<p>[QUOTE="justndav76, post: 674208, member: 17428"]I completely understand where you and the others are coming from, but I dont think people are seeing the big picture here. If Bank of America has stopped selling rolled coin to regular customers and will only sell to business customers then what about all those folks who are having yardsales lets say, what are they suppose to do if all banks start doing this? I think its a terribly bad idea to start going down the road of not allowing people to buy rolled coin unless they have a business bank account. Can no one understand this point? What are people going to do when that happens across the board at all banks? I sure as heck wont be paying for rolled coin from the Mint at a premium. Around here we cant even go to a coin star machine to get change, they only take in change and dont sell from the machine. I guess the solution will have to be something like coin ATM's if banks stop selling coins. </p><p>Also if a bank is in such bad shape that they need to charge for rolled coin I dont know if I'd want to bank there. Banks are suppose to make their money off loans, safety deposit boxes, bill pay services, and things of this nature. Yeah Brinks will charge to have coin delivered and picked up but they are minimal... so we might as well not beat a dead horse here... we have people on both sides of the argument and we are all pretty firm in our beliefs on this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
