[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 2775482, member: 20480"]Followup to my first transaction on USAcoinbook . . . I bought a non-returnable better date coin with blurry photos on the assurance from the seller that I'd like the coin. Despite the images being blurry, the color looks very natural on both sides of the coin. With the coin being only $35, and me wanting to give the site a test drive, I rolled the dice and went for it. In person, the coin is naturally toned over a very old obverse cleaning. Seller seems friendly enough, and would likely take the coin back, but there's little to lose on a $35 purchase on this particular date, so I'll resell the coin as cleaned and lose less that way. I looked high and low for some sort of buyer protection on this site, and found none. I wanted to know if it exists to mitigate risk on much larger purchases. If it doesn't, I see that as an obstacle to significant growth, as the site may soon become a haven for unscrupulous sellers. - Mike[/QUOTE]
