Guys I have been roll hunting for 4 years now, and I have just recently coaxed one branch of a large national bank (in Canada) to order me some boxes. I have asked numerous banks, ones that are friendly to my CRH routine, and they sat policy is not to order for customers.

My question is this, the bank ordering me the boxes (2 boxes dimes and 1 box quarters) was doing this on a week to week thing. I would come in, buy the boxes, and say I would be in next week & to order the boxes etc.

Well over the holidays, I was not going to be there one week, I told the teller (who knows about the arrangement) to tell the head teller I was not going to be there the following week.

So the next time I went in (2 weeks after last visit) the head teller asked where is was and that she had the boxes for me.

The other teller mentioned at that point that I had said not to order the boxes. (I guess this teller did not actually relay the message)

I walked into the branch thinking there would not be any boxes, and I had less than the $1000 on me at the time. so I was a bit in a lurch.

I asked her to open the boxes, and low and behold they were all brand new (plastic wrapped) from the mint coins. Which I cringe when I see, in the past I just grinned and bought them, and dumped them at another bank on my way home. however, At this point I explained my $$ situation, she looked at other boxes she had and I ended up buying about $600 of CWR.

This was a few weeks ago, and she says she still has the boxes I refused.

She is still nice to me and I get rolls from her, but it seems like she was in trouble because of the extra coinage.

Should I offer to buy to boxes and just dump them like I would have in the first place?

The issue wasn't really my fault, and it would be extra work on my part to just dump them.

What are your guys thoughts?
