[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1533479, member: 112"]But - you do not know for a fact that that is what happened. As has been repeatedly pointed out, the seller may not have known the coin was whizzed.

What you are suggesting would be great - IF - you could [U]prove[/U] that the seller intentionally sold a problem coin as a problem free coin. But you can't prove it. Based on the information you have given us you can't even prove that it is the same coin. I'm not saying I don't believe you that it is the same coin Owle, I'm saying you can't prove it is. No more than you can prove that he intentionally sold you a problem coin. And that gives the seller a built in defense. When you buy raw coins, in hand, then by default you accept what you get.
