Ebay protection of a powerseller?
The following lot on ebay is very blunt about the activities of a
powerseller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=22067024 11 The seller, yuri, actually posted two lots for sale, the other (2 206 468 954) being a fake Russian 1914 Gangut commemorative rouble. It has been pulled,possibly because the powerseller did not care for the material presented. One wonders how long the other will last. Both lots offered by yuri were stopped early (and not sold) though what this means is not clear. It is perhaps worth noting that yuri accuses cheif47 of selling him a fake item outside ebay, which I thought was against ebay rules. Perhaps such rules to not apply to powersellers. RW Julian Note: as the Gangut rouble item has been pulled, the text is worth repeating: Title of item: Fake Russian Gangut Ruble 1914. Silver 20g. Seller: yuri Starts: Nov-25-03 21:00:30 PST Ends: Nov-30-03 21:00:30 PST Price: Starts at $50.00 To bid on the item, go to: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2206468954 Item Description: This is a FAKE silver coin that was offered me in direct sale after a couple of E-bay auctions by K. Loughmiller (Cheif47) who offered it as an OLD coin. After receing coin I found that it is a fake - easy visible under 10-12 power stereo microscope, and since seller is not responding on on e-mails, I decide to auction it. Also were offered a few more fakes includung: Poltina 1726 (listed as a Ruble on e-bay now) , Poltina 1727, Ruble 1827, Ruble 1845 and others. In reality this Gangut Ruble is a sample of modern "high-tech" technology (molding) from Eastern Europe, it could be interesting to fake coin collectors. |

Yuri, unfortunately, apparently wasn't aware of the risk of buying from
eBay sellers who run private auctions in which the seller's feedback and/or bidders IDs are kept hidden. |

Both lots offered by yuri were stopped early (and not sold) though what this means is not clear. It says the seller stopped them and gave his reason. if eBay put the halt to them, they would just not appear as a listing anymore. It is perhaps worth noting that yuri accuses cheif47 of selling him a fake item outside ebay, which I thought was against ebay rules. Perhaps such rules to not apply to powersellers. Powersellers have a much wider lattitude to abuse the rules than mere mortals its true, but ebay seems to take little or no notice of anything unless it threatens their fees.
