<< <i>Mr Potatohead, your business philosophy works for you, and mine works for me. Thank you for your interest in mine All suppositions are just that. In your scenario, this alleged person would not be a customer, but a thief. How could he be a customer if he were lying and stealing ? >>
No, in my scenario, the alleged person is not a liar or a thief- he believes the coin was misdescribed and he has stolen nothing. He's done no more than the OP has done- insisted that a new condition be added to the transaction.
I read these forums in order to learn something. Sometimes you can't learn something unless you're willing to un-learn something you thought was true, but isn't.
I certainly learned a lot from this thread.
I wish everyone had the same attitude. How someone can blow off such excellent advice is beyond my comprehension.

So- as he's the customer, is he right? >>
This is a tough one. I guess I would treat the customer with care until he's happy, and would not describe a coin for what it is not, I would describe it for what it is. My policy is such that if one is not happy with the purchase I would appreciate they return it ASAP for a full refund ASAP. And until he's happy, he's right...even if it causes me a loss. Of course, I've lost thousands of dollars in the contracting business with this attitude, it's still easy to adopt.

Wouldn't it be better to say "consider the advice"? Not all the advice is acceptable some is not even rational. >>
It would be better if you'd edit your post to say "100".
