<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bzcollektor, post: 63287, member: 3241&quot;]I just took umbrage at the blanket statement by Mike. He says flat out, that ebay sellers are shillers. No qualifications to the statement. Not, <i>some sellers on ebay set up dual accounts to bid ontheir own auctions</i>. He is, of course, entitled to his opinion. I could not let a statement like that go unchallenged. I have run into many <b>fine sellers</b> in my years on ebay. Some of them are leaders in their field. Of course there are crooks that engage in the practices of shilling and worse. </p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps I took Mike`s statements too literally. Ebay can be a minefield to the uninformed. I have pointed out ebay`s shortcomings in these forums, and elsewhere. It is perhaps the fact that I know Mike is a numismatic journalist that I disagree with the statements that he made about ebay sellers. Unless he gets an editorial column, I don`t believe he could make statements like that in <i>The Numismatist</i> . I would hope he will clarify his remarks. I realize what we type here doesn`t always come out like we intend. I am as guilty as anyone of this, at times. </p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
