    Reported and the seller has been contacted.

    Bob, could you please PM me? I can get counterfeits removed but there are procedures that I have to follow. I won't be able to post here if it interferes with procedure. I can explain more in PM.

    Thank You,   Ed

  2. NGC is having a special that ends tomorrow. This would be a good idea if you are planning on getting any graded. Save almost 50% on associate membership.

  3. My first question would be, what do you intend on doing with them? If you are going to sell them, where? If Ebay, I don't find it worthwhile to TPG anything with a value under 200$ 

    Are you going to keep them? If so, I would only TPG the very highest value ones. 

    I would look around for a local coin shop that is a authorized NGC/PCGS dealer. They should have advice and opinions.  My LCS went over my top 30 coins, gave me advice on which to submit and sent them in for me at very little extra cost. 

    Chances are that you can sell them away from ebay easily by offering 10% less than they would go for on Ebay.  

    How familiar are you with grading or coins in general? 

    I would be sure to not touch any with bare hands, post some pictures as Mark said and see what others think. 

  4. Since i posted that name 19 hours ago, that seller had 4 items removed by ebay and will have another 9 removed tomorrow morning, 4 of which are reposts of the 4 from yesterday. 

    From now on, I will post the seller name as a title and a link to their items as the body. Posting pictures is too cumbersome as I have to download them and resize. Kinks to the items won't last 24 hrs as they get removed.

    Often I just go for the items that are easy for me to prove counterfeit. I'm sure there are other counterfeits and other people that can prove them as such with grater ease that I can.

  5. Should I just keep editing a single post of counterfeit ebay sellers or make a new comment for each? I have a ton of them but won't put a seller that has one fake occasionally or has questionable items. Only  the ones that are attempting to defraud with provable counterfeits. 

    Ebay sellers of counterfeits:

    I know we all know not to buy a $5 Morgan from China, but I thought you may enjoy this seller's inventory pic.
