Poor & unprofessional packing - irresponsible attitude
Bought 4 lots comprising a total of twelve 19th century bronze medals in their recent auction.
Used their packing & shipping service indoor which charged GBP 15 for packaging in addition to GBP 73 postage.
Instead of wrapping each medal separately, they simply put the lots in their plastic bags (thus up to 4 medals per bag) into a poorly stuffed, thin and small cardboard box.
Receiving the package, I could hear the medals jingle inside.
No wonder that the medals suffered fresh marks and scratches which considerably diminish their value.
A complaint with photos showing the damage was simply ignored.
