    Re: More feebay scams?

    Not a scam. Of course whoever bought these is a sucker, but the sellers aren't doing anything unethical that I can see.


    Smaller lots sell well, I guess! I might have to try to sell some small lots and see what happens! Maybe I can sell a lot of five of the same date....

    It says they are 40%? I thought they have to be a "S" to be 40%?

    Re: More feebay scams?

    The seller relisted the same 3 coins. This time without stating that they are 40% silver - which they are not.

    Not 40% silver, they came in blue pack and red pack, encased in cello. Olus the rest where proofs in GSA holders. I don't think the seller knew what they were selling.

    Re: More feebay scams?

    I agree with CoinHELP; I've seen people list quarters and dimes made as late as the mid-1970's as "silver". (no not talking about 1976 quarters, some of which are 40%). They just don't bother to verify what they think they know about the coin(s).

    I try to PM people on eBay when they have something listed incorrectly to the point of misrepresenting it hoping to save them some hassle. Most responses are very positive especially for smaller sellers. Oddly, the only times I've been told where to go are from sellers calling themselves coin dealers who should know better.
