<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MIGuy, post: 7834756, member: 116145&quot;]I think this is good advice, I&#039;ve been buying on eBay since 2000, and have sold some things too - including some expensive Swiss watches.&nbsp; I am very careful of buying raw, I don&#039;t mind details coins, depending on the details, but I&#039;m not going to pay straight graded prices for details coins.&nbsp; One key thing to do is to ask the seller if the coin is cleaned or damaged, especially if it&#039;s a big coin seller.&nbsp; They sometimes are a bit coy on the listings but they won&#039;t make a material misrepresentation to someone who knows enough to ask the question (who would be filing a refund request with eBay if they failed to disclose).&nbsp; I have gotten more into buying slabbed coins over the years, it is safer, but ultimately I&#039;m a bargain shopper for shiny objects.&nbsp; Also!&nbsp; Someone mentioned in a thread here that they were being charged sales tax on coins and they lived in a state that didn&#039;t do that.&nbsp; I looked into it and it turns out I do too, so eBay gave me a refund of over $500 in sales tax charges.&nbsp; They are still charging me though, so I&#039;ll be making another request every few months to address it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
