#1 Unread post by tjm8755 »

Sold a ms63pl on ebay for a fair price.....account that bought it was auction kings 2. Well look what I see a week later cracked out of the slab. Some marks by the B in pluribus and u in unum are identical.

Thanks for sharing, it is the same coin and he's done this before. It is fraud. Period. Do you have better images of your coin, front and back?

Thanks. I found the listing and took screens. I could tell it’s the same coin, he has more than one 1887.

I am thinking of fitting in a video.

By all means use the photos I gave. I hate stuff like this.

Thank you, video coming. I am surprised that other's haven't chimed in on this so I changed the title a bit.

Well, the idea is to have the seller of Kings 2 lose money by NOT bidding on this auction; I'd love to see that.

Bringing awareness of what they are doing hopefully does that but always good to inform people they can return as not as described in situations like this too. Force the scammer to pay for the return shipping.

I would rather they not give them business. Why would anyone when there’s reputable dealers to buy from. Returns are hassles.

This Morgan is going for more than what this AUCTION KINGS paid for it...
It looks like the 11 bidders don't visit this website to know what's going on... :(

Sadly yeah, looks like he at least didn't make any profit at what it sold at with ebay fees. Feel bad for the buyer though....
