<p>[QUOTE="huntsman53, post: 287116, member: 1242"]Thanks for the responses so far and any that will be forthcoming! The main reason that I posted this Thread was to make everyone aware of such Auctions that may look like a deal of a lifetime to some Bidder/Buyers. I think that this Seller has stumbled into a vaque area where there is no return. If you have a super Feedback rating and are honest in your dealings with any and all Buyers, then I think that you should never stoop to adding questionable items to boost the sales of lesser valued coins and or tokens. I also believe that this Seller has a good idea that the questionable items, are in fact fakes. Otherwise, this Seller would have sent in a small handfull of the coins or tokens for authentication. No one in their right mind, would sacrifice coins or tokens that may be worth thousands of dollars each just to boost the sales of a bunch of low valued coins and/or tokens. I am afraid that this Seller has fell into the same racket as many other Sellers of coins and tokens on eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>I seldom bid on anything that has "Estate" attached to it's Title as I have found from experience, that most Estate items are not Estate items at all. Also, I definitely do not bid on any auctions that have "Huge Estate" in the Title, show pictures and describe what you might get in the auction but what you are getting is a 1/4 or 1/2 pound of coins.
