Anyway it has nothing to do with silver. It could have been about anything brought on the internet.
People buy an empty PS5 box on ebay for £300+ that is listed as an empty box. Ok clearly listed to try and fool people who will just look at a photo.
Then there are people who see a listing for a phone charger for £4.99 with the picture showing a photo of a £1000 phone the lead is for then complain the phone was missing.
I have been looking for a coin display box and many of the listings show coins in the box. Do i expect to get a gold coin for £10? 
No i would not berate a toddler who is learning to walk but i would sure as hell shout some nasty language at my 31 year old son if i caught him pouring a boiling kettle of water over his head and stabbing himself in the eye with a steak knife.

If you brought a fake rolex for £20 would you think you have been scammed because it looks like a rolex?
You did not buy a fake, you brought a copy.
Few people will buy them to brag to mates but most who would buy these would do so to sell on as real 1 oz bars.
I would not put this down to a mistake by someone who is new to silver. You knew it was way cheaper than it should have been, did no research and still paid a few hundred pounds. The mistake is down to being an idiot.
Every week you hear stories of people being scammed to move their cash from their account to another account and even told to withdraw cash and buy vouchers and pass on the numbers to the people on the other end of the phone which this last year has been the so called tax office. 
Im sorry if i sound hard but ive had enough of these stupid stories. Its about time people took responsibility for their own stupid actions.
If you cant be bothered to even read a simple advert before spending that sort of money then you should not have a debit card.
Please tell me you are not employed in any of the emergency services?
 

Yes i totally agree.
Scammers use these sites to buy silver plated bars and then sell on ebay as the real thing. That is the danger of these sites and if they sell on ebay as 999 silver that is a scam that will fool many people and chances are would fool me too. That is unless they put in big writing this is silver plated in the listing.

It will be a sad sad day when ebay finally comes to an end.
Millions of scammers looking for new sites for their victims.

I would have a word with Ebay to check if the seller has received your payment. I know there have been a few problems with the new managed payment system and some sellers are not keen on shipping until they have cleared payment. I may be wrong but i think the seller has to declare the item has been sent to enable the payment process to proceed.

Cut him some slack  😉 nowhere does it state it has to be a good deal, i looked after i posted my awful one the other day aha
 
 
For new members clarity, the £48.36 Silver Britannia's from BBP are a TERRIBLE price(right now) 😅

Your sarcasm was obvious to me!!

Not sure whats happened here as just finished work after getting up this morning at 4.30am and im shattered.
To clear things up i meant it was a disgusting listing by someone clearly out to take advantage of some poor soul.
I have nothing to do with the listing and would never sink that low.

Trust me im not knocking the forum the best deals around are to be found here.
What i was knocking is new members expecting to get here what they do on ebay but with no risk as its bank transfer.
No i did not buy on here at those prices and the seller brought down his price.
I have been a member here for 2 years but only a paid member from last week and have watched prices here and anything under £25 an oz is gone in seconds and i cant type fast enough to take advantage.
I did become a paid member as i was thinking of selling my silver but it has kind of not worked out  that way as i have brought another 75 ozs.
I brought most of my silver in 2019 throught silver to go so yes i paid a lot less and im not knocking what it goes for today.
If i did end up selling i would never expect to get ebay prices by selling here as there is no fee and no risk.

NO
