+Big JohnP Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Been reading the mail for the past few days and noticed quite a few seem to have lost or nearly lost some coins because they were sent in a regular envelopes. For all new people shipping out coins in the mail, this shows why it is a "NO-NO". Regular envelopes are too thin and are not made for this kind of use. The only way to go is to use bubble-pack padded mailers of good quality. And as an added protection, I even sandwiche the coins between two thin pieces of cardboard taped together so the coins don't slide around and slit the edges on the mailer. Edges are also taped so nothing can slide out. So far, I have never had a coin that was lost during shipping. Quote Link to comment

+Marky Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Our Team4HappyCats order arrived today ripped, with one of the coins hanging out of the envelope. Somehow, it didn't slide all the way out! *Whew* Both coins were okay. I guess we were lucky. --Marky Quote Link to comment
+Westwood Goods Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I got a reply from Team 4 Happy Cats the same night I sent an e-mail about my coins. They apologized and said they would take care of it. Quote Link to comment
