Got sent proofs

There are no bad questions here. The whole point of CT is to ask questions.

Really? CT is the place to pose basic ethical questions?

 

Sure...that's exactly what I said.

 

I do things differently, I trust in the system! I would have been in touch with the company ASAP and would have shipped them back immediately. If I had to pay then that’s what it is but I would have shipped at first opportunity and had email confirmation with return authorization and documentation confirmation. And trust, trust in the system is a must. Remember most CC companies will side with the customer in a dispute. So if you send those coins back and never hear from that vendor again rest assured the CC company has people that will handle that.

Let me ask you this. If you order 10 pairs of shoes from Amazon and you return 6 pairs should you pay a premium? Maybe you should send back 7 pairs and only get refunded for 6. You inconvenienced the vendor should you have to “pay” for that? I’m not talking restock fee here just a plain inconvenience fee. Sorry I feel it shouldnt work that way in life.

 

Done with tact some ethics questions can be very educational. The key I feel is to use ones personal experiences as guide posts for other to observe and incorporate or not, some wisdom into their daily lives. In other words LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

I think you should personally deliver them. Drive, fly, walk, do what you have to do. If you have to take vacation days from work, so be it. Until you are relieved of this burden, the onus is on you to return them.

In all seriousness, I agree with Reed. They should send you the correct ones first, with an enclosed shipping label for the wrong ones. Why should you be out your money, have a large delay in getting your order, and be on the hook to make sure they get their incorrectly sent product back in case something goes wrong in return shipping? You should return them, absolutely, but at your convenience. Understood that this scenario will not likely happen though...

 

I'm just saying that there is no way a business is going to ship you 10 valuable items by mistake...and then send you the 10 value (but less so) items that you actually bought and packaging to send back the error. That's crazy. It will never happen. There is no way this company will risk being out 20 coins.

Would this be the most fair to the buyer...sure. Will it happen, don't hold your breath.

As for your extra comment about the shoes...a lot of places will charge you a fee. They will call it a "restocking fee" but the fact is it is just for their inconvenience.

 

They wouldn’t be out 20. The OP paid for 10

 

My mistake...I mis-spoke. My point is, the OP paid $210 and received approximately $1200 in merchandise. They are out $1000 as it stands. Why would they risk another $200.

 

All questions can be brought up on CT. Ethics, legal/illegal, right/wrong, they're all a part of transactions involving coins. This involves artificial toning, coin doctoring, etc.

 

If one wants to be evil and part of the problem then they would keep them.

If one wanted to be a human being and part of the solution then , of course they would return them.

I always do what I would do if the shoe was on the other foot or reversed.

What if they sent copper/nickel Ikes by mistake and refused to make the switch?

 

Has anyone noticed the OP has not been heard of in awhile?

 

I think the OP is history.

 

all 3 posts in this thread...

and I didn't even know that we crossed over a bridge...

 

Okey doke.

 

@mikenoodle I like to think positive and have a nice visual image in my head. I’ll think that this is what @vedersaposer looks like, isn’t he the cutest TROLL. Guess where else you find trolls Mike? Under bridges!

This post is educational in the sense that I can learn very easily who I would do business with and who I would not.

As a somewhat of an insider, I can tell you that lists of bad faith customers is shared widely among those who sell coins for a living. Even eBay bidders but not limited to them.

This is one of the last areas of business that has minimal regulation and is still done on one's word and a handshake. Because of this it must be self policed.

 

There are always bad Pennies. Pun required! 150 years ago we would just shoot um.


@Bambam8778 is that you in the show down?

 

Do you do business with this place on a regular basis? If not keep them. How many times have we been screwed by the seller!

 

How many? I'm not familiar with this seller causing issues.
