    I once bought 1/2 oz gold from the seller who described what design was on coins but never mentioned metal
    payed $30

    so, it all depends on seller and description

    I understand there are some people that can't afford better equipment, but eBay should have some rules for posting pictures. I always try to make as much pictures as possible, so the buyer would know how the item looks like. This looks like hiding something... :rolleyes:

    If somebody can afford a computer to get access to the Internet and use eBay they can afford a cheap camera that is more than capable of taking a half decent photo

    We have been talking about this seller over in "eBay- interesting but overpriced items".

    he is the definition of a dodgy seller.

    "Hey, trust me its good for $100. I can't really describe what it is exactly, but it's sort of like heavy and it's as good as gold, babe. So don't hesitate - buy it now! Millions of people want it. If you don't buy it right now you will lose your chance forever to own it! And don't mind the picture, my camera broke"

    WoW im really interested in buying this, good thing your a trust worthy person! i'll send you a check for $200 then you send me the thing and you can keep the change because i wont be needing it when i sell it because i'll get at least a %1000 return. My address will be with the check so you can kindly send it to me through unregistered mail :) don't worry the chances of it not arriving are minimal. Its been a pleasure doing business with you. Good day!
