Fake seller- bul_fishing_1981
« on: May 26, 2017, 03:06:51 PM »
another fake seller from the UK with lots of fakes including Byzantine and Germanic kingdom.

Maybe he uses really dark pictures so that the coins don't look as fake.

I believe this guy also uses shill bidding. This terrible fake just sold for $320 and had 25 bids. Of course, I may be underestimating the average eBayer, and perhaps this fake is not so obvious?

Yersterday I was wondering where I have previously seen the coin below. And now, I believe it can be one of his other account as some details match (e.g., coins for sale, shipping fees, private listing,...).

Yes, I actually added trinvestment to the fake seller's yesterday and was wondering the same thing, if it was the same seller.
