[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 7945450, member: 20480"]You have no more common sense than I, and so many other members on the forum. I know nothing about ancient coinage, but I know plenty about treating people right. In your words, to "know that there was a reason to try to return the coin in the first place" all the buyer needed to do was look at the coin, which he had done, and decide for himself that it didn't look right to him, which he also had done. No further actions were necessary. If the buyer wanted to be able to return the coin, he should have asked the seller before doing anything to it. Myself? If I suspect something's wrong with a coin, I don't take liberties. If I am unsure about whether a coin looks natural or not, I'll just ask to return it without messing with it. If I am unsure about a coin in a scratched or marred holder, I'll go so far as to ask the seller if I may remove it without violating the return privilege. That's the least I can do. Don't defend the wrong choice . . . it was wrong. Always ask first.[/QUOTE]
