<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBlade00, post: 1462238, member: 37468&quot;]So coin #1 arrived yesterday (from &quot;1899&quot; auction) and it is indeed an 1899-O</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]182886.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]182887.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Not too bad for $36. My guess is probably MS61, and even if it were AU it&#039;s not really a loss. However, I would say the biggest loss from this auction is the unreasonably disrespectful seller. I sent, what I thought, was a respectful message when I got the coin. I wanted to try and play dumb and act like I was expecting the 1899 in hopes maybe it was a mistake. However, things got ugly pretty quick. Here&#039;s the play by play;</p><p><br /></p><p>Me:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Seller:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Not too bad, however him not knowing why I might have thought it was a P coin was a bit rash. So I felt the need to explain to him why I MIGHT think that, in case he lists another coin similar and wants to take the (literally) 2 seconds to put the correct mint mark there in case to save in confusion. Here&#039;s my message;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>At this point I leave positive feedback. 5 stars on everything, 3 stars on the item description (meaning not correct or incorrect) along with this as feedback: &quot;Nice Coin. Fast Shipping. However it was an 1899-O and not 1899 (no mint mark)&quot;. My goal was to save future potential buyers from making a mistake and thinking a coin is one way or another. I don&#039;t feel like the feedback was malicious. The information was completely true and NOT personal. I don&#039;t feel like I attacked the seller or left a passive aggressive tone in the feedback.</p><p><br /></p><p>He sees the feedback and leaves positive feedback for me, keep in mind I paid within seconds of the buy it now. &quot;Poor buyer. Never asked mint mark and gives me low grade. ★★ buyer.....&quot; He also sends me this message;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>At which point I ripped in to him (in an non-vulgar manner of course). I can completely understand where he is coming from, but the fact that he made it personal with the feedback is beyond me. I never accused him of intentional wrong doing. I felt I was trying to be friendly and give advice as to prevent an issue in the future. Feel free to tell me I&#039;m in the wrong here, but I felt I was very reasonable with my process.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
