Ebay's Worst Offerings

[Paulus 1,942]

This batch has taken longer than previous ones, SC says complete on Friday (although I hadn't chased) which would be 65 days ... well within their 90 but I used to get 35. My batch of 7 has been at the 'finalising' stage for 3 weeks, pending attribution should come before that, do you mean 'pending encapsulation'?

Have they assigned a UIN to your coin yet, and if so, what is it?

[azda 973]

There's a UIN but its not searchable. It says attribution pending. Isthis because its a variwty? I've no idea

What's the UIN Dave? Let me know, I will PM you with what I know of their process

I emailed globecoins and he said that the seller of the 1st coin from Bulgaria had stolen the picture, he reported to ebay and they die nothing about it. Nothing new there then

Bought from the London Mint Office. Need I say more?

Haha... 261877567523

Not only is the price silly, but the description says "..Stunning!" AND the condition is down as, "It looks like beautiful oak furniture".. OK..

Amusing guidance post on the eBay web site!

Not sure if it's accurate, or out-of-date, since their rules seem to constantly change. Can't see a disclaimer stating that the content does not reflect the views of eBay themselves, but it contains advice such as 'never bid until there is less than an hour to go'!

He does sign off with.. "The world is full of retards. Beware!"

He did warn you..

[azda 973]

Seriously, am I missing something here? This coin was sold at Lockdales along with 1 other in the same lot for £75

What they usually Do is scan the book and see a high price for a rarity and hey presto its a rarity, but Pity help you if you try and correct them because all of a sudden you know fcuk all and they've become instant dealers.

Ebay is good for that
