Don’t leave bad feedback or message them with complaints, I did and they blocked me and wouldn’t except my return, auctionkings are horrible sellers

I'm surprised he didn't go further into verifying whether is legit, or a fake!?

That flip (sleeve) it came in looks like it has been used 784 times before.

Last comment - if you’ve ever tried to take pictures of coins you would know it’s very easy to make a coin look a bunch of different ways depending on the angle and lighting. A very subtle adjustment tilting the coin 5° can make the coin look amazing and perfect The difference between me and a majority of these new sellers is I look for what’s bad and I highlight what is bad I try to tell people right up front these are the problems I do not accentuate the positives as much as what’s bad (haze, spotting, rim hits, etc.). I almost never sell a raw coin as “Gem BU”, only if I’m super confident the coin will grade better than 65 at PCGS and I send them hundreds of coins a year so if I think it will grade better than 65 chances are I’ll submit it anyway unless it’s too common like a 1940s or 1950s common date Washington quarter etc . I saw a guy selling a coin as Gem AU last night. It’s gotten ridiculous Does it hurt the amount of money my coins ultimately sell for? Yes - sometimes. But in other ways it gains customers Plus savvy and more experienced coin buyers know what they’re looking for anyways

And you never sale a thing.

They sent me a Mercury that was not a GEM and Full Bands advertised. I gave them Neutral feedback and they immediately responded to offer me refund or compensate me. Tried to bully me to change my feedback. I told them I don’t want anything from them just want to provide other buyers of my experience. Then they went silent

You have a great sense of humor! And you have a new subscriber in coin solidarity.

"This flip is really jacked" ... "This thing's been old-school wired pretty hard-core in the field." Love it.

Dude, if they wire brushed the obverse they did not lose, you did.

I just recently enjoyed the AuctionKings experience, just as so many others have stated, they are a piece of work

Appreciate this video I see coins by this person all time and Morgan’s dealer and fortunately for people like you you save me two hrs pay on a wasted purchase if rather buy geoceries

wasted 95 on a morgan frpm them to plan too get it graded was a total junker. one of the reasons i buy graded only now.i dont think they swap the coin out i think it just lighting tricks.

Sorry that happened to you. That is why I am sharing my experience.

The coin is a common date. Reverse always looks better than the obverse. The coin has been dipped and whizzed. So you get what you pay for. The coin is worth 30 bucks since it has been cleaned so it's no bargin. They mosly likely have a bunch laying around that they paid 20 bucks for years ago. They have me blocked and I have them blocked on ebay. I think they suck and are not honest.

Dang, thanks for sharing. Gives me a perspective on what to do on eBay being new to selling coins.

You know you're dealing with a professional when they use "there" instead of "their".

Auctionkings use to use the Tolliver James rare coins. They hide behind their 100% satisfaction free returns guarantee banking that most won’t go through the trouble. “Best coin EVER!” 30” Black n White mirrors on a Au slider. They are a absolute joke Imo I would value that cleaned common date slider at I don’t know $30-$35 so they still banged you for $10

I have US silver coins which was dug up by treasure hunters in the Philippines,how do i sell them?most of them are morgan dollars

Not bad coin still looks great it's over a century old.

They have changed their handle several times.I bought a couple of Morgans back about 10 years ago when I didn't know any better, one was whizzed to death and the other was a very nice 78-S Morgan, but had an staple scratch right across the cheek.Never again. I wouldn't pay much over spot for them today.

Please share your experience if you have ever won an auction on Ebay with the seller "Auctionkings"

I bet you did get the right coin, it's all in the photo magic. I've bought several coins from them, and have done very well. I go in knowing that the quality is never the same as the picture, but I'd be hard pressed to do better for same price at a LCS. Definitely would never pay over $45 for there stuff, but I've managed to pick up some nice washington quarters, and couple Morgan's. Also I did return a coin with no Hassel and I'm not blocked. I didn't leave negative feedback, but they paid return shipping. They are definitely sketchy with photos, but so far everything was real.

I'v won a few good auctions for nice morgans and peace dollars and always in capsules and good packing... I've got what was in pic or if not better ..I guess maybe good luck at times ... I'm satisfied

Negative feedback is a last ditch option. It's hard on a small business. I recycle shipping supplies if they are nice enough.

I doubt AuctionKings paid more than $30-$32 for that worked over A.U. Morgan Dollar. I can't imagine a fairly knowledgable collector wanting to buy it from you for more than you paid for it.

It's a nice presentation the first thing I would check if it's real I would test the weight and the sound ping to see that you did get a good deal

I’ve bought a couple of coins from them, no problem at all.

Actionkings got us too!!! Most of their auctions are of DCAMs which do not exist in that quantity, and they use deceptive descriptions!!!

the images don't show the scratch on the reverse. you could park a mack truck in the scratch. as for the flip, no comment.

Still worth the $35. But I stay away from raw coins all together on eBay. Unless I’m 💯 that what I’m bidding on is what I’m getting. Mostly get graded ones from eBay

If the coins were as good as they look on the site, they would get them graded themselves. The buyers should know this right away.

I have bought probably 100+ coins from them what I've learned is that you have to buy the coins that have actual #10652 if it's a #k52 or whatever then it's being pulled from a sorted drawer. I went to there store front they wouldn't let me in saying it was a shipping address only in a very nice part of Scottsdale,AZ. Only way to get the actual coin photo is if it's slabbed or has a # and no letters. I also think the MS+++++ Is one sometimes two grades higher then actual coin. Just my opinions.

Called the number on the door and whoever answered the phone said they only sell online. They’d allow an appointment at the storefront if you wanted to sell something to them, but not the other way around.

Friend, they likely didn't "lose" money. That Morgan I'm convinced will be "details", if graded by the reputable grading companies...bc it's heavily cleaned. If you go to sell that Morgan...a coin dealer will give you likely under $30, w/Ag currently under $25/oz. If you place it for auction...I blv it won't go for much more than $35...if you have good photos, bc ppl will see the terrible cleaning hairlines. HERE'S THE KEY THING: THE COIN YOU SHOWED, as the one advertised...WAS NOT THE COIN YOU RECEIVED. This is, in my opinion, terrible! I blv, in fine print, there are dealers that let you know that...but also, in my opinion, any coin seller that shows a picture of the coin...and then you receive a DIFFERENT coin, is not worth doing business with.

Also. As a top rated seller myself selling fees for me are 9% on coins and around 8% on bullion PLUS my $28/month store fee. eBay also charges A FVF on shipping . So when I sell something for $100 +$5 shipping the FVF percentage is calculated on $105 not $100 Someone like them doing huge volume may get a better deal than the average Joe though One last hint - Do not just look at a sellers feedback in the top right corner on a desktop computer not the mobile app look at how many revised feedbacks the seller has that’s what you want to look for

Just my opinion but, now that you've made your educational video and had your fun, and in the process further 'outed' them (sounds like plenty of folks are already aware of how they conduct business!), return the coin for a refund or ask for a discount just to back them up a little and slow their roll.

They doctor images. I have purchased from them in the past. Was not happy with my experience. Overpaid for good clean gem bu looking coins were actually just bu with hits and scratches. Good luck!

Well, I have learned that photos and lighting can change the appearance of a coin in many ways. Too hide chatter and trouble areas. Beware of these manipulated tactics. I have been burned in the past. I enjoy purchasing coins I can hold as I buy.

Maybe the scratch came from the gnarly staple jammed into the coin when it got run over at the post office lol.

Looks good to me. I wouldn’t complain about it.

thats called a return some one did not like

I did ok with auctionkings on a 1962 D Washington quarter that is a very high mint state, though I’ve heard mostly negative things about them since then. I probably won’t buy anything else from them.

Its a nice coin but i think its obviously been cleaned proof like fields are super hoghly susceptible to the hairlines and so its a shame because it would have been a great buy if not for the likely cleaning

They remove neutral/negative feedback through loopholes. Items are misrepresented and you will not receive the coin in the photos, which they will admit, one of their experts chooses and sends a "similiar" coin. Unsure how a flawless coin could be dirty with environmental damage and hard to see some details. None of the seven coins purchased are what they were represented to be. Sad to say, but they are crooked and unethical. Buyer beware.
