bluffer

its so bad, it got mentioned yesterday in binlord of the week on ebay thread!

least you have yours! I am still waiting for my silver piedfort 50p.🤬 i dont normally buy them but because of the circumstances, i made it my first. dispatching "soon" is the order status. how soon is soon though?

a nice display case and shorter dispatch time than for the soverign sets. I'm in! 🤣

do we get a nice display box though?

i must be lucky. the one i got from rm was pretty good. i have by no means put it under a microscope and doubt it would get an ms 70 but there were no easily visible marks, scratches or dents. or the m word - yet.

i think this guy Ian Paul Lambert has been getting a rubbish reputation on a lot of facebook groups over the last year or more. I would need to double check but the name rings a bell, especially the looky likey trading name to piggyback onto changechecker.com

genuine question, why are you not bumping sales threads? you are potentially cutting out a fair percentage of the membership who for various reasons dont have paid membership. all my purchases are when people either bumped or had a large enough volume of coins to sell to reach the free members. its been a range of feedback scores from down in the low teens to up in the hundreds. and before you ask, my reason for not paying is budget, i feel i dont have the funds to buy enough to warrant the savings over the year.

thats not fair. i am sure the 3 year old tried their best on the coin and unlike RM actually stayed within the lines!

just because the Ts and Cs are the the same from different providers it doesnt mean they will show up on your statement the same from the same retailer or different ones. ie tesco treat RM annual bunc and proof sets and silver proof coins as normal purchases. but they treat silver 1oz coins and sovereigns and brits as bullion therefore you are buying cash and fees apply. the fact that you are buying cash on the annual sets "isnt the same" apparently. I have then bought 1ozs and sovereigns from Blayer and BPP etc with no extra fees. The reason - they are classed as a stamp and collectable retailers, ( not coin or bullion dealers presumably ) Chards are debit cards only, possibly partly for the cc fees but also to avoid this confusion. As they said on Hill St Blues - be careful out there!

wouldnt be surprised if when they releases the circulating set they also release a super duper limited edition proof, one time only, only one woman driver honest guv, 13 coin set for about £250 cough reduced coughbulshitcough so instead of £160/170 for the full proof set. its going to be £105 for the commemorative ( and even then not all of the ones to be issued in 23 ) proofs now and the circulating proofs later.

seems legit apart from two negs and most of the positives seem to be him buying stuff. 9999 and serial nbr(?) looks weird on the half crown. and he comes from kirkcaldy

they have released another 2023 set ???? 😂

i do like their lay a way option. pay in jan, receive in june 😂

wow. what version is that and where and who do i throw my money at?

fecks sake. i suppose its better than taking the order and payment in january and posting it in may. wonder if they have had a change of mind about what coins to go into the full set? However, the cynic in me thinks its more about tempting people into buying the 5 set then the full 10/11/12/13 set when its released alter in the year. found the post i was looking for - the hogworts wont be in the 23 set but the rest should be. unless they announce the £1 design in 23 and release in 24. new coins coming in 23 Albus Dumbledore 50p Hogwarts School 50p NHS 75th 50p Windrush Generations 50p Edward Jenner £2 JRR Tolkien £2 Flying Scotsman £2 King Charles 75th £5 New £1 coin still confirmed 2023

if it works for john wick. it works for me - concrete in the basement

think the bars might be thai. but the photos arent great

i wonder how many of the competition would be willing to take on the universal delivery RM must offer? they love to cherry pick the profitable items, but the last mile for letters? havent seen anyone else willing to offer that bit yet.

this is the bit i dont understand. the package will have an address it is to go to and an addresss it is to come from. I fail to see how they dont know what to do with parcels. send them or return them!

"I lost all my savings in one Chinese investment scam in the second half of 2021 (i.e. pig butchering) and ended with a loan. The one who would purchase the bar would help me to repay the loan and start again in my life from the beginning. " seems legit

given the new memorial releases today, you may need a bigger thread!

who the eff was that? postage charge? internet charge????? ryanair started an auction house?

just to add my tuppence. dont break up a set! i hate seeing these proofs/coins of whatever denomination or metal being sold singly on ebay with no coa or :ahem: proof then i just dont trust it is what it says it is. i understand the reasoning in a way but those those who collect whole sets of buncs/proof/silver proof/gold proof/silver brits/gold brits/sovs (me) will curse the breakers in more ways than can be imagined.

i got a little john from silver trader that he classed as seconds or grade b - cant remember which, but when i got it, i only noticed a couple of small marks, nowhere near as bad as he mentioned it could be. just not found anything cheap enough to buy again from him since!

ignore the conspiracy folk. its not random but driven by the various bank algothithms. each bank will have their own, so starling will be different from rbs from lloyds to santander etc. as the recipient, you wont be told it was blocked. generally if it was you making the payment. it may be your turn, it may be your spending pattern - too much, outside the usual category etc, it may be the recipient and so on. what the bank employee sees will be dependent on the software used. ie if its card transaction it can usually tell if the pin was used, card not present, phone transaction, if through online banking did the person sign on with the normal ip address, how they logged on etc the security questions can often be the hardest even for the genuine customer to get through - card limit, last few transactions etc I did it for a few years and my attitude after a few days was basically why is this fecking person fecking lying to me when trying to claim someone had stolen their card and used it to make a cash withdrawal using the pin but then putting the card back in the wallet without them noticing. you quickly had a gut feeling who was genuine and who wasnt. yelling at me saying you had a train or bus to catch usually resulted in slow system or a bad line 😈 problem is that quite a few times the anti fraud text messages asking people to confirm if something was real and could be released automatically, were thought of as fraud by customers and ignored. so no reply was received and the transaction was blocked!
