johnathan Valued Member Canada 107 Posts	Posted 10/28/2010 9:27 pm This week arived about 5 coin sales from ebay, all were safely packaged, nothing fancy but adequate. One purchase had loose coins, will not buy there again.. shows they are in a rush or simply lazy to package right. I don't ask and preffer recycled package material but getting loose coins is a no no for anyone, my 2 cents j Report this Post to the Staff

Sprucansailor Valued Member United States 188 Posts	Posted 10/29/2010 02:07 am I agree 100%! I have seen some creative solutions but never just loos in the envelope or whatever. I bought a bunch of USPI Admin 1 Centavos that where in rough shape, but even they where in their own little envelope inside the packaging. Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 10/29/2010 09:55 am With a bunch of coins at least one should take care that they don't jingle in the package, otherwise there may be very curious delivery guy. Oblakavshtanax, are you related, by any chance, to Oblakabezshtanov? Report this Post to the Staff

schmidty Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 10/29/2010 10:38 am I agree. No matter what condition the coins, they should at least be kept from rattling/sliding around in the envelope. Report this Post to the Staff

Try to remember that not everyone here is an adult collector with fantastically valuable coins. For some YN's, almost any coin is valuable and when they order a coin that you consider just melt or bullion, to some it is the best they can afford. Also, to many starters in this hobby amd not just kids, all coins are valuable and dealers should at least pretend to care. Every dealer should consider the minor sales of today, a much larger sale for tomorrow. YN's do not stay YN's forever. Report this Post to the Staff
