2022 soverign swap shop

[apachebleu]

 So, with all the damaged sovereigns and the potential for more ****ery down the road there was an idea mooted on that thread by @GoldDiggerDave where we pool our resources and swap coins to get perfect sets rather than loads of us returning sets.

 If anyone is sending there set back to the mint could they consider swapping good coins with fellow members here?

 

 @BackyardBullion made an offer on the other thread looking for a quintuple with a very generous bonus for anybody who can help

 I am looking for a double, my offer would be that I pay all postage costs and I will chuck in 50 quid for your trouble.

 If you plan to get your set refunded or replaced then you can make a little profit on this thread and help out other forum members.

 

 I understand that I'm not exactly a long standing member here so not sure if I have the reputation to start this however we just have to see...maybe even a more trusted/known member may act as an intermediary??

I would be happy to act as an intermediary for anyone who goes through with a swap!

 Pm sent, I think we can work something out

I have a feeling this will work out very well for both of us!

Very good idea guys, TSF community spirit wins again!

[BackyardBullion]

If this all works out just fine for everyone involved then this will be such a nice story to share on YouTube to champion this incredible community

Great idea 💡 

[apachebleu]

 I think we are both in unique situations that allow us to help each other...I'd rather have got a swap for my double but this will be the next best thing and certainly wouldn't be an outcome I could have hoped for without this forum

[BackyardBullion]

@apachebleu Trying to get hold of you buddy, check your messages!

[apachebleu]

 Hate to leave this on a cliffhanger, we are all sorted. @BackyardBullion has his quintuple and he is doing me a favour in return that until I found this group I couldn't have trusted someone to do.

 Top bloke to deal with, no messing around with postage on the exchange as he knew I was in a hurry due to work commitments....tried not to fanboy too much speaking to him seeing as his videos have got me into this whole scene 😅

 Cheers to the community here for helping solve problems, maybe moderators could look in to a section for members to swap around coins from sets etc. To help mitigate the mints errors? Maybe an oppurtunity for someone to make a few quid as a middleman?

I am over the moon happy now I have a stunning Quintuple!

I will do everything in my power to help you get a perfect one in due course.

If it is any consolation I had an interesting conversation with my account manager today after she rang me to sort out my own set (I had fired off an email the other day about it). She said they would always look to remint where possible to get these sets complete for people - how true that will be is in the balance but I think it is a good attitude.

That’s a great idea.

Hi folks - weird one perhaps! I have print number 72, and wondered if anyone had print number 31 or 32 that they’d be willing to swap? Happy to find some silver or something to throw in as a thank you? 😄

Sure, no problem, but please use the trade section of the forum if you have an item you are looking to exchange. There is a tag prefix for 'exchange' there is also one for 'sale or exchange'

The trade section can be found here: https://www.thesilverforum.com/forum/12-buy-sell-trade/ where trade topics can be created

Hello, I take the opportunity of this topic to ask for an exchange of a half sovereign 2022, of course with postal fees paid+ 1oz silver coin for service. Please PM me. Thanks !

* Request created in the UK trade section
