<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nerosmyfavorite68, post: 8249504, member: 134416&quot;]I recently have been ordering from London Ancient Coins.&nbsp; On the mailing menu was the dreaded DHL (and my little order would have been 30-something dollars to ship).&nbsp; The USPS registered was expensive (around 16 bucks) and slow, but my first order arrived safely, so I&#039;m happy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps British customs are slower; the French order came ultra-fast.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve only had one coin end up as truly lost over the years.&nbsp; Unfortunately, it was a really nice Sassanian drachm.&nbsp; I had ordered it at the same time as an Allen Berman inexpensive order. The AB eventually showed up, undamaged inside, but obviously having gone through some kind of mail sorter mishap.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also endured the post office destroying a very rare radio-related record; the earliest known 1942 episode of Duffy&#039;s Tavern. The record was slighly warped and was concerned about it snapping, so the sender packed it in a pizza box and it wasn&#039;t exactly bulletproof packing.&nbsp; The only consolation, it had been dubbed before mailing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
