A 5% ($10 minimum) restocking fee will be charged for all auction returns (regardless of payment method).

Sorry, we cannot accommodate layaways on Internet auction purchases without prior agreement.

Layaways


Our layaway and extended payment programs can help with a convenient payment plan to acquire that bigger coin on your wish list.

The use of either payment plan must be pre-approved prior to bidding, but we're here to help. Contact in the Credit Dept, or one of the guys in the and we'll discuss your options.

Trade-Ins


We love trades!

Bidding Tips


  • Bid Strong & Bid Early. We highly recommend that you bid your highest number early. Tie bids will be given to the first bid received. If you are unsure of the current market value of any coins in this sale, contact one of our numismatists. We are here to help.

  • Your highest bid is kept hidden from all other bidders. Once the reserve has been met on a particular lot, your bid will only be increased if another bidder raises you. For example, if the 'reserve' is $1000 and you bid $1250; your highest bid will be only be raised to $1000. If another bidder bids $1100 on the same lot, your bill will increase (by the next increment) to $1150, and he/she will be notified that they have been outbid. Likewise, if the bid is placed by another party to $1500, the highest bid posted will be $1300. Once a reserve has been met, you will only pay one increment over the next highest bidder.

  • Your On-line Bids are Binding. Please be careful placing your on-line bids as they are binding and you are obligated to purchase any and all winning lots. If you feel that you have made any bids in error, please email the DLRC Auction group immediately so we can correct the error. You cannot reduce your bid by bidding a lower amount later. Where possible, reserves may be lowered during the auction on some items.
