Dave

I have reported it.

Who are the shillers

Why are you selling such nice stuff on Ebay.Surely a reserve and a London auction would do better.

It's difficult to be certain, but you'd have to ask yourself what is the reason for bidding like that when there is still more than a day left on the auction.

You could easily have got much more than £400 for that one, Dave. Didn't realise that was you when I saw the seller, as I thought you were in Germany.

A lustrous one went for £900 at London Auctions in September 2010.

The other one was running well ahead on "bids" even before yours had sold, despite the fact that yours is a demonstrably superior grade, with lustre. Yep, something wrong there. It's patently obvious.

Your coin shows up the problem in stark relief. I'm amazed they didn't pull the other one immediately, and wait.

I started a small shop Mike with my buddy, it seemed more logical for me to send the coins to him other than from Germany as i believe that buyers when they see where a coin comes from they tend not to bid or buy as well as if it were in the UK

So now i send all the coins to him, i do the listings etc and he ships the coins out, usually within 24hrs of payment.........I ask for paymnet within 3 days, keeps things turning over quicker, so i hope this buyer does also or else i relist.

Lol, i won't do that Peter, eventually people will waken up to what they BOTH do. The info on him is around the internet, a lot of people know what they do, so if they want to keep getting burnt then it's up to them.

With his UNC grading, he's obviously going to try for top end price. Lets sit back and see where it goes.Any bets on price? I'm going for 4 figures at least

Nice one

I've reported that coin as well, Dave, under the relevant category. Just a pity they don't let you leave any free text.

You were right all along, and this has convinced me.

It's also interesting that this account is not a business account, but that is clearly what they are doing. eBay are usually pretty smart at making the link between connected accounts.

Ebay turn a blind eye when it comes to them making money.........Anyone got an Eimer book, looking for a typical price for Ei. 221 in EF (Charles II Coronation Medal by Thomas Simon) Ta

I had a separate account under my 16 year old daughters name(she was the selling arm of Peter Global Enterprises LTD)

The account was linked to Mrs Peters card and bank account.

Ebay told me to close the account because she was under 18.I mentioned she was old enough to be married and considerably brighter than

the flock of numpties at Ebay.

Only 14 months to go...but hey my family allowance

Very probably. Just as a matter of interest, would the details on the relevant e bay page change if that were the case ?

If so, it might be worth keeping an eye on it.

I don't think that the page is updated in that case. The only way is to wait to see who leaves feedback for that item, although sonofcork doesn't leave feedback for Mr P - so you'll have to draw your own conclusion.
