Roll hunters are some of the worst as far as people that have a sense of entitlement. There are some people here that pick up ten boxes at a time and feel they should get this for free. Probably some major OCD going on. The ones that go through thousands of dollars, box after box, are the ones that have destroyed it. Hells bells, on ebay they have penny bullion sellers that sell thousands of pounds and those guys probably feel they should get their pennies for free too.

I've never heard of banks charging a fee if you want a roll or two. That doesn't seem right. However the comments in this thread are true. I've never had to pay over face if I ask for a roll or two, but I never ask for a lot at one time.

There are some roll hunters that have abused this and everyone is starting to pay for it. Some people don't know what moderation means. They think they've discovered a get rich scheme and are trying to get something for nothing.

Banks are fee crazy. Some banks feel like they deserve to make billions in profits for whatever reason and they're soaking the public for their stockholders. It's pure greed. It's understandable why some banks don't want to go the extra route for a non-customer tho. I've dealt with friendly and unfriendly tellers when asking for certain coins but that may be just a matter of what kind of person they are.

Like others have said, non-fee roll searching may be coming to an end.

Hasn't happened here in Canada yet, though my bank will now charge you to return coins [including our coinstar-type machine] if you aren't a customer.

If I asked for more than a few rolls at at a time I bet it would though, it's to do with costs, and it's understandable, although I'd rather go somewhere where I don't have to pay that.
