<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtis, post: 24633762, member: 26430&quot;]It’s hard for anyone to know exactly what’s going on, but honestly, what you’ve said does not make the seller sound scammy to me. They responded &amp; already agreed to a refund (even though you may still get the coin, possibly just because it&#039;s too much trouble, which I&#039;ve seen happen many times in this situation).</p><p><br /></p><p>My honest opinion – I really don&#039;t mean to be rude or anything – but it kinda sounds like the red flags might be more on your end. </p><p><br /></p><p>It’s an international shipment &amp; by your account you started repeatedly emailing the seller after a few days because it hasn’t shown up yet in tracking. </p><p><br /></p><p>And a week-and-a-half in you’re talking about opening a dispute with the credit card and basically going to war with a vendor when it’s not really clear what’s even going on.</p><p><br /></p><p>To me, those could be red flags (unless there are some other things we don&#039;t know about).</p><p><br /></p><p>When buying internationally, I would suggest making allowances for overseas shipping and language issues (and, as with any business dealings, honest mistakes). I buy ancient coins and numismatic literature all time from Germany &amp; elsewhere, from many dealers in various price ranges, have been doing so for decades now. If you pay by credit card (rather than bank transfer), it&#039;s usually no different than within the US, besides delivery time &amp; languages other than English. If a glitch happens, as they do with any business dealing, it&#039;s usually not a big deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>And if the worst happens because the item got lost and you&#039;re entitled to a refund, then get your refund, doesn&#039;t seem like the should be a crisis at all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
