[B]Everyone needs to know what a stand up guy Frank Robinson is[/B]: Lolli posted Sunday [USER=76440]@Carausius[/USER] , [USER=76111]@Carthago[/USER] and [USER=79368]@Barry Murphy[/USER] concurred with the conclusion. Monday I contacted Frank, and immediately the reply was "of course you can send it back" Tuesday I mailed it out Wednesday the coin was in transit Thursday mid-afternoon I received reimbursement in full I don't think I can say it any better than [USER=33176]@Kentucky[/USER] did [/FONT][/QUOTE]
