Both orders arrived last night. Oddly they shipped two separate packages (not sure why they didn't combine and save shipping).

Unfortunately they were left on my porch in plain sight without signature. I felt like calling and saying "never received" since a $2 signature is incredible insurance against such items. But I'm not that kinda person.

And I got my ASE's for a great price - especially considering this week's run up.

Boy did they include a lot of advertising in the packages!!! Full color catalog with outrageous prices and lots of BS.

My favorite was "Own a Morgan Silver Dollar that was struck during the Black Bart era" as if it was from his personal hoard or something. Everything about the wording says "we're just playing on a classic name" and then they put it into a holder that says "Black Bart" and charge almost $100 for an XF common date Morgan. There was nothing that would confirm it was from his hoard or any relation to the coin.

Technically it could have been anyone from the era with their name stamped on the slab.

Haha. I too about a month ago had a $2k coin shipped with signature just sitting in my mailbox. I briefly had that insurance notion as well but like you I'm not that type of guy. Plus it's a 1 of 1, highly unique multislab so even if I was that type of guy I'm also the type of guy that looks 3-5 steps down the road it still irks me though as there has been a rash of mailbox thefts in my neighborhood recently

According to Facebook poll, there's also a 67% chance of Zombie Apocalypse.

I'm researching market trends during the last Zombie Apocalypse. I think they called it Woodstock.

That's why we got a locking mailbox. Kids are stealing things from mailboxes in our neighborhood. It's getting us more and more ready for the Zombie Apocalypse!

I ALWAYS do coin business via my Post Office box - nothing related to coins EVER goes to my street address.
