I very rarely get offended Been in the business too long to have thin skin. I have never bought nor sold on Ebay. I do not know this seller at all. I look through Ebay about once per month just to get prices on various coins and to check the overall strength of the hobby. While I have chosen not to do business on Ebay, I do believe that it is a very useful tool in judging values. As this dealer sells a lot of the material brought up in this thread, I thought it appropriate to add the link in this thread. I know that my personal view on how dealers or sellers should conduct their business is a bit biased, but it is only offered in my humble opinion. Each collector must research their dealer/seller to determine if they are worth doing business with.
