[QUOTE="snapsalot, post: 1422504, member: 37085"]The best thing is to find sellers who have ethics. Its like if you go to a coin show, or say a random coin shop, they may or may not be ethical or have morals. Sometimes they will be very truthful and not rip people off (btw rip off means sell something saying its one thing but its really not, getting top dollar is just good business in nearly all cases).

Point is theres good sellers on Ebay and bad sellers. Some of us go out of their way to be honest on Feebay. Taking pictures that make the coin look slightly worse then it does irl and showing off its imperfections even more so just so that people are not surprised (in a bad way) when they receive their coin. Then there is the bad guys who write misleading ads with vague titles and blurry pictures in an attempt to deceive and hope they trick someone into paying for something that is not what they thought it would be. Just stick to the good guys and you won't be dissapointed.[/QUOTE]
