I think the lack of flipping is due anything no good for grading being returned.

[Paul]

Well we've seen one ms70 so hopefully our delayed ones are to be perfect (maybe?)

 

[Clockpuncher]

I do hope so

Got an email from the mint today saying they would be dispatching my replacement shortly and also bunging me the money back for the postage of the dud I originally received. Fingers cross my second gold will be a decent one and not need to be returned again

[CadmiumGreen]

Returned my 1/4 oz proof...went out the door yesterday. Let’s see which is received first, the replacement or the third in the series.

[Clockpuncher]

Third attempt at a 1 oz proof silver arrived today. 

Reverse looked OK, minor dent to the mirror finish below the car but was going to live with it as they've been grinding me down

Had a look at the obverse - two greasy finger marks which somebody has tried to then wipe off either side of Lizzie!

Cheers Royal Mint and your amazing quality control. Yet another return 😭

Maybe @Paul was right and I did get somebody else's return 😂 fingers crossed for the gold...

How can they hold out Proof as their highest quality work and deliver 💩 like this?

 

[SilverMike]

Sorry to read @Clockpuncher - the smudges are terrible, cant believe you’ve been sent it (well, I can but you know what I mean😩)

[BrumChris]

Does anyone else find that there's no joy in receiving a RM delivery now? I just feel apprehension for how much will be wrong/damaged.

Yes, I have customer services on speed dial now.....

I just ordered one of these this morning, they State still awaiting stock, yet a few hours later today I had a order dispatched notification in my email inbox. 
 

I’m hoping it does not have the same imperfections as @Clockpuncher but who knows, I had a difficult time deciding what I wanted to buy for my Birthday and ended up buying all three items (one of which was a bank note so not worth mentioning much about but a very scarce bank note it was). 
 

im probably thinking that they are trying to get rid of the returns before they sell the freshly minted stock, so if you have returned that coin there is a high chance I might end up with it, so I suppose we are all on the return stock merry go round. 
 

So a United States Mint 2020 Silver Proof set (with Reverse Proof Jefferson Nickel) and this lotus esprit 1oz coin Has been quite a good autumn for me so far, and another set of coins I’m going to send to Numi for grading. 
 

saying that I wish I could use the backyardbond code on the coins and have the it covered the whole bond range.

I see all the 007 prices have gone up now on the RM website. For example :

2oz silver proof £250 (was £235)

1/4 gold proof £620 (was £590)

Good thing I bought at least some as a group of 3.

No doubt to account for returns postage...

I have just seen this, it was £88 for the 1oz Silver Proof,  I was lucky to purchase super early in the morning before they raised the prices later in the day yesterday. As a plus I have the slight bonus of being 1 hour ahead of the U.K. now I’m in Germany. 
 

To be honest I don’t think I would have made the purchase after the price went up I don’t think I could have justified making that kind of purchase at that price for just 1oz even if it was proof. 

[Rll1288]

strangely enough the pricing to buy the 3 coin set is still showing as £88.00 and is in stock

[Clockpuncher]

No 2oz gold proof for me!  ☹️

Got the below email on the 30th, but refund issued a couple of days before!!??🤔

 

Dear Mr Clockpuncher

Thank you for your e-mail, apologies for the delay in my reply.

 I can confirm receipt of your return and replacement will be sent shortly, a refund of £xx will be issued back to you for postage.

 

 Kind Regards

XXXXX

Will they not just take payment again when they send out the replacement? I think my payment has been charged 3 times now and then reversed and I haven’t received anything yet. 
And they must like you because they’ve put lots of kisses on the bottom of the email.

That would be great if they did, albeit the lady I spoke to today said that it was sold out and there was no way they would be able to give me a replacement - which directly contradicts the last person I spoke with who said they were restriking them and that mine would be on its way soon!

The mind boggles

Very confusing as you have it in an email that a replacement will be sent out. 🤷‍♂️

Could this mean coin 3 will get delayed also?

Dont think so as I got an email last week saying my next coin was being sent this week... I'm expecting it to arrive any day next week.

[Paul]

Sent RM an email today for update on 2oz gold Wet Nellie - expected reply time stated 3-5 working days

3-5 days ! jeez in my own business all clients get replies or call returned in under 30 mins

Nothing would surprise me - useless company 

If it wasn't for the chances of banking in some potential profits in future - i wouldn't use them
