I have a similar story that didn&#039;t end as well. About 8 years ago I was living in Rochester, NY on the east side, about two blocks from East High School when I ordered 3 common date U.S. $10 gold coins from a NJ dealer. The coins cost me $1,800 &amp; were sent by UPS, but I never received the coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie4" alt=":mad:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. At that time a lot of kids were skipping school &amp; hanging out behind houses in the neighborhood, smoking pot &amp; doing other stupid things <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. In fact once a week I would collect all the empty &quot;nickel bags&quot; in my back yard (sometimes they even had some leftover pot in them). After contacting the dealer &amp; waiting several weeks I called the local UPS office &amp; they sent the delivery driver to my house. He said he made a late morning delivery &amp; left the coins at my side door, ringing my doorbell before he left. He said the company policy was a signature wasn&#039;t required if the package was valued less than $2,000 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! I asked him if he was sure he rang the doorbell &amp; he said yes &amp; went outside to do it again, but the doorbell was dead <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie40" alt=":dead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. In a cavalier way he said &quot;sorry buddy&quot; &amp; left. I&#039;m sure some kid playing hooky made off with the coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Anyway, I filed a small claims lawsuit against the local UPS office, &amp; shortly after receiving their summons they sent me a check for $1,800 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I got my money back minus the court fee but didn&#039;t press the matter any further <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
