<p>[QUOTE=&quot;claycad, post: 1158496, member: 17987&quot;]Hmm, that&#039;s never crossed my mind actually, my brother buys and sells on craigslist a lot. I am going to try ebay out for a while and see how that goes. At least that way I can let the market determine the sell value by having many people bid. Besides, right now I am selling low grade inexpensive coins that I doubt people would be willing to go out and meet someone to buy. The only concern I have is somebody saying they didn&#039;t receive one of their coins. I sold a lot of 24 IHC for instance and plan to sell other lots like that, but I&#039;m concerned that a buyer might receive the package and make a claim that &quot;I received all but the 1909 coin, send me another or give me a partial refund&quot;. I actually got what I thought was a brilliant idea and video taped my placing each coin into mailer and sealing it with the shipping label already on it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Not recieving a coin is frustrating too. I ordered a few from a guy and didn&#039;t receive a Sacajawea proof that I paid ~$10 for in my package. I contacted the seller and he swore he put it in the package, well I swear that he didn&#039;t. Now I don&#039;t think the guy was trying to rip me off. I think it may have been an honest mistake and he probably thought I was scamming him trying to get an extra $10 coin. Finnally after many email correspondences he agreed to send me another coin, BUT HE NEVER DID. It actually slipped my mind for a while, by the time I ever thought of it again the 45 days or so to file a paypal claim was long over. Atleast it was only $10 and not a lot more. And hey, everyone makes a mistake. I may mistakenly forget to put a coin in a package too, I figure my video taping it, If I ever get a complaint about a missing coin I will have proof that either they lost the coin when opening the package (I try to package in such a way that this is unlikely though) or they are flat out trying to scam me or perhaps I did make an honest mistake and forget to place a coin in the package. It would be on video no matter the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tape me counting out the coins out for order, then I show the mailer to the camera with the address label already on it I show each coin to the camera and place it in the mailer and seal it once all the coins are in. I suppose somebody could claim that I simply opened the mailer after the filming, removed a coin and reprinted the address label and put them in a new mailer, but first, I have a little faith that most people are honest and this will never be an issue, and second if it ever was, the person would know they&#039;re lying about it and own up to their lie if I sent them a tape of me packaging the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>This may be a little paranoid and overkill though, what do you think? Like I said, I didn&#039;t receive a coin in an order I placed before and while I don&#039;t think the seller was ripping me off but just made an honest mistake, it was still frustrating and came down to my word against his. I want to avoid this situation with any of my buyers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
