<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2376766, member: 19463&quot;]Like eBay, vCoins does not sell coins.&nbsp; They link buyers with their member dealers and how you are treated depends entirely on which dealer you bought from.&nbsp; I have twice had to contact one dealer after ordering and paying via Paypal to ask if he had sent the coin since I had received no hint one way or another after two weeks.&nbsp; In both cases, he had not.&nbsp; That one does not get strike three.&nbsp; He is out.&nbsp; I understand you might have a death in the family or some good excuse but I expect a reply acknowledging the order other than it showing up on my Paypal list.&nbsp; eBay polices this much more strictly.&nbsp; I have received coins loose in an envelope with no paperwork (in one case, just embalmed in tape with no flip) and have received coins taped to the inside of a box large enough to have contained an RIC volume and a three page invoice/certificate.&nbsp; More eBay sellers use standard bubble mailers with labels you recognize as coming from eBay.&nbsp; I am not saying I think vCoins should be more like eBay but we all need to recognize that we are dealing with an independent business person and not buying from a Megastore in either case.&nbsp; We should expect differences.</p><p><br /></p><p>On eBay some coins are listed as as considering a &#039;Best Offer&#039;.&nbsp; A dealer is given a set time to accept or reject the offer.&nbsp; On vCoins there is a tab allowing you to communicate with the dealer about the coin.&nbsp; If you wish, you might ask if they will take $70 on their $80 list.&nbsp; Most dealers reply within a day or two one way or another.&nbsp; Some are offended and don&#039;t bother.&nbsp; You can&#039;t assume anything on this based of them both being vCoin dealers.&nbsp;&nbsp; Just yesterday, I had to inquire of a dealer where he was located since his site gave no country and his email was not one that made it obvious.&nbsp; I do not buy from certain countries (having lot the last two coins from that country or the US having MOU forbidding import from some places makes this something I want to know).&nbsp; You can&#039;t assume anything on this either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
