Was hoping for some 1st generation cardboard, but all 9 gold mercs came back SP70 in a

Blue box. image

    Got my two coin submission back yesterday, and was wondering how it would be packaged.

    Got my first cardboard!

    It will actually be easier to re-use than the blue boxes. I threw away about 10 or so of the blue boxes recently, they take up a good bit of space.

    Hold it.



    Were these the same gold mercs that you were complaining about? That you had received poor quality from the mint?



    You SHOULD be disappointed image

    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

    It came in a Priority Mail Padded Flat Rate Envelope.
    I've got another submission pending with 10 coins, it may come differently.

    That's how I used to get orders with up to 4 coins or so returned to me.

    6 or more was usually in a box.

    That is just awful. If I were you I would just stop submitting.

    No, that was another thread - I just asked how many were being sent back. image
