Auction disappointment

JCMhouston

And I haven't even seen the coins yet, actually that's the disappointment. I called Heritage to check on the lots I won in the Jan. 3 auction since it's been two weeks and I haven't seen them yet. They haven't even shipped yet.

JCM,
I received my Heritage auction booty today !! .... or maybe it was Friday since the post office is closed today.

Zohar

Same here, have not received any yet.

Just got an e-mail that Ponterio's win is in transit.

This is an area that Heritage needs some improvement on. It's been my one and only complaint with their operation.

wybrit

They take a long time to ship (and even longer to pay consignments).

There are three areas they need improvment on. The third is auction pictures.

Still waiting on this little piece.

They won't be in today's mail.
There's no mail today.

They seem to ship banknotes quicker than coins in my experience. I bought a banknote in the banknote auction that has shipped and is waiting at my post office but the doors are barricaded. But the coins, they show up as paid for but who knows whence they shall have shipped.

Zohar

Someone must have read the thread, I just received an e-mail that the shipment went out.

I got mine last week via FedEx.

and even longer to pay consignments

I'm curious about this comment because I have consigned to Heritage numerous times over the years and they have always paid me on time. Yes, they do wait until the last possible day of the 45-day period to mail me my check but they state that right up front so I can plan on it. If they're taking longer than 45 days to mail you a check, I would certainly complain to them about it.

45 days is too long IMO.

I talked to them and explained I was going to Zurich next week, and needed the coins in before I left. I got an email a few minutes ago they had shipped Fedex.

I'm with Wybrit on the payment terms, 45 days is way to long.

Have a nice trip. Skiing?

Business unfortunately, have to meet with a small oil company for a couple of days, then up to Aberdeen for a day of meetings. I don't even have time to go visit coin shops or museums.

wybrit

Did the pieces arrive yet? Mine probably won't show up for another week.

Your company needs to get its priorities straight, JCM!

MacCrimmon

Aberdeen??? You Suck™

Zurich??? You Suck™ even more!!!

JCMhouston

No coins yet, but they are scheduled to show up today via Fedex.

Well the first batch from the 3 January auction made it today, still waiting for the pieces from the 11 Jan. auction. I'm a happy camper, they look better in hand than the auction photos.

wybrit

they look better in hand than the auction photos.

No surprise there.

I'm still waiting for my Jan 11 wins too.

Zohar

Mine came in as well and look much better in hand.

Silvereagle82

Zohar ... they do look nice indeed

Mine haven't even shipped yet, but I got the paper money that I won in a later auction.

I received my coins last week or the week before but I am still waiting for the Jan. 12 2010 auction coin.
