<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ycon, post: 4602087, member: 91771&quot;]Buying coins from Italy is always like this, in my experience (minus covid, of course.) I mainly collect Italian coins so I&#039;ve gotten used to it-- although I really prefer to buy from the auction houses based in San Marino, since it is much simpler. </p><p><br /></p><p>Apparently some of the export offices have re-opened, but not all of them. And they all have a huge backlog from before the outbreak... so I would just try to be patient. </p><p><br /></p><p>My experience with Italian auction houses has always been that they get a bit snippy when you badger them about this, because they have absolutely no control over the process. I was about to buy a very expensive coin from one recently, but I didn&#039;t after the dealer suggested I try and find it from somewhere else because he didn&#039;t want to deal with the hassle of the export offices right now...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
