After reading the sales terms on Numista I have found an interesting loophole that has never occurred to me before,
If somebody didn't want to adhere to these regulations and granting that they lived in a place where the same unit of money is traded eg. two people in the UK or two people in the Eurozone, could always 'trade' a coin of theirs for say (UK example) 12 £2 coins and 1 £1 coin (£25, or any other figure which they would ask for.
I am not implying this does or does not occur as this just an example of ways you could bend the rules and I know that most people who I know on Numista would not ever dream of such a thing.

I'm sure somebody out of the 83577 current members would.
Thank you for your time, have you ever saw any such loopholes?

That would essentially be selling a coin, no? As a private transaction of product and cash between two individuals I'm sure it's happened many dozens if not hundreds of times between members via PMs.
Or if you mean "selling" on Numista by swapping circulating (e.g £1 and £2 coins) for "numismatic" coins (e.g. a Victorian florin) then yeah, it is a loophole that could be used to "sell" on Numista.... although I'm sure just like with normal swapping you wouldn't (or shouldn't, anyway) do it with a member you aren't 100% certain isn't a fraud.
