[QUOTE="Owle, post: 760239, member: 22004"][b]Shipping losses[/b] If you speak with any coin dealer or other person who relies on UPS and USPS or other carrier, you will hear a lot of stories of problems. The successes are a fairly high percentage, and the shipping companies should be applauded for millions and millions of deliveries done almost perfectly! If the UPS and the USPS adopted a slightly higher percentage of loss, it would go a long way toward assuaging customer concerns. But the lawyers and actuaries are often dictating the terms of the contract. Even NGC and PCGS use legal weasel words to give them some latitude if a given set of coins is not processed in the agreed on time. Most of my losses are due to not running a given situation by a seasoned expert or lawyer. I recently joined Pre-Paid Legal that offers free access to lawyers as part of the deal. Hopefully, this will limit some errors.[/QUOTE]
