<p>[QUOTE="Terence Cheesman, post: 3158602, member: 86498"]I have been collecting ancient coins since the summer of 1971 and in the fall of that year I started buying coins from foreign dealers. On the whole I have gotten good service. Out of the hundreds of coins shipped, only one has ever been lost though i must admit there have been a few with a major delay that being over a month. I will say that the overall service seems to be getting progressively worse. What used to take a week now takes two or even three. I will continue to buy from any source anywhere where I think the coin offered has some significance to me. However I will say that I have been attending more shows as well as auctions and purchasing more coins at them than I did in the past. This is because I am purchasing fewer more expensive coins and I want to see them in the flesh before I purchase[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
