<p>[QUOTE="Collector1966, post: 1086694, member: 17919"]I think the problem with ebay is that oftentimes you don't know who you're buying from or selling to. I know someone who sells rolls on the bay and loves it because it he can get better than dealer prices for them. I also know a dealer here in Japan who has had mixed results selling coins on the bay, with good prices realized for common foreign silver but running into the occasional deadbeat, including one who cheated him out of several hundred dollars. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, if you're selling to or buying from overseas, it might be more difficult to resolve problems. For example, there is a flood of fake coins coming out of China, and some coin sites advise ebay users never to buy coins from a seller from China, Hong Kong or Macao. If you get stuck with one of these fakes, it is almost impossible to get your money back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
