Or better still put in a huge bid, he said in a reply to Peck that it was to late to chnage it, so a high bid and don't follow through with the transaction and inform him he can now relist with the correct Information simples

An element of deduction My dear Dr Watson. The user has bought from him before. I checked the high bidder initials and score, it was 56 when i was checking, it then changed to 57 so it had to be one and the same. The hidden names initials in the bidders list fit the ebay name along with score after trawling through his FB

No s**t Sherlock, that's clever! You could've been John's Jam Sandwich partner, and talked coins all day long!

That's a £50+ piece of pewter now, with 3hrs still to go! Might make a nice VF price!

You got a special crash-n-burn account I take it?

I have My German one, but when i win it i'll drop him a wee line telling him i dislike pewter and ask if he likes cherries.

In this case he has been told several days in advance that the coin was fake and yet he sent Peck an Email today saying he can't unfortunately change it. Lets see if he'll change it before i send a cherry. He has the option, his way or mine

Could be an interesting conclusion to the thread! Ask him if he wants mine for a fiver, that is when you strike up a 'conversation' with him?

So he's still bullshitting the sale, then! It's not even like the whole things got a little bit out of control and he doesn't quite know what to do...he's still wilfully winding punters in!

He who lives by the sword, and all that!

How do you know the number of watchers, Sherlock?

I actually got a polite, but rather incoherent reply, to the effect it was too late to change the listing with only 12 hours to go!!!

it's just occurred to me, I think it's only the title you can't change in the latter stages, you can update the description at any time, if I'm not mistaken?

mislabelled slabbed 1897 penny BIN at £587.13!!! Edited August 24, 2012 by davidrj

Perhaps you shouldn't bring him to the forum, Azda! I still can't believe there was an underbid of £80! Unbelievable!

Possibly, but he's going to have to relist it because i won it. Just waiting on him emailing me for payment then i'll let him know (he already does) that its pewter, but wondering if HE will tell me this first as a good ebay seller

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Could'nt wait, so i've emailed him

Hello, been waiting for you to contact me about this coin. Was actually wanting to see if you were an honest seller or not, and it seems not.

Reason being is that i know you had several emails during this auction telling you that this coin was made of pewter, yet you've failed to tell me this so far and you also failed to update your auction stating this, and that can only be for one reason, you wanted it sold as original.

There is a very good British coin forum which i'm a member of and your coin was pointed out on that forum, your wording in the auction does'nt really wash either as you've sold coins and sell a few coins and you certainly knew the date, but your WHAT IS IT quote was really quite amusing.

So, what we can do is either you sell it as a pewter fake (as you know it is) and i can forget feedback, or you can try again selling as the real deal and i can leave a nice feedback.

P.s the forum name is predecimal.com/forum look under free for all then under ebay laughs.

Not exactly an ebay listing, since it was in one of those banner adverts at the side.

On the face of it, it looks like a coin, but it's not terribly well done and it's a ridiculous price. Do you think we should warn people about these things? It might avoid a lot of disappointment a few years from now ...

That'll be giant hula hoop eating and mile-high parachuting, surely? Unless the first is extreme ironing?
