Littleton Coin Company Approval Service

Littleton is the only company that buys coins at retail and doubles their money. They generally sell to otherwise uninformed persons who have no idea what book value is

Like the "coin guys" on cable. Selling for highly inflated prices.

Littleton has a reputation for overpriced products. "Makes a great gift".

Run away! My father in law made the mistake and coins poured in through the mail. Of course he could return them but it was overwhelming so he just kept buying what they sent. He was too embarrassed to let anyone know.
When he passed away the family had to deal with the mess.
Not one coin was particularly exceptional and all were very overpriced and generally very common coins.
He was old and not too savvy. They take advantage of new collectors and uneducated people who get junk mail and see the clever adverts in magazines and mailings.
You can do much better. In the end you will regret ever getting into coin collecting because you will have lost far more money than you'll ever recoup.

As others have said, pretty much anywhere else is cheaper. I have no idea what they have their prices at, but right now I've been selling Peace dollars at $32, Morgans at $34. I can almost promise any other dealer, myself, and a few other forum members included, are cheaper no less than 100% of the time.

Edit: Holy hell, they're asking $80 each.

Not strong enough statement.

Not my advice but the way I look at it and I would imagine it works like this.

1.You subscribe and have to include a payment method to pay with some kind of credit card or paypal type account in your Littleton account.

2.They send you coins and an invoice and eventually charge you.

3. You have to return the unwanted coins within a time frame. (At your expense? I don't know?)

So, if you want to stop them, first you will have to return the coins that you will be billed for. Next, I would contact my credit card co. that Littleton has on file and get a new credit card with a different number.

Then immediately cancel my Littleton approval service and do it in a way that I could prove it was done.
Keep an email copy and be sure to get a response or photocopy of a registered letter. Be sure you have proof you cancelled the approval service and effective date. (I don't know the procedure Littleton requires to cancel)

Anything that comes in the mail from them afterwards, I don't think you are required to return. I have heard merchandise, (not my legal advice) that you did not order that comes in the mail is yours to do what you want with it.
They don't have an account to charge on file. Mailings might stop.

I would bet that the mailings will continue, even if you cancelled. They are persistent, it is how they operate.

It wouldn't surprise me though if Littleton started sending less friendly and more threatening collection agency letters instead of coins.
Your credit rating could be at risk too.

This is one kind of shark tank I don't swim in.

One of the guys I buy coins from ordered a common date wheat holefiller. Whenever he tried to call and mentioned canceling the mailings they would hang up on him.
