[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2638104, member: 44316"]I have been thinking about the questionnaire and do not like it. Most of the answers don't matter. What does matter is 1) Was the coin as described? and 2) Did it arrive (without very long delay)? The questions have too much worry about a day or two in shipping time. You might have your coins for decades! If you make decisions based on getting a coin two or three days earlier, you don't care enough about which coins you get. I think one useful question would be "How did the picture compare to the coin?" As we have proven on this forum, pictures can be misleading. The last coin i got in the mail was actually a bit better than the picture (which did not quite capture the metallic nature of the silver). You might get answers like "Just like the coin" or "Scratches on the coin were not visible in the picture" or "The coin is slightly better than the picture." "The coin was much darker than the photo." Those responses can help decide was a coin is like, which is what I want to know before I order it. Question 1: How did the picture compare to the coin? Question 2: Did it arrive without problems? The rest of the proposed questions don't matter.[/QUOTE]
