Look what actually arrived today even though it was a day late from Chards!

Next day delivery don't make me laugh

Should offer my postage back at least?

I know you were promised next day delivery and they didn't post it in time to make that, but not everyone can do what they say all the time, things happen. Hopefully Lizzie will phone you to explain and they will do something about it.
Don't forget the postal cost will be the same whether it was next day or not, the service will be the same, special I presume.
I'm not sure why you are getting hung up about the next day promise, is it really that important to you or can't you abide any form of imperfection in anyone?
The best way to deal with these things is to address them at source and complain. Go to the top if necessary. Then you will see the measure of a company. Give them a chance to apologise and put it right before you write them off completely and muddy their name on a public forum.

Ive dealt with Rebnah before, he is a standup guy

Can't argue with someone else's POV but TBH If I was Chards, I'd refuse to sell you anything in the future anyway.

So they would refuse to deal with a customer for sharing my sales experience ?

So i received my new $20 Liberty head after 7 weeks of waiting, but she's going back

The US mint has had some quality issues lately.

[Chewy636]

Yes, unfortunately it's not perfect. I had phoned the dealer on Monday asking where it was because i had sat patiently for 7 weeks without hammering his door down. He actually had just received them that day but also said the US Mint had recalled them for quality issues, i'm thinking they may have had the same transportation problems as the Silver Krugs because the coin was packed separately outwith the coin case

I have two and both coins came in the case. If yours shipped out of the ogp they might have been looked at.

A 1/4 Queen's Beast Lion and Griffin from @GoldBenj (both MS69) and I'm delighted with both of them

But it was posted, which still costs money plus they have asked you to call them on Tuesday, 24hrs late and so stressed about it, I can't quite grasp the reason why, but I'd certainly not like to be an eBay seller that sells a coin to you and has landed 24hrs later even though it may have been posted on time. Sometimes the PO can also be at fault.......

 It was not the post.

The fact is I was given incorrect information!

Back to coins....

Some old gold and some new, some platinum and silver too?. 

A few gold quarter ounce QB Dragons/Griffins and 2016 Libertad proofs  (some for members on the Forum), along with a 2016 Perth mint sovereign. Will think about grading some of them in pursuit of 70s! Another ounce of Pt - this time the 2016 Austrian Philharmoniker, which I bought actually right on the price dip in early January....so well pleased with that, and a nice big coin.

Then silver - a stackers tube of 10 QB dragons, plus a few extras for capsules of the dragon and Griffin, and a slabbed Dragon.  Happy to report that no milky ones in the tube (I checked!). Shelled out the cash for a silver PF70 QB Lion one ounce proof, and a few more in boxes -  now I see why everyone goes gaga over this proof design ?. Some more irresistible 2016 Libertad silver proofs, and a few 2017 kooks (1 ouncers and a doorstop 10 ounce) and 2017 Britannias for good measure when the silver price dipped. 

The old gold: "mission accomplished" on the sovereign mintmark set as I just found a nice Ottawa C 1911 sov to complete the set. The Bombay I 1918 I picked up last week made me focus on that missing Canada one?!  1911 C by far the most common of the Canada years (1908-1919), but at 257,048 minted that is still a pretty low % out of the 40 million minted worldwide that year (numbers from goldsovereigns.co.uk). Got it along with a very nice 1912 London sovereign, and a 20 francs 1897 Lucky Angel.

Nice ones @KDave - and looks like a 1903 Sydney? Lower mintage than the London ones.  Can't quite make out if the 1908 has a mintmark or not....

I didn't notice the mint mark, you are correct Sydney 1903, thank you kindly for spotting that! I had to check the other and there is not enough wear for it to be anything but London mint. Cheers Lindeman.
