[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 4559567, member: 87404"]I've purchased a sestertius from them last summer, they discounted it 5% which was nice, and made it to the states in a couple weeks. The communication was initially a little lacking, but it turns out that, hey, it was summer and many businesses in France or Europe take weeks/months off (being from US I didn't realize that this happened), so though it took a little time to make the transaction, all worked out just fine and I was happy. To keep this post honest, here was the coin.
