Last year I won a coin Lot on "that sight whose name begins with an e and ends with a y".
I live in London, the seller was based in Swansea, Wales.
The coins were to be sent by Recorded Delivery.
After waiting two weeks, the coins had not arrived.
Finally the seller replied to my request for a tracking number, which ought to be supplied when a package is sent Recorded.
The seller stated that they could not find the receipt and that they had "just moved house" and it must have got lost in the commotion of moving.
They were miffed that they had to refund me.
On Sunday I won a Lot of four coins, the seller had more auctions going on until yesterday, I won one more coin then.
I sent a message to the seller if it could be posted with the four I had already won.
The seller replied that if the auctions of the coins had ended days before, they would have already been posted.
So, thinking they were in the post, I went ahead and paid of for the coin, to be sent on its own.
I explained that as the four coins were not Marked As Dispatched I thought they were being held until the final auction.
The seller replied that " I am sorry I didnt put they were dispatch but iam moving house and I have been so busy"
This reminded me of my previous experience, and I now wonder if I will see these coins.

So, I wonder, is "moving house" a form of Jargon dodgy e**y sellers use?
Because, who the heck would arrange an auction of high end coins whilst moving house, to, I guess, a different locality, and so no idea about the postal services in a new locality?
Has any other members come across such obtuse and vague phraseology used by a seller either directly to them or in a listing?
Should we create a list, to serve as an eduction for would be/newbie buyers?
Here is my two contributions:
1) Moving House = a)I could not give a Fig about providing you with the tracking information on the coins, the receipt has gone in the bin along with the Lottery Tickets I bought.
b) The coins did not sell at a price I liked, and so will not send them to you. I will Fob you off about how I am "moving house", you will not buy from me again, and a few months down the line I will relist the coins and am sure I will get more money for them.
2) What You See Is What You Get = I think, in fact I am sure this coin is fake, but I do not care about rules and hope someone will buy it off me. I do not expect to have to refund you if it turns out you realise it is a fake.
P.S. to members outside of Blighty (the UK) Dodgy = Very Dubious
