Today I got nothing except a message telling me my package was delivered with photo evidence and how great it is to have good neighbours like John at 2a to where my package was delivered. Only problem there is no 2a or anyone called John.   

Will not be holding my breath for John to bring me my package. Oh well, John will be 2 sovereign richer and I will have to go through the hassle of getting a refund. Called courier company to tell them to get the driver to go back and retrieve my package and was told only sender can do that.  

Why any company does not use the RMSD  I will never know.   UPS and DPD are useless. Had a eBay buyer who wanted a refund when they found out that the Authenticators are using UPS to forward on the package after authenticating.  I did not blame him and quickly refunded.

I hope you will get your money back @Spyder

Thanks. No worry of getting it back. Just the the hassle involved.

Company has already been informed and were not happy regarding the photo or wrong address. They get the same message as me when delivered. They will claim off the courier company and will come out of the drivers pocket.  Will teach them to do their job properly and read the address 

It's by far the worst part of buying and selling. I sent 19 parcels off yesterday morning and just waiting/hoping they all get delivered is an unnecessary stress.

A few more silver pieces picked up over the last month or so.

The 1997 Canadian 1oz silver Maple 🍁 has the lowest mintage level for the standard bullion design at 100,970 coins.

The two little silver bars are 400 grains of 80% silver were minted for Singapore 🇸🇬 Airlines during the 1980s and were given as gifts to long haul passengers. They produced this “Wonders of the World” series with these two being the Great Wall of China and Niagara Falls.

Finally the 1991 Canadian  🇨🇦 1oz silver Maple bullion coin, mintage 644,300 coins.

One of my biggest coin regrets, buying one of these at the car bootsale, then selling it again right off the bat. Before I knew I was date running maples. 😂

I just don't want to pay £60 odd for some now. I'll find another cheap one at some point in time.

I like Kooks as well.  Have you got a 2022 - that's my fave of the recent Kook designs.

The Sovereign is the quintessentially British coin.  It has a German queen on the front, an Italian waiter on the back, and half of them were made in Australia.

Hello, this is not witchcraft but actually quite simple and can therefore also be written here. I always take photos at a bright window, normal daylight. I don't have an expensive camera like the professionals. Mine is a Panasonic DMC-TZ 22 and I only use the automatic mode. And afterwards I edit the pictures a little with an image editing programme. But a steady hand when releasing the shutter is crucial. Greetings from Maxe.

You shouldn't get any junk mail or calls from them at all unless you said Yes Please to this bit on the checkout. You did read the terms and conditions, right?
