Record your lost or stolen coins here.
azda replied to jelida's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
This story is a few years old, but this Cromwell shilling was sold by me on eBay to someone in Glasgow. I sent the coin with DPD from Dundee, it arrived into Germany over a weekend and was then eventually returned to their hub in Birmingham during the same weekend where it was never to be seen again, no refund from DPD as they said it was an antique which was prohibited. There is a small scratch in front of Ollies mouth which would help identify. -

Lol, you should literally watch a bit of YouTube, this overuse was born in America where its literally abused by nearly everyone right now, I literally think its taken the place of the word amazing in their vocabulary -
I bought a calendar from an astrophotographer in the UK, total cost was £19 but he put £10 on the packet as value. DHL came and said you need to pay me €8,50 and I was scratching my head as to why he wanted money (I"d forgotten about the calendar as the photographer said it would be a little later down the road before posting) So I check the packet and see it was in fact the calendar, problem being that before tax is applied you are allowed up to €22 tax free, this Brexit is becoming a joke. I have coins sitting at Stanstead that I posted with Fedex priority, 24hr delivery, 5 days later they are still awaiting customs clearance, everything they wanted has been given to them, there is no need for this wait.

They shot themselves in the foot, far too greedy, excessive fees, changes to the feedback system, dispute system was always one sided, the list was endless, haven't used it in years to be honest

Ebay has always been a law unto itself. I haven'T bought nor sold on there for years now, it's went downhill and they want far too much of your money.

1828 Half Sovereign with pearls?
azda replied to MichaelC62's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Is the coin from a reputable person/dealer? -
I don’t have neither of the Bull versions, I didn’t know either that there was a gold version out, just spotted it elsewhere, but always good for another reference, I don’t think it goes to the depth that Marsh did or that Steve Hill has subsequently updated.

So this 'ere bitcoin malarkey....does anybody understand how it works?
azda replied to 1949threepence's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
It’s not been adopted by everywhere because the SEC want the exchanges to give them info on trades, problem being, the exchanges are also screwing investors. You can buy as much or as little Bitcoin as you want, you don’t have to buy 1 whole btc (which right now is $50k) you can buy $100 of you want. -

First and foremost, bitcoin is highly manipulated by whales (whales are people who can move the market with the amount they hold) Bitcoin can be sent to one person or another within minutes for a very small fee, millions can be moved for $10 as an example. Bitcoin and exchanges aren't regulated, so exchanges do a lot of wash trading. Exchanges have been hacked and millions stolen. This isn't for the faint hearted, people have lost their life savings due to a culmination of things I've written here. You can become rich if you have the patience, but its a long road reading and learning, a friend of mine stuck around 140k into it around 2017, he was down to about 30k at one point, now he's at 1.5 million -
So, I bought a Mercedes GLC 250 Petrol last year, it was a 2017 model and really enjoyed driving it, I had been looking for something with a little higher spec as mine was basic but an AMG line coupè. I wasn't really pushing to sell until I saw this attached one. Its basically the exact same car (a GLC) but it has virtually everything spec wise, I think the only thing it lacks is a towbar, anyway, my GLC cost me 35k and was offered 37,500 for the trade in, now, that has to be a first, getting paid to drive a Mercedes for a year
