[QUOTE="Nemo, post: 2532331, member: 58462"]Well, here's the next update. After several more bizarre exchanges with the auction house, including this one - "Dear Customer, Thank you for your e-mail. Our office is actually closed. We will be back on the 5th of April 2016. Happy Easter! Your Hess Divo Team" I'm happy to report that I finally got my coin! They were refusing to send it till they [SIZE=4]got their coins back but, after some outstanding, generous, thoughtful help from one of the kind members here, my coin was shipped and I received it as pictured in the auction. (I won't presume to name who helped me since we communicated through PM) I asked HessDivo to provide me with a prepaid shipping service to return the coins sent to me in error. They said they would not do[/SIZE] that and, instead, to ship the coins back registered mail. They said they would reimburse me up to 25 CHF and, if it was more, to contact them for approval. I suppose they expected me to go to the post office, wait on line, have the package weighed and priced and then return home and email them for approval on the shipping. :wacky: In any case, I just returned the coins today for a cost of $36.45 US, well over my approved spending cap. I look forward to finding out how this saga will end. At the very least, I have learned quite a few valuable lessons that I won't soon forget.[/QUOTE]
