<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MVC, post: 343924, member: 5290&quot;]It is unfortunate but the postal system seems to be rife with thieves.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have had several packages I have bought show up empty.&nbsp; In most cases the seller did a poor job of packaging.&nbsp; In fact, one seller put the word “RARE COIN” on the envelope.&nbsp; Guess what, that envelope showed up empty.&nbsp; Idiot.:headbang:&nbsp; It was a PCGS MS66 Walking Liberty Half.&nbsp; The Post Office Clerk handed me the envelope (again, ripped open and nearly in half) has if nothing was wrong.&nbsp; I looked at the envelope and said it’s empty.&nbsp; He said “so”.&nbsp; &nbsp; Yes it was insured, but anyway, my point is that sometimes this is due to poor packaging.&nbsp; I am not saying this seller was guilty of that though.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Having received several empty packages, and many years ago having some of my buyers claim the same, I use as much tape as I can.&nbsp; So much sometimes the postal clerks complain.&nbsp; I tell them too bad, get rid of the postal thieves.&nbsp; I typically get comments about the secure packaging.&nbsp; I only had one issue in the last 300 or so where the buyer claimed he never got it.&nbsp; I think he lied but he got a refund</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I also have paid for insurance when the buyer opts not to on more expensive coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
