So I was in Ebay and I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-gram-gold-bullion-bar-999-9-fine-gold-/171099215681 I know that a gram of gold goes for way more, but this is a top rated seller. Is this a real offer or not?
Yes, it's a real offer. The question should be, is the offer worth your attention? No one, perhaps not even the seller, can verify that what the offer claims is what you'd receive (it may not be gold).Chris2284 said:So I was in Ebay and I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-gram-gold-bullion-bar-999-9-fine-gold-/171099215681 I know that a gram of gold goes for way more, but this is a top rated seller.

Under virtually all circumstances, I'd agree with you---but I've witnessed a piece of Gallé art glass sell for well under $100 (on ebay), so, while uncommon, it does happen. The piece in question would have had a market value of at least $300.heliman4141 said:Just thought id mention,
I looked over the bid and saw nothing odd at all. I buy & sell on Ebay all the time & it is not unusual for a dealer or seller to start a placement add with a low .99 start bid. I do it myself all the time. Its fun watching the bidding start early, if the bullion add is placed close to what one wants to begin with then it won't capture the buyers attention as its hopeless to get a real deal obviously. They do this knowing it is not going to sell under spot price, no way.
