<p>[QUOTE="PaulTudor, post: 4545777, member: 103058"]1610 WA Saxe Weimar taler, joint rule of 8 brothers,</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin has a very unusual story, at least for me! So i bought it on ebay, from Germany and paid through the bank, which i normally avoid, unless it's a german, because i never had any 'honesty' issues with them! Now in this case, the seller kept saying that he didn't received the money though my transfer app was showing the opposite so i thought that i was being scammed for the first time! We went like that for more than two weeks until he realised that the money were paid into his account, but the transaction was not displaying my name, only a tranfer reference number! He decides it's safe to send it with DHL, for which he paid 18 euros! As i was following the online tracking system, i've noticed that the coin couldn't be delivered as there was a problem with my address(?) so calling their customer service system i was shocked to find out that the post code wasn't mine, but i was inspired enough to write it down! After 50 min of waiting in the phone, i was assured that the coin will not be sent to anyone until they launch an international investigation, as a result of my complain!Three days after, my coin was delivered to someone else (!!!!) and the customer service told me there's nothing they can do about it now!!! I thought i was going to explode at that point! Having saved that post code and the surname of the person who signed for the coin, i decided to google them together and found a gentleman that actually replied to my call. He told me that he was very surprised to receive a DHL box with his details on it and inside the box, there was a letter with my name on it and address (!!!!!) He was more than understanding and posted the coin to me at his own expense, for which i'm obviously very grateful! So i guess i'm lucky to have it in the end, but what a headache it caused me!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1125359[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1125358[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
