[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 1941572, member: 20480"]This selling tatic is practiced in more areas than just with PL coins. Unfortunately, eBay is ill-equipped to deal with such practices, because they do not employ experts, and do not wish to consistently follow the recommendations of outside experts either. They want to favor their big buyers against the complaints of small sellers and favor the big sellers against the complaints of the small buyers . . . in a nutshell, they want to have their cake and eat it too. If I recall accurately, eBay recently abandoned consulting those with expertise in favor of making the call on their own . . . regarding keyword spamming, concerns over authenticity, in situations similar to that raised by the OP, etc. In a marketplace where grading, eye appeal, and definitions of cleaning and alteration are so highly subjective, eBay has no reference with which to make reliably respectable decisions. Good luck to 'em . . .[/QUOTE]
