Power Seller....Counterfeits of Course
Seller ID "atochajewelry" currently has over 800 auctions running with the
majority of the coins certified. However, just about every BU raw gold coin being sold is an admitted counterfeit. They also have a few auctions for Trade Dollars "struck in Orient" I reported the 16 auctions listed below and wrote the seller informing him what he was doing not only violated eBay rules, but Federal Law as well. I also warned him I would check back in a couple of days and if the auctions were still running my next step would be to contact the Secret Service. I still find it hard to understand why eBay can't do a simple daily search of titles and descriptions for the word "counterfeit" to catch the obvious. While they wouldn't have caught the aucions for the Trade Dollars,they would have caught the fake gold. Here are the ones I found (may have missed a few): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932226831 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932226834 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932227867 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932228416 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932229744 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360112 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360121 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360147 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360366 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360373 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360403 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360562 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360592 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360604 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360612 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3932360632 ++++++++++ Phil DeMayo - always here for my fellow Stooge When bidding online always sit on your helmet Just say NO to counterfeits |

I did the same last week and eBay did nothing.
Interesting article in CoinWorld this week that basically says that eBay is more lenient with PowerSellers and questions if the new ANA watch group on eBay is really effective.

The fact that the ANA and ebaY have done absolutely nothing to pull the
auction is proof positive that money talks Cripes I nearly had an auction pulled recently for having a paypal logo on it, but not accepting credit cards, but some "powerseller" can rip off people for thousands of dollars, and the ANA and ebaY blow it off. Go figure. Dave -- emails to (myuserid).at.lycos.com Tir nam Beann, nan Gleann, s'nan Gaisgeach - Saor Alba A-Nis! "Barry" wrote in message ... That was a quote from me!

Dave will remember that I had about 4 auctions for 1960's model cars
cancelled because I had in my listing the information that if paying by a non UK cheques extra would have to be added to cover UK bank charges for processing a foreign cheque. Now in my listings I have a note saying that anyone that will pay by non UK cheque should email before bidding so that I can then tell them about the extra that will have to be added.

I have had dealings with Buddy.
I bought a 1931 s ms 64 red from him.... he took my money and lost the coin. I suspected he sold the coin for a better price and played dumb. When I questioned him on it his reply was " I sell a million dollars worth of coins a year why would I do that?" He did promptly refund my money so I can't say anything too bad. I just thought it was strange that I didn't have to sign any USPS insurance form so he could get his money back.We're not talking a few bucks here. I am very suspicious of him from that day on. oh well Jan "Phil DeMayo" wrote in message ...
