I bought some coins this week via the e-bay site and 4 different people. Much trust
required to send a $150 to someone you don't know. One fellow had no track record so I
didn't bid.


This is my largest complaint.

Regarding prices, here's an example of let the buyer beware: Bid item 1858 Indian Penny
uncirculated: Advertised as the second of a hoard purchased in the 70's to be auctioned.
There's an entire history around the coin which is richly told by the seller. He/she sold
one for $2505 last month, or so they said. End of the story: I found the same coin at
retail for $1575 from an on line dealer!

Imagine how the guy who paid $2505 feels.


Stupid????

Can you imagine how the guy feels that paid $311 for 1 share of Ebay?
