A Post About Something Teletrade Just Did That Really Impressed Me & Was Great For The Hobby!!

I recently prepared a very large consignment for Teletrade (hundreds of coins) and within that consignment was a number of "70" grade Silver Eagles (graded by a top service). The following week when I was consigning additional coins, Gil (I have said before this guy is the superstar of the entire Teletrade operation) handed back to us a small handful of these 70 grade silver eagles with a note that the coins had spots on them and would not be acceptable for auction by Teletrade. Indeed, some of the coins had very minor spotting issues (unfortunately typical for the silver eagle series).
I could not have been happier! Let's hope every auction company out there begins to show a stronger interest in making sure the buying public gets decent coins for the grade especially where problems on coins are OBVIOUS for the grade. I am not aware of any other auction company right now that would have done what Teletrade just did, but if they are out there, I would also love to hear from you.
GREAT JOB TELETRADE!

When dealing with them (emails/calls), I have found them to be top notch as well. As you mentioned, Gil is great to work with. I've had a few emails with him and his customer service was tops!
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

If they want to pass on the no question problem coins that collectors would be upset about buying after the fact ... as I said, that is great for the hobby!

I don't want to air this here. I have already had a discussion with him.
I'm just pointing out that his customer service is not up to par in my books. He knows my opinion and he had an opportunity to change it but decided not to. I've been a customer of TT back to the video days in 1986, but his call has cost them most of my business. Ian, with great collections has picked up the slack.

It's great to know that Teletrade weeds out spotty 70 eagles. I wish more dealers/etc. did. I started collecting silver eagles, and abandoned hopes of completing the set after purchasing more than one 70 with spots. I was able to return those, but the hassle turned me off.
