All I can say is... wow

Did you notice how they slipped this in: "We try our best to provide our customers with the most accurate assessment of every coin we sell. Any grading assessment or error description we provide is based on our opinion only."

basically it means they say whatever they want and they know that some information may be incorrect. Yet people still bid on it. Cant say they weren't warned that they might get scammed. I dont feel sorry for the buyer

I always feel sorry for anybody that buys a piece of junk because of caveots within the sellers descriptions.
Why? Because 1 out of 2 people who do this as a newcommer to the hobby of die varieties may just leave and never return. That's a shame and a loss for you and me.
I don't care what the buyer sells or how he words it a piece of junk coin is a piece of junk. A 1955-P Lincoln Cent struck from worn out and overpolished dies that sells for more than .35 cents because of some stupid and outdated desription that is niether a variety or an error is a theat to your hobby. That's why we should care and why we should be concerned about the buyers of this junk.
