[QUOTE="FentonForche, post: 563761, member: 18064"]I know...and the COA (not that that is worth anything) is for the silver quarters. The guy's a power seller with 33,000 feedback ratings at 99.7%. You'd think he'd be a good guy to buy from. But when I wrote him about the crack the response was very non-helpful...just said it must have been damaged in the mail because he personally inspected it before putting it in. But, A) The scratches were so extensive and so multi directional that this couldn't have been the normal wear from one shipment. This is a "well loved" proof set. b) And B, he just wrapped it in a bubble envelope--that's fine if you're sending single coins in those "fold over" style holders that you staple shut, but if you're sending a proof set with a plastic casing, then all you need is for it to be put underneath something heavy and of course the plastic is going to crack. Watch, he'll probably accuse me of swapping out the silver for this clad set in some sneaky attempt to swindle him out of $5 of book value coins.[/QUOTE]
