<p>[QUOTE=&quot;goldcollector, post: 1695737, member: 9088&quot;]I am more of a coin collector, so maybe the rules are different with paper money, but in coins any alteration needs to be disclosed.</p><p><br /></p><p>It doesnt seem right to me to buy a PMG 20 probably for $600, take it out of the holder, wash it, bleach it, trim the edges, and whatever else was done then to represent it as a &quot;near AU with no problems, razor sharp edges, etc &quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Seems that is only a step above altering a mint mark on a coin then trying to pass it off as the higher valued example.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as not researching it further, maybe I should have. This guy has 100% positive feedback over 9 years on Ebay. I guess ebay rating system doesnt mean much. Also, if you look at bid history, you will see I bid right at the end of the auction. Didnt think I would win as far worse examples were going off at $1300-$1400 or higher. When this went off at $1100, i knew I either got very lucky or there was something I was missing. So that only leaves 1 possibility, it means there was something I was missing.</p><p><br /></p><p>He messaged me back and said he was consigning it for someone else and that he didnt know. he says he will give a refund so I guess I lucked out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
