: 7338045, member: 106483"]Ancient Greek coins ebay has never in the last 10 years of my collecting life so many egregious fakes as now. I guess Romans are even worse with many original coins looking fake when produced 1700 years or so ago! As eBay acts as a solely as an intermediary between seller and buyer it seems to be able to get away with murder just like "Thief-taker" extraordinaire Jonathan Wild. He went too far when he started turning in some of his underlings for the reward who was subsequently "turned off". He himself, subsequently faced the hangman's noose and he wasn't happy about it and tried to commit suicide but to no avail, he faced the booing, hissing dung-throwing crowd and had a hard death suffocating as he swung. His skeleton is in the Hunterian collection! So he was anatomised too! Who thinks Mr E-bay should suffer the fate of Mr Wild?[/QUOTE]
