<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 1287096, member: 2098&quot;]I like your taking the initiative but getting ebay to ban such sellers (which is rare for them to do) will do nothing more than push them underground making it difficult for collectors to identify such sellers. Next time after getting banned they will get smarter, perhaps producing even better counterfeits and using fronts to hide their true location, etc. This is why it is best for sellers like you mentioned to be allowed to remain out in the open, essentially left undisturbed in their fake coin sales.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I guess counterfeits don&#039;t really concern or phase me too much as far as maintaining the sanctity/integrity of this hobby for the simple fact that counterfeits have been around for as long as coins themselves, which were first created about 600 B.C.
