[QUOTE="NPCoin, post: 788597, member: 5629"]As slick as this seller has been, he made a mistake in his pitch: Regardless if he simply said "1909 VDB" throughout the rest of his pitch, at this point here in his pitch, he expressly stated the reference to the 1909 S VDB for $125. This may well have some interesting legal ramifications. Edited to add: I should also note that because he simply said "1909 VDB" that somebody should know they are not getting a 1909-S VDB is moot. The "least sophisticated" consumer would not necessarily understand the difference between the 1909-S VBD and a "1909 VDB" cent. This "least sophisticated" consumer philosophy would play a large role in any legal outcome. Furthermore, just under the statement referenced, there is a graphic stating "Click here to buy a 1909 cent now". Would that then mean that because you clicked on that particular link that he could send you a regular 1909 cent and NOT a 1909 V.D.B.? I think not. Again, the final outcome here will be very interesting indeed.[/QUOTE]
