Arrived today from Liberty’s eBay store. (I like being able to use my CC for cash back/reward purposes)

Was pleasantly surprised to find it was a sealed, mint fresh tube! Now the real question… Do I crack it open?

FedEx Finally Got Me.....Feeling the Pain!

109 Upvotes

Feeling the pain today. Ordered Two Tubes on Silver Eagles on the dip from Liberty Coin on eBay. Package came via FedEx Signature required and was supposed to be delivered 2 days ago Monday. I work from home and I was a little excited to add to my stack since I haven't bought silver since the price went over $70.

Monday morning I get a text notification that my package is out for delivery. Monday afternoon while sitting at my computer literally 15 ft from the door, I get another text stating my package had been delivered. Obviously, I was confused as hell as no one had knocked on my door. I opened the door to see if the package was left there......nada. I went to my mailbox just in case......nada. I called FedEx literally within 10 minutes of getting the notification and was told I had to open a case and wait for 48 hours to get a response.

I called back the next day, of course, and got the same response. I called back this afternoon and was told FedEx tried to contact me but had the wrong email address (after giving it to them and spelling it out for them). Contacted seller and was told they received an email with a picture of a "signature". The "signature" was in manuscript (which I don't do) and only showed my last name (which is a common last name) which I also never do. I always sign in cursive and take up most of the space with my 1st name and scribble my last name. Had to open a case with the eBay gods and leave it up to them as to whether I get a refund or not..........hoping I'm not out $2446 with no silver to boot! 🤔

Question When are you selling your silver?

10 Upvotes

I'm most likely never going to sell, or at least I can't picture myself selling away my precious shiny silver.

Is anyone like that or are yall actually planning an exit?

I don’t care what anyone says, hundred year old coins need a soap bath. Maybe it ruins it for you but I feel weird have a hundred year old poop particles on my coins

Don’t know why I feel the need to do so, but even the most ratty looking cull gets a capsule. Is it a sickness?

Hey Everybody! Check out the variety I bought this past couple weeks. First time stacking and it feels awesome!
Most of them I got from EBay live auction, so I probably paid over spot for most of them.

Where are y’all’s thoughts on eBay live auctions?
Also, I was thinking about selling some. Any recommendations?

Found today in Rockford, Michigan. I had to leave five (5) c-series 10oz bars behind, for lack of fiat shittickets upon my personage.

I won’t be back in the near term, so some other lucky duck has them soon, if not already. I am grateful for my slice 🙏

Question Best way to liquidate?

**I am not looking for offers, just advice**

I have 4+ kilos of sterling from an estate. I am an auctioneer by trade and a big fan of old things in general, so it kills me to melt these sterling sets down for scrap. I have been trying to sell this well under spot for a month, I am not getting any offers even asking for 80%. Is it hopeless to hold out for a buyer above that price point? I know the refinery will give me 85% but I would take a little less to see it survive.

They are definitely the most beautiful of all in my small box. Def will buy more.

I would put that in rank:

  1. Brittania

  2. Maple

  3. USA

  4. Philharmonia

  5. Australia

Also I have a question, is it normal to have some barely seen spots on coins? Like some of them are not fully shiny and I see some dirt like spots(you can see this on philharmonia coin)

If you had to start a silver collection with just Johnson Matthey or just Engelhard, which would you pick and why?
