Ok, here's yet ANOTHER BST story.....

NotSureNotSure Posts: 2,982 ✭✭✭
......yet this one eneds up with a more than happy ending. I was semi-actively seeking a few of those 1981 Assay roundsm from silver stored at the San Fran office. Well, Type2 digs it out of about 6 pages (as I said, wasn't actively seeking them, but did want a few). Type2 responds, says he's got 2...one is obviously an off centered strike, so, I think 'pretty cool' to have an error. The 'coins' show up while I'm up NH. I get home today, already missing the first quarter and a half of the 1pm games. Then I spy T2's package on the table. I open the package up, and turns out BOTH coins are error rounds. On top of that, he sends me two 'freebies', coins he just felt like throwing in. One is a G 1891 Seated Lib quarter, the second, an 1876-CC Seated Lib quarter. Given I'm no millionaire, these are now going to be the base of the new Dansco Seated Lib quarter book I'm going to put together.

We hear all the time about when things go bad on BST deals, do, on occasion, hear when things go right, but Type2 really went out of his way, IMO. Just a great guy to deal with, and through my personal experience with him, a not just a great guy to deal with, but a great guy, in general, and I thought his exceptional generosity should be noted.

Thanks, T2!!!!!!
I'll come up with something.

    Ok, now it's ready...didn't capture everything I wanted to say, 'cause I had to get it out after hitting the enter button with nothing written, but I think you can all get the gist of it. Thanks again, T2!!

    Definitely sounds like Type2 is a Class Act! image
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    I've made many BST transactions and they've all been great.

    Very cool!

    Have done lots of business on the BST (both buying and selling - both on the coin and currency boards), and never once had a deal go bad.

    Fortunately, I've never had a bad BST deal, all gone well. Always been treated as I'd hoped to be treated, as that's how I treat (try like hell) when selling. Not that ANY of my transactions have been bad, but T2 just went way above the call. Matter of fact, I've missed the rest of the 1pm games, looking at my raw coins, and I have to be honest, the 1876-CC Seated Lib quarter T2 sent me, it's now my favorite raw coin. 1876, carson City, floated out west, it's a coin I REALLY wish could speak.

    Class acts on both ends of that deal.

    Ricc is a great person to deal with. He's a cherrypicker with a heart of gold

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
