I understand how disappointing it is when you expected to receive a phone but when it arrives, you just found out that it was just an empty package and you're concerned as your seller is not offering you a resolution. I appreciate the fact that you have exerted effort to rectify the issue with your trading partner by trying to communicate with them. I know how discouraging it can be on your part when you've waited for the item to arrive yet things like this happen. Let me take this opportunity to explain how we can sort this issue out.

I wish you all the best on your future trading on eBay. Kind regards, Geraldine Davis eBay Customer Service"

update is luckily the guy did not reply to any of my messages or to the case that i opened so hopefully makes the escalation of the case easier. suppose havent gotten the full extent to how bad this could have been due to him not replying i imagined it could have been alot worse, in future ill be recording all my packages if they seem suspect. still waiting on decision though but should be a clear cut case really

Think he meant that because they were so rubbish(i myself waited 60 days each time for return) that he will not be sending any of the rest of his collection to be graded. As a slab fan myself and after looking for other alternatives i use NGC now(didn't realize they had european sites thank you BRG ).

Sixpence-another one of comparable grade(i think so anyway ) take it this is one of the more common mint marks?

pff ill have to change my name then second time someone has said that, changed it to avoid confusion i think ive not done too bad for a 22 year old student still to sort the prices out and a bit of the layout but almost finished it now! you will notice the Henry VIII groat and who helped me purchase that

dem proof like hammered coins

as i said problem with that is if you put a bid too big(not sure what the cut off is) ebay gives you some notice that you need to call them for safety bla bla bla bla what one did you bid on lets have a war

i put a bid of £100,000 on it so someone didn't end up getting scammed in the end until i realized ebay has in place a bidding cap where i could no longer bid on any more items after this(weird) there's another 5 guineas for sale most likely from the same guy if anyone is interested (stolen from London coins I think)

i wanted it badly but not a chance i was going to pay that well done at any rate chris

double lucky finding the coins already slabbed and graded by pcgs

thanks for your help ill check with the weight tomorrow, are the royal mail able to give out that information on technically someone other than my sent package?

Website is in the initial stages not really done anything yet can change name if names are too similar (rp isnt really key just my name really so can remove that if it causes confusion) waiting on those LED lights mentioned in a thread about a month ago before i start taking pictures of stuff (Ikea ones but 5x cheaper from china,well see how it goes ) will be some good stuff for sale i'm just worrying about prices and grades i list as i dont want to make myself look silly

Im guessing these 2 guys are pretty well known for buying British coins? they along the lines of a British version of P.Newman or something ?

member of parliament

did you count the proof sets,currency sets/BU sets also?

i managed to snipe(buy it now spipe) an executive and delux proof set there for just under £100, hope the craze lasts just long enough for me to flip them

i managed to find mine in circulation ind you i went through about £1000 worth of 50p coins and only got 1 so kinda rare i guess?

more $$ for you interesting how even recent production items like this the book value goes out the window, what did you have its value listed in your recent book if you dont mind me asking?

or the more common "L@@K"

guy that put one on at £20 a few minutes ago must be a tad gutted

sorry for spam and hijacking thread but all 5 sold in under a hour for £50 ebay...whaddya know

And that was just a normal circulated example. The London Coin co was selling BU examples at £24 earlier today (as reported in the Guardian article), they have just re-listed them at £79.95! haha this is quite amusing when even London coin co. get their prices too cheap, fished mine out the coin cabinet and it is listed too

one just ended for £56 not sure what to make of that price though

anyone collect current circulation notes at all? just me maybe?

aww i was going to stop at £1500 but if you want ill stop at £1000 i suppose
