<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 16130553, member: 19855&quot;]This thread is nothing other than a rant of my most recent Ebay fail. Being about an hour and a half from a dealer, I do rely heavily on Ebay for my purchases. Through the years, I would like to think I have learned how to tell a fairly good photo and I do have a process for what I would deem an acceptable photo for the sale. </p><p><br /></p><p>Enters this half dollar. I was looking for XF for this particular date and mint. The photos all seem to suggest it to be good and the pictures looked reasonable, price point was not bad, so yeah, I took a chance. When it arrived I have to say the surface is not quite right in my eye and then, if you tilt at an angle, you see that nice scratch in the field on the right of Lady Liberty. What a bummer to say the least.[ATTACH=full]1534010[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1534011[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1534012[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>And to answer the question: that is the seller&#039;s flip. I believed it to be potentially XF on purchase...$30 and not $75!</p><p><br /></p><p>What can I say? of the past 20 purchases, if I lose on 1 I guess it is not too bad. It is just the game I must play buying online. It will certainly just be a place holder for now and will be upgraded by the time the set is complete.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
