[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 3409575, member: 78244"]In general, I don’t return coins. If I find out later that I don’t like it, I misattributed the coin from the pictures, can’t make money on it, or I overpaid due to improper research, it is my responsibility to deal with the coin, not the seller’s. At that point I just sell it and hope break even/make a profit. There are some very specific circumstances in which I will return a coin: 1. Authenticity issues. I’ve returned many a fake coin, even those that were just questiinable, and gotten refunds. If the fake is from a lot and that coin was one of the main reasons I got the lot, then I try to seek a partial refund. 2. Grossy misdescribed. This is reserved for when the seller fails to mention, for example, the coin had been professionally holed and plugged. Another example is when a coin was described as a proof and turned out to be a cleaned business strike. This is rare for me, and I have never had an issue. 3. Scam. One time I bought one coin, and the seller deliberately tried sending me a clearly different coin (the pictured coin was EF/AU, the coin I got was G). I was successful returning that one. 4. Honest mistakes. Maybe the seller mixed up packages (I have done so before). I have not had many of these (none come to mind at the moment). 5. Not meeting the guarantee. This one is hypothetical. For example, if the seller guaranteed, in writing, that the coin would straight-grade and doesn’t, I will try to return it.[/QUOTE]
