    ^ jeffB i think in your case the seller is garage sale hunter and got stuck with some counterfeit coins he bought and had to get the coin back to recover his $$$. As with most of these seller they have multiple ebay ids.

    Not sure are you referring to American counterfeiters? Well what i posted is my understanding how counterfeiters in china are working right now and these guys seem to know very little and actually didn't make that much money since they sold their products to middle men who then sold the counterfeits. I am not saying what you did is bad just pointing how recursively they keep improving on the design till they get it right (as we seen with pandas).

    I'm sure that happens from time to time. If he had said that, I probably would've given him the benefit of the doubt and returned the coin at my own expense. If he had just immediately pulled his other auctions, instead of continuing to list the fakes as real coins, I still might've given him the benefit of the doubt.

    Instead, he decided to act like a hard patoot, and got his patoot handed to him by eBay and PayPal.

    He'd had multiple eBay IDs before my encounter with him, and I have no reason to believe that he changed them for any nefarious purpose. With this last change, I think he's trying to escape any Googleable references to his previous ID, and I can't say that I blame him.
