<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2036016, member: 36230"]Easy... keep records. Under no circumstance should a retail buyer be told to "take a hike" because a dealer (or ebay seller) failed to keep proper records. We're talking a gold dollar here priced at over $200, which is a significant premium over metal content, so it is safe to assume this buyer put a reasonable level of faith in the seller's integrity; while there are countless valid reasons to refuse a refund, any self-respecting dealer/seller will guarantee authenticity no matter the amount of time that has passed since the coin was sold. While there is nothing wrong with requesting proof of ANACS' conclusion or being hesitant about such a request, it is not the buyer's fault that the seller cannot positively identify the coin as being the one he sold, nor should he be left holding the bag because of it. Again, there are countless reasons to refuse a refund, but for anyone who presents themselves as a "dealer", authenticity isn't one of them; any "dealer" not willing to stand by the authenticity of their wares in a retail setting should be avoided, period.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
