I continued to recieve their publications and stuff, as they are always nice to look through even if i have no intentions of buying. A couple years ago, i recived an email from them advertising the washington commemorative. It said, Get the RARE coin now, Not many were made for public collections, get it before its gone forever. I sent them an email 'informing' them that the washington commem had a combined mintage of 6 or 7 million coins (i cant remember exactly off hand now) and that i couldnt belive that a company with the historical integrity of Littleton would outright LIE to its customers just to sell some way over priced coins. I got a generic email back saying that they were sorry i was unhappy (yadda yadda) and that while littleton scoins may seem high, the customer service that accompanies such a coins is priceless. I sent them a reply to remove me from ALL future mailings.. and since then, i havenet heard a peep - and i think i prefer it that way!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
