<p>[QUOTE=&quot;10gary22, post: 1044749, member: 23626&quot;]Honestly, I think your best bet is to walk into the dealer&#039;s shop and tell him that he gave you the wrong coin by mistake and you need to get the right one or be refunded your purchase price. I mean, are you absolutely positive that it was an intentional switch ? Even if it were and the police became involved, he could always say he made an error.</p><p><br /></p><p>Going to the police isn&#039;t going to do anything much I think. Because as I said, it would be very hard to prove he tried to defraud you. I doubt the DA would prosecute or even allow the cops to do much investigating, simply because the cost outweighs the results. Associations cannot do much more than expel a member. But again, they don&#039;t do that for someone making a mistake. In this case, I believe it&#039;s all on you. Then there is the problem that you have had possession of the coin. How do you prove that YOU didn&#039;t make a switch ? </p><p><br /></p><p>Best case is the dealer makes good on the trade. Worst case is you lost some money on the deal by getting a lower valued item. It might be an expensive lesson. My question to you is, did you have the coin in hand when you bought it ? How was the switch made ?</p><p><br /></p><p>I do not recommend going to extremes to get the dealer to make this right. Jail is not someplace good to try and recover the loss from. Not to overlook the fact that many people who carry coins, jewelry, cash, etc are armed and have a license to carry. There could be a high risk to factor here.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wish you all the luck in the world on this.</p><p><br /></p><p>gary[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
