Littleton Coin Offer

Postby lewbo » Wed Oct 05, 2011 9:17 pm

1982 George Washington 90% silver half dollar commemorative for $9.95 with free shipping.
www.littletoncoin.com/specials code 2EV601

Looks like a good deal, below spot and seem to sell above that price on ebay. Let me know what you think, of course you will have to cancel a club selection later on.

****, site wouldn't accept my VISA gift card (seriously, why does the expiration date on that site cut off at 2017??), so did with my debt card. Got one.

Can I get more in separate purchases?

Thanks, I just placed an order I check their ads in the paper every Sunday, but I didn't see one this past week. Also, haven't ordered from one of their ads in a few months. Almost ordered a set of Mercury Dimes and an uncirculated eagle two and a half weeks ago. Glad I waited.

Cesario, why would you want to buy anything other than this deal? $59 for an ASE? Almost all of their prices are outrageous, the only good ones are the weekly deals they feature in the paper.

Any idea why it's so cheap? Just seems kind of fishy to me at just under 20x face. It's not an amazing deal, but they run at least 1-2 ads per week. I guess the people who see the ads dont know any better and buy those $60 ASEs.

It signs you up for their monthly coin club, or whatever it's called. Each month, you get several overpriced coins in the mail, which you can keep and be charged or return free of charge. Or you can immediately opt out, which is what everyone here does.

Didn't know they still did that. Like I said earlier I haven't ordered anything in months, but my last couple of orders they didn't send anything else. However, I remember they did on 2 uncirculated $1 coins a while ago.

Thanks getting a money order today and getting one. I called them and they said the trial coins come with prepaid shipping labels to return them so Ill just send them back the day I get it shouldn't even have to go to the post office just repackage and stick in mail box. Not too much hassle to get silver under spot. Comes out to 11 grams of silver for $10 shipped. :P

That would make more sense.. I've got 2 addresses I could send one to (PO Box, Street), do you think I could order another with the same cc and same account to a different address?

Awesome, thanks for posting this! I've had a visa gift card sitting around forever with 11 dollars on it. Been looking forever for something to spent it on. Now I need to find something for $1.05 with free shipping, lol. Thanks again, can't wait to have another good laugh when I get the coins on approval!

They have another one also where you get a walking lib, franklin and jfk 90% half for 19.95 plus 4.95 shipping. You have to call 1-800-645-3122 and use code HDDA to get it. I did this a few weeks back and I just returned my first selection of a frankin and 1969 jfk that they wanted 70 bucks for the pair.

Just did it now, had to sign up for the half dollar club, but I'll quit that as soon as I get the first coins. We should start posting the weekly Littleton deals in this thread from now on. I'll find them in the paper this weekend and scan and upload them.

Thanks again.

Did you just cancel and re-order or did you use different addresses?

What was the ASE deal? I know a few weeks ago they were charging $42.95 for one, cheaper than my LCS at the time, but nothing amazing.

They had a deal going for $39 shipped and another for $37.95 shipped. Pretty sure there was a thread on here a while back.

I ordered some, my wife ordered some, and my mom got 1. :D The halves we each got one.

The other coins were put directly in the mail then I emailed them asking to be taken off the list.

Very easy process.

Anybody see an offer in the paper today? Wasn't one from Littleton in mine, there was one from a place in NY though. Some Mississippi quarter stamped with Elvis. Don't think it had any silver in it, so it's worthless to me.

Got my coin today. I suggested in the mail back comment form on back that I was only interested in silver at spot prices, otherwise I will cancel. See how that pans out.

I cancelled my memberships. After the first trial coins the coins cost to return. Just a heads up if you didn't cancel and are waiting for the next shipment. Expect $17 mercury dimes and such !!!!

I told them the coins were priced too high, so they sent me a letter explaining that, while I might have seen the coins cheaper elsewhere, their grading and service eans it's best to shop through them.
