<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 258979, member: 8247&quot;]In the 2007 redbook this year, universal coin and bullion advertised a $10 ASE (included shipping).</p><p><br /></p><p>So I called to get it.&nbsp; The guy tried selling me some $20,000 of gold nonchalantly (only worth about $9,000 when I looked it up).&nbsp; I had read about these guys before I called, so I didn&#039;t even use the word yes throughout the conversation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well about 2 weeks later the same guy called again trying to sell something.&nbsp; I never received the ASE, so I told I didn&#039;t want to deal with them anymore as they were unreliable.&nbsp; Low and behold he found my order held up by a computer glitch and promised I would get it this time.&nbsp; Funny thing was he didn&#039;t try to sell me something else in the same call.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well the next time they called, they tried to sell me $25 platinum coins.&nbsp; I forget their price, but I told them since I could buy them for the local dealer for half their price, I&#039;ll pass.&nbsp; They wouldn&#039;t take no for an answer so I hung up on them.</p><p><br /></p><p>They called again and tried to sell $25 gold coins for double their value.&nbsp; I pointed out that APMEX, MJPM, and the local flea market had better prices for the grade they claimed.&nbsp; They did make me hang up on them again, but they never called again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course it was after that call that I realized I should have gone the other way.&nbsp; I should have said that I had some $25 platinum coins (the same as in the previous call) that I needed to unload in order to buy the gold and ask how much they were paying.&nbsp; Would have been funny to hear their number in context with the previous sales call.</p><p><br /></p><p>For those that want to have the chance to put them in their place, the $10 ASE deal is still there and it&#039;s in the redbook.&nbsp; But I will tell you, it&#039;s not as much fun as I thought it would be.&nbsp; Although you do get to hang up on them everytime.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
