Hey everyone, I wanted to just warn everyone about the people at A-Coin in Jacksonville, Florida. I'm a YN, and they apparently do not know how to treat their customers right. A-Coin is the closest coin store to me, and today I left my volunteering job early so I could stop by and check out their Morgans (I wanted to buy a few for my set-in-progress). Anyways, I've had some previous problems with them before, such as them selling me coins that were cleaned when they didn't warn me about it (I was younger) and much of their coins are overpriced. Anyways, getting back today, I walked in and there was a group of about 3 people there. I was walking around looking at the displays until they left. Right after they left, I walked over to Chip, the assistant to the owner.

Anyways, I asked him if I could see some graded 62-63 Morgans. He gives me some crap about how they're too busy to do it at this time of the year.I look around. I'm the only one in the store. So I ask him why I can't see them, because I'm the only one in the store. He then goes on explaining that "at any moment, we could have someone walk in that's a $20,000 deal, and they will leave if they see you with the Morgans spread out on the table." Obviously then, he was discriminating against me as a YN, because I don't have enough money for him apparently (I had $1100, cash....) The whole time this is going on, the owner is watching, not saying a word. So I tell him that I won't be coming back and he just says "I don't care, I don't care! This isn't Walmart!"...So I left and I was fuming.

I got home and told my parents, and they agreed that I should call back and try to talk to the owner. So I call and Chip picks up. This is what I actually said. "Um, Hello, could I speak to the owner please?" and Chip screams "NO!' and hangs up the phone!! Can you believe that!!?? What a jerk! I was sitting there thinking about what I should do next, and the phone rings. It's A-Coin. I pick it up and it's Chip, explaining "Sorry, we had another customer." Another customer??? Are you kidding me!!?? He SLAMMED the phone down after screaming at me! What a LIAR!

I then ask him why he wouldn't let me look at Morgans while I was there, and I explained that i was ready to buy. He tells me again that he doesn't care, and he tells me that they don't have any Morgans for me to look at! What is he shovelling? It was a completely different excuse than what he gave me earlier! I point that out to him, and he tells me that I am no longer welcome in the store for one year...(haha, not as if I was going back anyways....)

So, in closing, STAY AWAY FROM A-COIN!! THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU AT ALL UNLESS YOU'RE LOADED!

Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest, because I am still MAD...
