<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Andrew5, post: 2417624, member: 74569&quot;]Let&#039;s be honest - when you buy online, even a graded coin, you are taking a risk.&nbsp; No picture, no matter how well done can capture the effect of seeing a coin in your hand.&nbsp; That said IMHO a legit ebay seller is one who:</p><p><br /></p><p>- offers 14 day returns.&nbsp; A modest expense and no different then many retailers.&nbsp; Not much different of an expense then a day at the coin show with food and parking expenses.</p><p><br /></p><p>- takes high quality pix. Not holding the coin in his hand or laying it on a wood table but with overhead and back lighting.</p><p><br /></p><p>- points out known problem areas. Not everyone is an expert in everything and some problems slip by people.</p><p><br /></p><p>- may give an assessment of grade but we all know grading is subjective anyway.&nbsp; If they give a grade they should say why.&nbsp; &quot;This Barber has full liberty&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>- offers to answer questions.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rest is on us as buyers to use our best judgment and not blame someone else if we get taken.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you think someone is shill bidding then the joke is on them because if they get stuck with it they have to pay eBay their fee!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
