<p>[QUOTE=&quot;YOTHR, post: 18442392, member: 143785&quot;]First of all, it&#039;s very hard to take sides unless you&#039;ve heard both sides. so I can only answer in general terms here. I would describe myself as a regular customer at Leu. Leu are not the very fastest, but still within normal limits. However, I have always reliably received all my coins. I would classify Leu as one of the very reputable auction houses. I never worry about having any real problems here with Leu.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, I can write something general about shipping from Europe to England, as I myself have to send coins from Germany to England several times a month. And I must honestly admit that soon I will think about not selling anything to England (at least for now). Why did you agree to this BREXIT <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ...?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Okay, seriously - I want to give you the reasons.</p><p><br /></p><p>Post. I can&#039;t send anything by mail to England at the moment. Items take weeks to be delivered in England because of the strike. Leu normally sends a lot by mail as well. But Leu may not do this at this time because of the strike in England. And yes also my customers know that the English Post is on strike - but still I get the anger and the bad rating afterwards - because the coins take so long to the recipient.</p><p><br /></p><p>UPS. In England, UPS somehow doesn&#039;t seem to be a good idea. Out of 10 UPS shipments, 4 (!) shipments have been sent back to me again, because UPS didn&#039;t understand how to calculate these coins at customs! And 2 shipments have come back again because UPS didn&#039;t manage to collect the customs fees from the recipient. Only 4 (!) shipments have reached the recipient.</p><p><br /></p><p>Leu certainly has extra insurance. Because otherwise Leu would not send me my expensive coins from Switzerland to Germany by normal letter (!). So it can not be because of this reason.</p><p><br /></p><p>But it may well be that whether extra insurance or not - FedEx refuses to transport these coins with this value! Because it is an overvalue that FedEx does not want to accept. It does not matter if you have an extra insurance or not!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Long speech, short sense. I know friends from the USA who have had coins shipped from LEU Switzerland to the USA for several thousand CHF. So it is neither the distance nor the lack of insurance. It is currently not easy to send coins from the EU mainland to you in England. I know what I am talking about.</p><p><br /></p><p>The best thing to do is to call Leu and clarify this directly with them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
