I just had the most nasty package arrive. A coin was placed in 3 boxes. Outer box was priority mail box. Middle was a soap box. Inner was a CONDOM BOX. Who ships like that?!?
Sorry, that was me. Just using what's laying around... I like be clean and ...well, ya know. I would think the appropriate way to do that with this packaging is in the trash can.
Did you win the coin in an auction @jwitten ? Maybe the seller was disappointed in the final result of the auction. Chris
Yup, and it turns out I bought it from someone I actually sold it to a few years ago with my selling account. I bought it from my buying account, so I'm not positive he remembers me, but that might be what it is. I think he lost about $100 on it, ouch.
Unfortunately, some people just don't have a sense of humor when it comes to losing money on coins they have purchased. They never got the message that this is a hobby. Chris
Most complaints about shipping are about poor packaging and coins arriving damaged. You're complaining about how well yours was packaged and protected? So what if it was in a soap box; maybe it was there so you could get on yours.
