[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3224875, member: 112"]Believe it or not what he offered you was a very fair offer, one that was consistent with current market prices. Do you know what this comment tells me ? It tells me the same thing I've been saying for years - that it is the buyers on ebay who are the ones being exploited due to their ignorance, their lack of knowledge. Ya know how there's thread after thread on the forum criticizing the hypesters and shysters who sell coins on TV for way more than they are worth ? To the tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of buyers who have no idea what they are doing. Well, that's pretty much what ebay has turned into - it's just another version of the TV scams. Only it's one that allows John Q Public to participate in those scams. It allows the average citizen to be the one taking advantage of all the other average citizens who have no idea what they are doing when they buy coins. That's what ebay has turned into, only it didn't happen recently - it happened years ago. But there is one difference - I'm not sure that some of the folks selling on ebay even realize what it is they are doing ![/QUOTE]
