With all the negative press eBay gets, I do think they deserve a little praise with the new adjustment to auctions. After many years of asking for this, they now made auction sales final! Starting May 13, 2026, buyers in the US who win auctions on eBay will no longer see an option to cancel orders.
Sellers are greatly hurt when someone just doesn't pay after an auction and eBay has always made it easy for bidders to get out of their responsibility. Now, if you bid, you must pay. If the seller allows returns, that is ok, but no longer does a seller need to cancel an auction. This is a move in the right direction and even though there are still some things to work out, its a big step forward.

  pcgsregistrycollector Thanks. I love early gold! Eventually hoping to finish an early US gold type set, which I know is quite ambitious. This particular series is one of the toughest to collect and has the most rarities of any early US series. Any type 3 capped bust G$5 is $60k+ for Au or better

I buy way too many 1878 and 1921 PL's and once in the while they pay off. That is how I got the 1921 Wide Reeds PL recently.

  ToddPollock Those wide reeds are tough to find. Any idea why they made those? It's a big difference. Like 30 reeds less or something like that

The secret service was incorporated back in the 1860's to prevent counterfeiting of US money, primarily. But when Lincoln was killed, they switched that as their primary goal. They are EASILY discovered because they are slightly larger, weigh a little less, are detected with the metal detectors both those you use to find treasure and those that tell you the composition of an object. I brought in a couple and found out this way from a pawn shop! But I also discovered that my jewelry I bought 20 years ago is 22 carat so that's OK by me. I bought bracelets, necklaces weighing over 11 OZ for the going price back in the old days: about $225 per ounce. Oh how I wish I could go back in time! I ONLY bought the silver to prove they are fake, but no one wants to touch them! They are also sold on Facebook, youtube, pop-ups on websites, etc.

Want to bet???! They are also selling 2024 silver eagles for $50 for 4 coins. They look good, even sound pretty good. But they are actually made up of 99% copper. With a very thin coat of silver. When I reported them to the Secret service, they said they weren't coin experts and can't tell if a coin is fake or not!!!

  Raycyca Wow! Yeah, you're right because I realize I posted about this same company about a year ago! That's BS they won't help. No, they aren't experts but they can hire one. This is international. This company is based in China so not a whole lot we can do here. Maybe CIA? INTER-POL? IC3? Idk.

Are they including photographs of the genuine product, not what they actually ship? If that is the actual counterfeit, I don't know what kind of profit they make after forging the box, insert, slab, and coin.

  DadsStampsAndCoins Fake coins in fake slabs are shipped. The site shows genuine products. They are making a lot because they do a lot of volume.

Amazing coin! I think that eagle might be my favorite after the Morgan reverse, and that DCAM gives it nice contrast.

  ToddPollock Had to have it. I've been after one for a while and this one looks like a nice original. Don't have it in hand yet tho. Maybe CAC. It's a fresh slab..

It's better, but there is no check box for fake , and they still let Chinese actors use US addresses.

I don't know - I also got a message from them saying buyers will now have only three CALENDAR days to report counterfeit coins (while I've been spending the last two weeks fighting with ebay over a chinese fake) My local post office has a habit of scanning stuff in wrong, so it'll track as delivered when it enters THEIR back door. Then half the time it'll take 'em another day or two to actually put it in the mailbox. Or if it's a holiday weekend, 3 to 4 days. Cases like that, the deadline will have passed before I'd even have any chance to see the coin. Other buyers who need to take their coins to someone else to validate will have whatever additional delays that poses, too - and, once those 3 days are up, apparently they're stuck with it, no matter how fake it is. It's already a nightmare trying to actually communicate with any real humans at ebay, I have no doubt 95% of my correspondence was with a temu version of ChatGPT. Utter trash.

  oldsmagnet I did say a LITTLE praise. That is definitely a valid concern . Buyers should have longer than 3 days. That's not good. I would think if you made note of it not being delivered in time it would help.
  
  I had a call into customer service the other day and it was definitely better than it used to be but their crappy help system doesn't make it easy to get someone on the phone.

  RyanG Given that tracking would show it was delivered (despite being 'not') they'd still cite that as more credible evidence than my word, I'm sure...
  
  It's been many years since I've sold anything on ebay, and I've gotten the impression they've been less and less supportive of sellers. Ebay had always been an "if you bid and win, you BOUGHT it" type of authoritarian system, and if you violated that, consequences were "real" -- I guess currently that couldn't be any farther from the truth today. 99.9% of my purchases are paid instantly, (with rare exceptions where successful bids didn't generate notifications and it takes me a few days to realize I actually won something...) so it's foreign to me to think of people buying something and then backing out for fickle reasons - but with today's supply of people... I'll say it doesn't come as much of a surprise. Although with ebay's relatively recent change, forcing payment information to get processed as the bid is placed, as opposed to after it's been won, it does seem like a problem that shouldn't really exist. I guess they gotta do their best to compete with Amazon, in the worst ways they know how.... <sigh>

Just got a message they are updating how coins are advertised, making it more transparent. Do they finally have someone working in numismatics again?
