Just reading your posts in regard to this matter. Purchase was made on a Friday...right (?)

First queston in my mind is "How was payment made ? Cash through the post or by direct debit (internet banking) ?

If it is the former, you have to make allowance for the cash to be received by the seller. If it is the later, EFT's on a Friday is not cleared into the seller's account until the following Monday evening if you both use the same Bank or on a Tuesday if you both use different Banks.

Assuming the funds were cleared on Tuesday, you then have to consider posting times of sellers, most sellers I know of ahve set times each day for posting. There is no seller that I know off that will run to the PO each time funds are cleared into their accounts.

Given all of the above, lets assume further the coins were posted on a Wednesday afternoon....it will then depend how far away you are from the seller. It is a fact that mail from the Eastern States take a longgggggg time getting over to WA. I have had coins posted on the same day from Sydney and the US and have on a few occassions where the coins from the US arrive here before the ones from Eastern States...figure that out.

Just be patient matey.....

P/S....if you are concerned, just ring the seller.

1937 crown and a couple of 1966 50c, not worth a lot, but its a start, when I have the funds I'm going to get a 1938 crown.
Until then i'll stick with what I got, might stalk the post office though as they have some silver coins going.
