You send it to the affiliate and in Turn they'll send to Amerrica, NOTHING is graded anywhere other than their US offices. I enquired about it Here in Munich and their turnaround of 6 weeks was actually quicker than CGS who Have up to a 3 month wait

Gold scratches easily Marvin, you also put reason to Slab and not to slab, enviromental and Mechanical, not sure what you mean by mechanical, can you explain that one?

Trying to get the number of the shipping company was impossible. Having googled the GSP There was many ebay community Threads from disgruntled customers regarding costs/time and import taxes, ESPECIALLY in Australia. Nearly EVERY Single person basically said they would'nt buy again from ebay if the GSP was part of the deal. I've emailed the seller and he basically said what richtips above has said, There was no address, only the address of the shipping company. I explained the situation and that the coin will eventually be returned to him and also said we should sort it privately without ebays wonderful New BS postage, so now i Have to wait probably another 3 weeks minimum. Richtips, you may experience the same from your buyer, pre warning, if i were you i'd opt out Cheers ebay, you suck

From 2007 mr cartwheel

After calling ebay it turns out that ONLY the seller can write the address, the GSP don't have access to that info

So, i bought a lovely Liz I sixpence on the 26th Oct, seller was part of the global shipping Programme and he told me he had to send this to an address in Alfreton who were the Partners in this shite. anyway my coin had been sat in Germany sice the 31st Oct and had'nt moved from the tracking i could see on ebay. I done a Little digging around and had come accross a lot of complaints regarding this new Service but could'nt find anyway to find the shipping Partner who'd actually done the shipping. The Boss has just called DHL to ask why the hold up and they said my Name was there plus postcode but my freaking address is'nt on the packet. Raging is'nt the word, and now DHL tells me they must send it back to the Sender, fooking excellent, assholes rant over

whether or not it came back slabbed would be my reason to submit. There's a lot of good fakes out there, those are 2 of them

So is it bent?

If its a known fake and i was unsure, such like gothic crowns or nothumbrrland shillings

It could also mean Richard that the current shift for high grade coins means your own opinions have shifted with this trend especially knowing that there is those coins out there, but the wait would kill me lol

http://lifewithjohn.net/2012/02/10/the-briot-shilling/ Does it look bent though on the REV? (null)

So backward? I know, YOU think these Emglish Designers get something right The Romans had toilets 2000 years ago.

I don't seem To Have that problem Pauly, One of the reasons i slipped into Liz I was because i was'nt finding the Chas I stuff i wanted, James coinage somehow has never appealed to me and so have'nt bought anything from his reign

And i found his other ebay name 221594504319

Yup, shitting on the crown

The Scottish poond

Not certain, but it looks to have been plugged at 8pm on the reverse, which would favour its authenticity..Good, I'll let you know when it arrives, never noticed the possible Plug though $125 shipped

Kosha? 111367413107

I honesty don't know how they'd go about grading hammered Coins, surely 99% of them Would be rejected for some BS reason but yet gain £30 for accepting the consignment, getting ridiculous

Effing ridiculous in my opinion, elitest bullshit, sorry but i would have Kept that

I can't find his other ebay Name just now, but if i remember rightly he had a Chas I HALFCROWN or Crown that was tooled but not Described as such and was in the ebay thread

He also trades under another ebay name, i remember his name as i've corresponded with him several times last year and for the life of me i cannot remember the other ebay name. I'll see if i can find it.

Great, so now I'll wait for some sunshine and a little bit of time to myself and TRY and get them all done

Just tried out the ipad camera On this set, seems to be ok. Thoughts?

I'd not bother with a repair, as Rob said, a bad job and it may lose more value. Leave as is
