[QUOTE="BDA, post: 828924, member: 23590"]Nevermind.. I read up a bit more on them. Neat idea, and if I was dealing in large quantities, it would be a good deal. But a bit complicated for my taste. S&H is a bit high too... no offense intended!! $9.95 plus (depending on order), then add in another $5.95 handling plus 4%.. and that can add up quick. My last coin order from provident was $13.95 s&h... Had I bought thru BD, I would have saved 3 cents a coin ($.75 on that order of 25 coins..), but the s&h would have been $9.95, plus $5.95 plus $16 (4% of a $400 order).. a whopping $31.90 Granted, you dont pay the 4% if you wire or check pay... but thats still $15.90.. more than the savings on the coin prices. Not to be argumentative!! Just posting my reasoning for still going to provident. In all fairness, I should mention that provident does hit you for 2.3% if using online payment (PP, credit card)[/QUOTE]
