<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treylxapi47, post: 1773535, member: 41863&quot;]Ill rewrite it real quick.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I found a sellers Business name, phone number and address and called them up to make a trade on some coins. I didnt want to purchase it outright, but had some coins to make the deal with. We talked, I shipped, he received, and then my coin arrived. Ebay listing came down (followed by about 10 new ones from the coins i just traded him)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Second example was that I seen a coin on ebay, didnt have the money for it, but was interested. Seen a poster come along CT with the same userID. Found out it was the same dealer, PMed through CT to arrange a lay-a-way type plan, and now im just waiting on my coin to arrive.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Both coins were located through the ebay system. One I used the listing info to make the deal on (the call), the other I just put 2 + 2 together and needed to use a lay-a-way option which ebay DOES NOT provide.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am simply asking to be shown where either of those 2 situations were out of line. I am making a big deal out of it, because these are legal ways that one might need to conduct business around ebay and I am showing that not every user has nefarious intentions in doing so. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In fact from a saving money stand point I did neither on both transactions because of the special circumstances surrounding each.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Does that clarify it better?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The reason I stood up for SCFY was because until today no one knew exactly how he contacted his seller, and with me going the routes that I did, i was making the point that yes you can go around ebay in completely legal ways to do a little business. It doesnt hurt ebay that bad, especially when we as buyers continually use ebay and intend to do so. It would be crazy for them to ban a user like myself when I spend thousands of dollars a year through them when all i did was look for an alternate way to expand my collection when money wasnt always my number one choice of payment.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am actually not that shady at all, i always try to give people fair deals on my coins im selling and throw in little extras. I work hard everyday, treat my customers right, and love my family. Not a bad person at all, but I also realize I am no saint either[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
