Is eBay serious about stopping fraud?

a side note

All over this forum there are toipics discussing ebay and its fakes and general ebay stuff.Though not for me to say wouldnt it be better to keep it all in one thread than being all over the place as it is just now.

a serious issue and chat is turning into spam on here.

ebizme can't read and wants to steal coins for 1% of their value

Aparantly EBIZME is a ********* who can't read and misquotes people. He got a good deal for a 100% genuine, 100% accurately described and pictured 1892-s morgan on ebay offered at absolute auction, for below AU money (according to PCGS website AU-50 is $3,500 and MS60 is $26,500) The coin was 100% accurately described and pictured. I haven't seen a nicer 1892-s since. Nowhere in the description or pictures was there any mention of PCGS or of it being even graded anything or even in a slab. All the pictures were of a 100% raw coin from my almost complete set of morgans I collected since I was 12 years old. The listing clearly stated it had "RUB" on it but was otherwise a very nice coin, nearly perfect to me, and didn't look much different to me compared to an MS65 in a PCGS holder that sold for $150,000 which is soley my personal opinion. Show us your ebay item printouts MR EBIZME ****...your the only ******** here. I gave you a refund also but told you you had to wait for me to re-sell it to someone more appreciative. I never offered a 100% satisfaction gaurantee...I only gauranteed it "100% genuine"..you trying to throw some BS into it by saying it was in a fake PCGS holder and therefore a fake coin is absurd. It was not ever in a fake pcgs holder...it was in a clear plastic generic holder you can buy for 99cents from coin world. I don't see anyone complaining about the other key dates like the 1893-s I sold on ebay 2 years ago which is now worth 3X as much etc. I sold them all absolute auction....I have no right to reneg on any of the transactions...and neither should you. Every coin had 6 or more high res large closeup scans which most people complemented me on. If in your mind you were expecting a $150,000 coin for a couple grand, I'm sorry, try reading the description or looking at the coin next time.

And the COIN TALK FORUM should be ashamed to print rubbish and give out coin collectors names and home addresses. I demand you remove all these posts. I posted 12months ago to either prove your false accusations or remove the posts.


I removed your name and address as requested. But not because you demand anything, but because it was the right thing to do. I would have done so when it was posted, but somehow I missed that part. I have also edited some of your comments which did not comply with CT rules.

Any more such comments, by anyone, that do not comply with CT rules and the thread will be closed.

 

I'm guesstimating that there are a lot more fake slabs out there than anybody knows about. Anyone who can fake coins with dies or cast fakes is probably drooling over simply opening a slab and replacing the coin. Heard of lasers?

 

I think the true number of fake coins which are slabbed might alarm most collector's, let's face it. It does happen.

As far as posting personnel information. I DON'T agree with doing it. People get mugged and killed in this business and having your address plastered all over the internet is not cool.

Also, I can tell you from fact people's screen names get hijacked and and your forum identity can be stolen. There is no need to post the personnel information. Poor Judgment...
