Does anyone have any experience with Nomisma spa? My recent experience of buying a plated Claudius denarius has made me very mindful of Auction house return policies and guarantees of authenticity. Nomisma appears to offer a 20 day return window which makes me slightly wary. I know there is a previous thread on Naumann but I am struggling to find clarity on their return policy and is it a life time guarantee? Google translate is proving inadequate with their terms and conditions.
For Nomisma spa the terms are spelled out in the "Terms of Sale" at the beginning of the auction. Their current auction has been listed on both NumisBids and SixBid auction portals for quiet a while. With only 22 hours left before the current auction starts it is a little to late ask them about your concerns and receive a satisfactory answer. They are busy preparing for the auction. With any foreign auction, if there is any legal issue the country that the auction house resides in takes precedence over your home country. Bottom line is this, ask the auction house at least two weeks in advance about your concerns. Make sure they take PayPal, sometimes they can help with some issues. If the auction house does not take PayPal then move along to another auction house. Using bank drafts and similar forms of payment can get very expensive. Your question more than likely involves authenticity/condition of a coin or coins. Bring those issues up to this forum well in advance of the auction date. There are many knowledgeable and helpful collectors here. This reply could for the most part be applied to Numismatik Nauman. I'm not sure if I answered your questions, but I hope it helps.
Thanks tibor, I understand Nomismas terms I was just curious if anyone had previous dealings with them as nothing comes up when I search on the forum (which is a bit unusual). I have asked for clarification from Naumann, i'm sure they'll get around to responding eventually.
