OK, go ahead and tell everyone how to get silver half dollars and flood the market with dumps. The more folks tell others about silver being as simple as ordering at face value, the more sorters we will get. I am a little amused that the seller would be oblivious to that:

Yeah you gotta wonder how much money he is losing between listing fees, Paypal fees, and shipping costs. All of this is being done in the name of either artificially inflating his volume so he can get Powerseller benefits, or he is trying to rebuild his feedback (I didnt read the description to see if his motivation was listed there). |
My hobby: collecting real money 1 copper cent or nickel at a time.

| Yep, I just did a back-of-the envelope calculation on his numbers. If you figure he needs to dump 800 halves (optimistic), that is 160 separate mailings. The Ebay costs would be over $40 right off the bat, and even if he could mail the halves for cheap, you still are looking at $200 at least to start for the overhead. Something does not add up that he is trying to spread the coins all around. |

I had this guy in my ebay blacklist (ignore auctions for this guy) for the past year or more.
He's trying to pump up his' feedback ratings ( IMO ) - 97.7 feedback with 288 negative in the last 12 months.
The 97.7 feedback makes his' auctions un-guaranteed, and is costing him big in powerseller world. |

I'm enjoying reading the negative feedback from his buyers, like this one on Sept. 24:
My check was cashed for $5,000, no product shipped, hanging up phone on me!--Who's the bigger idiot, this guy for sending a check for $5K, or the seller for cashing it?
And this one on Sept. 13:
seller sent lower quality coin than described because i won with his opening bid (paranoid, aren't we?}
Anyone notice how many time gtoracers747 posted the comment "nice set but very slow shipping"? I mean, come on, if the shipping sucked that bad, why'd he order 40 or so different sets from this guy??
And canon47 just posted the comment "OK" at least 50 times.
Then there was this by keithmoller on Aug. 24:
mike plays petty games, had unbelievable amount of neg.emails from ebay members
Reply by mikescoins1: This guy is the king of petty games. Look at his feedback left.
And I'd keep on scrolling back, but I really need to get some sleep. Catch y'all on the obverse side later...

Hi all-
Hey, I've got a great idea for an auction with this guy!
"VALUABLE CRUMPLED COIN WRAPPERS FOR SALE"
-For sale are valuable crumpled up coin wrappers. I go to the bank, get coins, take all the coins out of the wrappers to save you time, crumple them up to save space, and send you these valuable, colorful wrappers for a mere $25 per 100 wrappers!!-
Think I'd get any bids???
lol

Only when they CAN'T have it, ......THEN they'll want it.
I love Cents. If you get an UNC box, you win. If you get a regular circ. box, you win. If you get a zinc box, you don't lose....so you still win. |
