Anyone buying any old coins on ebay needs to have their head examined and be put into residential care.. with no sharp objects near by..
Marcus Aurelius Denarius… £50… and is looks perfect… (like silly perfect) actual price from any dealer… £260… Go figure???
I contacted one seller who said his coins were guaranteed authentic… I asked him how… and he told me I get a receipt with them with ‘Ebay’ printed on it!!!! Yup.. for sure and eBay receipt is the best way to show no con has occurred!...But wait… eBay do not issue receipts.
eBay is a great site but it has long been a sanctuary for fraudsters and liars and if you are going to use it… try to use some common sense. Traders hiding their identity as private to Chinese sellers pretending products are in the U… but take 15 days to arrive!!!
My advice to buyers: Only buy on eBay from reputable sellers.. It is easy to check.. ALWAYS check if a seller is pretending to be private ( just look at the things they sell, how many and so on). Do NOT look to eBay for help… They actually define a trader as someone selling over 90k of goods ( they mix trader with VAT paying Trader… They serious just do not care).
eBay is like hot water… use it carefully and it is great, be careless and you will get burnt.
