ALL COINS BEING BID ON ARE THE IDENTICAL ONES SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS.
I HAVE DECIDED NOT TO RAISE MY SHIPPING RATES, EVEN WITH THE RECENT POSTAL RATE INCREASE.
I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS SO FAR SENDING COINS TO ITALY SO FAR, SO I WILL CONTINUE TO ACCOMODATE BUYERS FROM THERE. HOWEVER, BUYERS FROM ITALY ARE TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE TO INSURE ANY PACKAGES SHIPPED THERE.
PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT A STORE, BUT A COLLECTOR JUST LIKE YOU. I AM SELLING OFF A PART OF MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, COINS I HAVE ENJOYED LEARNING ABOUT OVER THE YEARS. AS SUCH, I INTEND TO KEEP EXPENSES AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. LOW STARTING PRICES, AND NEVER A RESERVE PRICE. I RESPECT A PERSON WHO ASKS A HIGHER STARTING BID, THAN SOMEONE WHO ASKS A LOW STARTING BID WITH A HIGH RESERVE PRICE. I NEVER BID ON COINS WITH A RESERVE. SORRY...JUST MY LITTLE SOAP BOX SPEECH...NOW IT'S OFF MY CHEST! NO CHARGE FOR "HANDLING", AND SHIPPING IS JUST THE COST OF A STURDY ENVELOPE PLUS POSTAGE. I WILL MAIL ITEMS WITHIN 2-3 DAYS (OR SOONER), SO YOU DON'T NEED EXPRESS OR OVERNIGHT OR ANYTHING FANCY OR EXPENSIVE. IF YOU DECIDE YOU DON'T WANT THE ITEM ONCE YOU'VE GOT IT IN YOUR HAND, YOU HAVE 14 DAYS TO RETURN IT, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, JUST RETURN IT IN THE SHAPE YOU GOT IT IN. ALL YOU PAY IS THE COST TO RETURN IT, NO EXTRA CHARGES LIKE RE-LISTING FEES, ENVELOPES, RE-STOCKING OR WHATEVER. I TRUST MY ITEMS AND MY ABILITY TO WORK WITH DECENT PEOPLE. DON'T BELIEVE ME? CHECK MY FEEDBACK! HAS EVERY TRANSACTION BEEN PERFECT? NOPE! BUT BEING REASONABLE AND TRYING TO SEE THINGS FROM ANOTHER'S VIEW HAS WORKED SO FAR. IF YOU'VE MADE IT THIS FAR, I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING INTERESTING, AND GOOD LUCK ON YOUR BIDDING!
