[QUOTE="kanga, post: 4851105, member: 9270"]I was surfing [U]slabbed[/U] coins in eBay and ran into the same old problem. Many sellers on eBay of slabbed coins, particularly NGC slabs, just don't seem to understand that if the buyer can't see images containing reasonable details, the coins are probably not going to sell. Or worse yet, the coins could be returned for refund if they did sell. Imaging a coin, particularly brown copper coins, on a white background will too often result in a dark disc on which details are not visible. And the white insert in NGC slabs compound the problem. I'd love to be able to zip them a message asking if they would buy a coin if the images looked like theirs. Of course there are at least two problems with that: -- I'd spend a big chunk of time messaging sellers with lousy coin images -- eBay would probably expel me. So back to the question. How can we get the sellers to include reasonable images? Actually I strongly suspect it's not possible, but I thought I'd ask.[/QUOTE]
