Quote: But I was banned from entry to that forum and unable to contact adim for 4 months.If that was done to you how would you like that? If you were banned from the forum I would think there would have been a very good reason for it, Can you tell us why you think you were banned? Badmouthing the forum just because you got banned is pretty poor form without giving us the details of WHY. All forums have rules attached to the membership and obviously you must have broken the rules and ignored any warnings from admin otherwise you wouldn't have been banned.

Thought I was doing alright at that forum and then I got onto a thread that talked about using stamps for mailing that have been through the mail but never got canceled.
Replied with a break down of kiloware(stamps on paper) and was told by a member I was trying to sell stamps on that forum you mentioned then I could no longer log on and with no explanation. This lasted about 4 months. I could not log on and was not allowed to contact the forum adim.

So we have to wait till June for any 5 coin bags to be mailed to the buyer from The Royal Mint. Those presale dealers now have an issue with the supply date being changed. Going to get some of these new coloured coins now it has this thread attached to the memory of their minting. The history of my coin purchases from The Royal Mint was an interesting look. Have not purchased a coin from them since 2014.

So much for The Royal AUSTRALIAN Mint doing something about these "Drop" Sellers on ebay.

Yes it is sad trout about the presale dealers of this coin and others. If someone in the know posted a searchable comment about the 2017 $2 lest we forget coin it could of stopped a lot of people getting ripped off. Freshly minted Australian coins do not get enough searchable comments to warn the world wide coin collecting community of The Royal Mint and dealers ways that are ripping them off in the early days of a minting. Sitting back and just laughing at the people getting ripped off by presale dealers as an example. Thank you for your support about the presale dealers on ebay trout. Why does a coin forum not allow coin collectors to search the type of information like I am talking about here? Maybe it is to much of a forum expense to do this. I just do not get it.

Just did a search and CCF is now searchable for this coins info.
Maybe you switched on Australian collectors can post rip off warnings here. Seeing that this type of info is common knowledge on that other forum as I am told. Why was the info not posted here?

Hi KG5, just so as you know, the ACF does have a public forum section, it's just a matter of getting people to post in there. I have had notification from the RAM, that my $2 coins have been shipped. Steve

When did you order your coins, Steve? I ordered mine on the very first day (21 April), and they still haven't sent them to me. I'd hate to think that people who ordered after me had their coins sent first.

Good to hear from you triggersmob! Quote: just so as you know, the ACF does have a public forum section, it's just a matter of getting people to post in there. Yes I saw that section of ACF and yes it is a bit light on with info. The big issue for me is about searching important cutting edge mint release info etc. This info seems to be at a high level on ACF but it is hidden. It seem to be only for a small amount of collectors a sellers/dealers. To me it looks like the search engines find CCF info very quickly. Members of ACF look to me to be at the cutting edge of new Australian mint releases and see there insights as..... this quote from this thread sums it up nicely. Quote: There's been a big discussion on the Australian Coin Forum, but unless you're a member of it, you'd be completely unaware of its existence. Most of us have said everything we want to say, and are ready to move on. If it was a big deal on ACF why not post something here for the Australian coin collectors on CCF and any coin collector in the world concerning searching? I do believe that the CCF forum is a very well set up one for the info here to be found very quickly by a google search. Sometimes we do not see the obvious because we are to close to the issue and this is very possibly what has happened here . I do not believe that the members in the know here have done this with intent. It is just something that happens.

I'd hate to think that people who ordered after me had their coins sent first. I saw it posted in the ACF forum on the evening of the 21st and went straight over the to RAM site and ordered them. About 5pm to 6pm western time. Then later I noticed the $1 coins were available too and went back and placed another order. Wish I'd seen them both before I ordered, would have saved some postage. No notification about the $1 coins yet. Steve

KG5, I'm more of a world collector, than Aussie coins, but I find out about new releases only by being a member of ACF, and they are really a nice bunch of guys and gals when you get to know them. :) Steve
