Paddy Posted November 11, 2024 Posted November 11, 2024 That link takes me to a list on Ebay, which just has two Anglo Saxon coins? Quote

Paddy Posted November 11, 2024 Posted November 11, 2024 That works now, thanks. Coin is clearly London, not Newcastle and to be fair NGC have not put a mint on it as far as I can see. I have tried to message the seller, but the Ebay messaging system does not let me enter any text except if I want to make an offer! Maybe someone else can try? Quote

Just look at this chancer's listings...! 15 years or so ago eBay used to have the 'Trusted Members Program' where reports from those members were classified differently and action often taken. Guess things change. I gave up reporting clear fakes several years ago. Total waste of my time. They ignored every single one. 2 Quote

Paddy Posted January 3, 2025 Posted January 3, 2025 This has now been taken down after I had a long message conversation with the seller through Ebay. The seller says they have a number of interesting sounding pennies that they want to share/discuss/sell and I have suggested they come to this forum as there are better experts here than anywhere else! Hopefully they turn up here soon. Quote

Paddy Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 (edited) I have forgotten who, but haven't we an Ebay executive on here somewhere now? I can't even find a mechanism for reporting fraudulent listings on Ebay anymore. Have they removed it completely? Clearly they are not at all interested in preventing fraud.

Sword Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 (edited) I have got a reply back from eBay and they said that they "didn't find the listing to be in violation of our policy". What a joke! But they will take notice once they have got more reports. Edited January 4, 2025 by Sword 1 Quote
Paddy Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 I have had one back saying "We are looking into it". Quote
Sword Posted January 4, 2025 Posted January 4, 2025 Just now, Paddy said: I have had one back saying "We are looking into it". That's the automated message. Let's see if they give a different response this time. Quote
