[QUOTE="clembo, post: 361924, member: 8033"]There is always a risk with online auctions etc. I say etc. as Coinbug is not an auction site. I do sell and occasionally buy on ebay. Very cautious when buying. I've sold on Overstock as well. As a seller one has a lot of problems with non paying bidders. I've bought a few very nice coins on CoinBug and sell there as well. Many from CT are starting to take an interest which is good. Provides a better base IMHO. I have seen some ridiculous things and that really can't be helped. They're also not hard to spot. High dollar coins with no pictures and no feedback. Big red flags. Of course a lot of people have no feedback there as the site is still small. You ARE allowed to provide links to your ebay feedback and I do. It will grow and problem sellers is inevitable. I have tried a few others over the years and not been too thrilled. Haven't done any of the larger "auction houses" like Teletrade so I can' t comment. I think there is always a risk no matter where you go. Be careful and good luck! clembo[/QUOTE]
