<p>[QUOTE=&quot;C-B-D, post: 1707586, member: 43130&quot;]A year or two ago, I emailed an eBay seller telling him all of his 8 capped bust halves were counterfeits. It was pretty obvious, but not to the novice collector. He refused to remove them so me and a few seller friends reported him and eBay removed them. After looking at his feedback, he had a few neutrals from buyers that said his coins were fake but he accepted a return. A few months later, he&#039;s selling those same capped halves again along with some key dates in AU condition... like an 1811 half cent and a 1876 CC 20 cent (yeah right!). So I&#039;m telling a seller buddy of mine about this and he gets on the guy&#039;s feedback and emails all his old buyers to get their coins checked. Quite a few responded and opened cases against this guy. After some time, the negatives pile up, but still eBay won&#039;t do anything about him.&nbsp; </p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>So then</i>, my buddy calls the U.S. Secret Service on the guy <b>AND</b> buys a couple fake 2 cent pieces from him and turns them over to the secret service! Next he Googles the guy&#039;s actual name and finds out he&#039;s been in jail 3 times. Once for 2, 10-year concurrent terms in Missouri for robbing a post office and selling the stamps in his Dad&#039;s coin and stamp shop (back in the 1960&#039;s). Once for selling fraudulent bonds in the 1980&#039;s, and he just got out of jail in FL in 2007 after doing a number of years for creating 8.2 million dollars in fake bonds and selling them to another crook loan shark for more than $2 MILLION DOLLARS!</p><p><br /></p><p>After his latest series of negatives, he privatized his feedback and yanked all his auctions. But eBay <b>still </b>hasn&#039;t done a thing to remove him. Amazing and terribly disappointing![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
