Quote: I cant imagine UAE being much different to Europe where airmail to the US is stated as a week There might be some added steps through customs.  I might also check with your post office. For some inexplicable reason, my carrier hasn't deliver several overseas packages--I had to go to the PO to claim them.

Quote: I just checked again and now he says it takes two months to the United States Gee, that is so convenient for him! So if items never arrive after the two months the buyer can't open a case.

That's what I figured. Another reason why I won't be dealing with the guy again. Disappointing since there are a few more coins that I wanted from his shop.

Quote: There might be some added steps through customs Possibly, not a country I've dealt with much tbh, never received but posted to it a couple of times without problem. Small items like jiffy bags with low stated values should not be stalled at customs that long, its the bigger more valuable stuff that seems to get stuck. Its certainly not infrastructure, UAE is a very rich country with lots of services.

I'm TOTALLY SHOCKED! The coins arrived today! Not sure what happened and why it took so long but they are here. They are nice coins for the price. I will be posting about them later. Of course I'm not going to be filing a claim. lol

Glad they arrived! - I'd still want my postage money back from the seller after this length of time but hey, maybe its not worth the trouble.
Still a seller to avoid in the future I think.

While browsing on Vcoins I decided to check out that dealer's store (I wasn't going to buy anything of course), but the store isn't there anymore. I wonder if it had anything to do with this, or is it just a coincidence?

Nothing to do with me since I never filed the complaint. Once I had the coins, I let it be. That's all I really wanted was the coins.
One of our final communications was that he got ripped out of four packages for about $1200. He told me that he was thinking about quitting selling to US buyers.
