Im writing this Guide in response to a note a friend once emailed me,saying that selling coins from the territory where i live in isnt considered safe and secure for western buyers,including the Americas and Europe, the reason is that buyer feel that purchasing coins from other countries might not be a good idea,and unsafe even.....
but few days after i was thinking about this, and i came to a conclusion that buying from some countries outside the Americas and Europe might be a good idea in fact and VERY SECURE,,,why is that?
let me make it short,i know you have some auctions you dont want to miss, but the reason is that shipping via reigstered mail from Bahrain for example costs 1.3us$ only, while on the other hand if buying a coin from the States or Europe and you need this coin to be sent registered to you then you have to pay 10$ for registration,
registration means your package wont be lost,and if its lost then the seller will be paid by the post office in his country and hence he will refund your payment or replace the item for you....
so you still think that buying from other countries isnt secure?
be the judge ;)
