<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 282850, member: 8033&quot;]I think a lot of the problem does lie with the power sellers that KNOW they are not giving what they promise.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t bid that often but when I do it usually includes real good communication between me and seller before I bid. If I ask a legit question and get no reply I do NOT bid. Simple.</p><p><br /></p><p>Really only been ripped off once in my ebay &quot;infancy&quot;. Bought a roll of average circulatd Standing Liberty and Barber quarters. Never realized that scratching initials into coins was that big back then because over half had that problem. Took my lumps on that one and sold them as junk silver eventually.</p><p><br /></p><p>I HAVE returned coins on a few occasions and managed to get positive feedback while leaving same. Guess I got lucky there.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best one was when I won a nice uncirculated 2 Cent Piece. Got the coin in the mail and it WAS nice only problem was that it was an 1865. Guy thought he still had the 66 as it turned out.</p><p>Told him I did like the 65 just wasn&#039;t willing to pay as much. I shot him an offer and he promply sent money back for the difference.</p><p>Could have been disastrous but as it turned out we both kept level heads and both walked away happy with positive feedbacks.</p><p><br /></p><p>Guess my whole point is to ask questions. I verify return policies and anything else I can think of. I also tell sellers up front that I will return coins so if they don&#039;t have what I&#039;m looking for just tell me and I won&#039;t bid. Saves us both time in the long run.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
