Ok I love everything about our founding fathers and the constitution, so when I stumbled across this coin I said I have to have it!!!! What are your thoughts!!! For example, since I heard bad things about ebay, can this person be trusted. He does say its a stock photo and has the pcgs # blurred out, saying you will receive one graded by pcgs with your very own yada yada yada.......Any thoughts or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated....... http://cgi.ebay.com/1987-S-CONSTITU...mQQptZCoins_US_Individual?hash=item53dfa4e1cc Thanks guys for your time and appreciation!!!!
mmmmm, no. Even though it is a stock photo and etc etc. I don't buy coins I don't see, slabbed or not.
I wouldn't worry to much. His feedback is 100% and look at his sales over 55K. Who has the time to take a photo of every slab?
Personally, I love the coin's design. These coins are freely available anywhere. Virtually all are PR69 DCAM... super high quality. In cases where coins are mass-produced and are all the same, it's common practice on E-Bay to have a "stock photo". It just doesn't make sense for the seller to photo each and every one when they're all the same. This seller has 55,000+ transactions and offers a 7-day return policy. I see no red lights. If you're not comfortable with all that, buy one at a shop or a coin show. Personally, I prefer them in original mint packaging rather than a slab.
Looks perfectly ok to me, the only real complaints were a few neutrals (8) saying the packing was a bit poor and a item was out of stock! and one guy who had a beef and left 10 negs! From a personal point of view if his International shipping was better priced I would be tempted to bid on a few of his items myself
Puppy in the window Not many folks here that remember the old song "How Much is that Puppy in the window" are there? I say go for it. You already love it, just be careful not to be foolish in your bidding. Set a top bid and stick to it. There will be others.
My Bad My bad. You are right. "How much for that Doggy in the Window?" was the song name. I was just thinking he might have "Puppy Love" for the auction and overextend his bidding secondary to devotion for a desired coin. The seller looks trustworthy and if such is not the case, he can return it.
Auchey 15, As a newbie myself here, but not to EBay, my first and foremost consideration is the return policy. "No Return..." means I do not bid! Next is feedback - always taken with a grain of salt! This seller has a return policy and a feedback history. And for me personally, I like OGP. If you have an OGP and want a TPG slab... this is worth investigating. just my p.o.v.
