oh my florin Pillar of the Community Australia 1006 Posts	Posted 02/25/2013 9:44 pm I just created this thread after reading some of the bad experiences that people had experienced from dealers and thought that the other side should be presented. So everyone can write about their positive experiences with dealers as well as recomend them and their business to others on ccf. I will start by recomending Tony Byrne of Byrne coins in Canberra whom I met at the last Petersham coin show. Being young I didn't expect much in the way of hospitality from any of the dealers but was pleasantly surprised by Tony Byrne who helped me pick out quality pieces for a great price and without even asking him gave me a discount.

Peter S Thomas Valued Member Australia 216 Posts	Posted 02/25/2013 10:52 pm Good idea. So when in Brisbane try Hugh at Colonial Coins and Medals in Adelaide St. (Next to Anzac square). He has always been more than willing to help a newbie like me. Report this Post to the Staff

Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 02/25/2013 11:17 pm Another +1 for Colonial Coins & Medals. I've found them to be pretty nice. I've only been to vpcoins once but they were pleasant too. Report this Post to the Staff

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 02/26/2013 7:55 pm I usually go to VPCoins as he is the closest Dealer to me and all the staff there are very friendly. The Purple Penny and Newcastle coins are always great to deal with. When I was working in the City, I used to go to Colonial Coins and Medals, but I retired in 06 and haven't been to the City since. The fact that I went there multiple times tells me I was happy with their service, but to tell the truth, I can't remember one way or the other. Some years ago I bought quite a bit off Ye Olde Coin Co, and had no problems with them. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
MobOfRoos Pillar of the Community Australia 762 Posts	Posted 02/28/2013 04:58 am Ye Olde Coin - have probably the best value purchases in mid range value items. I have bought a lot of items from them. IS Wright - have auctions every Sunday on ebay and I then go to the Melb CBD store to collect my winnings on the Monday and usually end up buying something else while I am there. Roxburys - they also have regular ebay auctions and I have been very impressed with their grading. In fact they usually undergrade. Report this Post to the Staff
