Dearborn Moderator United States 95149 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 6:55 pm I bought 2 presidential medals from a company on ebay but they arrived in a not so perfect condition: One coin had unsightly milk spots and the other deep scratches. So I contact them and tell them. They agree to exchange them for me and for me to send them back (They paid for return shipping). Now, once they got the coins back, the immediately refunded me all the costs of the coins. I thought the deal was done. I go find another person to replace the coins - no problems there (I already have them in my possession). Now, here's the kicker - The first company I bought the coins from, just sent me an email stating that my replacements are in the mail and on the way. After checking my bank account I see that they did NOT re-charge for the coins.... Both of the coins are in their protective plastic cases and I don't know when or how the scratch got on the one coin. If I had bought it directly from the mint, I may have kept it as an error or damage while in the mint. But going through a third party - who knows.. What do you peeps think? Collecting since 1972.

Replacement was okay but mark on reverse, whatever. Report this Post to the Staff

Since you found a replacement from another source and the original sender refunded you, you have a few options:: 1. Be a schmuck and keep everything. 2. Call the original sender and describe to them the original issue or send back the replacement they sent you with a pleasant note thanking them for their attention to customer service, The choice is clear & Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95149 Posts	Posted 02/13/2021 10:58 am Huh, somebody actually took the time to read and understand my post. Bravo! I'm waiting for the new medals to arrive so I can lok at them. If in decent condition I'll probably keep them (AND let the seller that I got them and pay for them). I can always re-sell them later on when (if) demand picks up on them. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
