I occasionally see auctions where a seller claims to reserve the right to end the auction early. To me this signals that a particular item also being advertised for sale outside of eBay. Ebay doesn't seem to have a problem with that. Ebay has no exclusive claim on an item's disposition while it is available on eBay. Otherwise, it probably would lose half of the retail dealers who use eBay as an optional sales tool. This sounds like all Will is doing. |

Nope...from their selling policies You're not allowed to: - List an item that may be out of stock at the time of purchase. - List an item that you're simultaneously selling outside of eBay. - Offer an item that may not be what's delivered to the buyer. I remember checking this a while back when Goldsborough was auctioning off some of his miniatures and reproductions (crap) while listing them for sale at his website. |

I see this caveat most often in eBay car auctions. Maybe there are special rules for that category, but I've seen it with others, too, and eBay has apparently let it ride. Otherwise, why would a dealer tie up an item in a 30+ day eBay auction if doing that would eliminate the possibility of selling it outside? As long as eBay still allows a seller the option to end an ongoing auction, how could eBay ever determine why the seller ended it? Item damaged, lost, stolen, sold? |

Oops! Dog ate my silver three cent piece. Shoulda got it slabbed. On the other hand, I have had several offers of a fixed price if I would end an auction early, but like you I didn't feel it was cricket to do so. |

I remember checking this a while back when Goldsborough was auctioning off some of his miniatures and reproductions (crap) while listing them for sale at his website. I'll take the bait. It's been a while. Crack collector Phil DeMayo recently left two more brilliantly insightful posts, the above mentioning my name. I'll address it. Any halfway savvy person who has been around the collecting of anything knows how subjective collecting is. What any given person considers collectable is collectable. Saying what someone or what some other people collect is not collectable, is junk, is crap, etc., etc. shows you don't understand collecting, or that you do but are ornery and just looking to vent some kind of frustration you're experiencing. Above, the crack collector says that the 12-piece set of Saint replicas I have is "crap." I earlier thought I'd try to sell this set but changed my mind, realizing I really like it. The pieces I could find information about are made by or for the American Historic Society, the Rhodes Commemorative Society, Jake's Marketplace (a well-respected coin supply dealer), and five private mints, most with good reputations, one with a fairly notorious reputation for misleading advertising (among other things, not directly indicating its replicas are replicas or copies but instead calling them clad proofs, etc.), though its pricing is very much within the range of other replica makers and the quality of its work, ironically, is superb. One of my Saint replicas is a monster piece 3-1/2 in. in diameter made by another private mint, the Washington Mint, consisting of gold-plated.999 silver, worth today a considerable amount more in its bullion value alone than what I paid, though I didn't buy it for its bullion value. Two of the Saint replica miniatures I have are solid gold, one 24k, another 8k. Another piece, recently issued, is a 40mm-diameter .999 copper round based on the Saint design, an interesting commentary on changing perceptions of this base metal, a piece that's also skillfully made and remarkably inexpensive for what you get. Each of these 12 replicas are originally engraved, none made with cast dies that are based on the original Saint-Gaudens double eagles or the more recent U.S. Mint American Gold Eagle bullion coins, which themselves are copies that commemorate and celebrate the original design. Many consider the original design to be among the most beautiful in the history of coinage. Each of these replicas is therefore not just a copy of the original but also an interpretation of it. Paying attention to such details, perceiving these differences, is not only interesting it itself but also helps you appreciate the original design, which though masterful does have its own subtle quirks, which an analysis like this highlights. All part of the fun, which for me also includes collecting original Saints and American Gold Eagles. With the originals, I've focused solely on the 1908 No Motto, and I've incrementally upgraded over the years, all raw unslabbed coins, paying close attention, and learning how to pay close attention, to the minute, fascinating differences with this particular coin type (as with others) that distinguish one uncirculated number grade from another. My first was a 61 (my grade), then I bought a 62 and made money selling the 61, then did the same with a 63, then the same with a 64, all purchased from reputable dealers. I may have the 64, or what I think is a 64 slabbed at some point. I call it a 63 at my Web site, being conservative about it, perhaps too conservative, perhaps not. It could go either 63 or 64, though what I wouldn't do, if I had it slabbed, is have it slabbed more than once to keep trying for the higher grade -- slabbing company games that just benefit their balance sheet. I don't currently feel a desire to further upgrade this 64/63, having moved on to other stuff. But it's still delightful to pull out this 1908 No Motto Saint from the safe deposit box now and again and marvel at it, glom on it for all its beauty and history and metallurgical lure. -- Consumer: http://rg.ancients.info/guide Connoisseur: http://rg.ancients.info/glom Counterfeit: http://rg.ancients.info/bogos |
