[QUOTE="Ryro, post: 8282564, member: 91461"]Thanks much:) Bidding on them can get pretty bonkers pretty quick. Best practice: Be patient I probably bid on 5 or 6 of these before winning this HUMBLE example:shame:. But folks just seemed to sleep on it due to their being several big auctions that day and the condition:bucktooth: That said, I really feel that I stole this particular coin with a song:jimlad::singing: Another sad story with a happy ending for RC's AWESOME thread:bookworm: I waited 362 days (insultingly, the wayward coin wouldn't even give me a full year to complain about:depressed:) I ordered a bunch of coins from a Timeline auction that ended Feb 25th 2020. With them you know you're going to have to wait for them to get the customs clearance.... and then... What happened two weeks later... COVID! I did get most of my order, in two different shipments. But one coin just couldn't make its way. Due to the rotten Rona and them having a hard time communicating with the British board of whatever:pompous:it took them less than a week under a full year to get this unimpressive RR to me: [ATTACH=full]1462952[/ATTACH] Here's me griping about it when it was only a few months late: [URL]https://www.cointalk.com/threads/anyone-else-waiting-for-the-arts-council-england-to-open-for-timeline-auction-to-send-coins.360599/#post-4528714[/URL][/QUOTE]
