    on August 04, 2022 I sent 4 coins to Bunker Hill rare coin on consignment. Within 1 month they sent me a check for one of the coins. The other 3 coins, I have not received any money for despite several conversations with ***** ******, a broker for the company, that the coins had been sold and should receive a check shortly. Calling every month the same promise that I would receive a check shortly never came to fruition. The last time I spoke with ***** was in January of 2024. Subsequent calls weekly after that with a voice mail to leave a message with general and consignment departments with no return calls.

    I have not heard from the business in response to my complaint. in the last 2&1/2 months. Previously, there was a receptionist that would answer the phone. Since the beginning of March, only a voice mail has answered the phone and I have left numerous messages the office in the Consignment mailbox and general mailbox. Likewise, **************** has not answered his cell phone and has not returned any calls.

Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

    I have not received the check for $6,000 owed me from Bunker Hill Rare Coin in *******  You told me you heard from Bunker Hill Rare Coin and they informed you that they would get the check for $6,000, in the mail the first week in April, todays date is April 12, 2024.  Please help me retrieve this money owed me. 

    soon as they send in full payment I would be paid. This is odd, three months after my coin was supposedly fully paid for by their client, I would be paid the end of January 2023, but now in March 2023, I am told this story. After more attempted communications with **. ***********************, I received an email on July 17, 2023 that Bunker Hill Rare Coin proposed to change the terms of the coin (1872) consignment to a purchase, changing the agreement back on February 17, 2022. Wm. *********************** stated, "We will mail the first payment this week." After many texts, phone calls and emails, I finally received the half payment for $6,000 on August 16, 2023, the check was dated July 17, 2023. The final payment of $6,000 has not arrived. Wm. ****************** said about this, "We have no money." I told him they did, as they sold my $12,000, they received the $6,000 they owe me.

    I was told two weeks ago that Bunker Hill Rare Coin would be putting the final payment of $6,000, for my $12,000 1872 gold coin, in the mail that day.  To date, I have not received this check.  Please help me retrieve this final payment as my coin had sold a couple years ago and they received full payment at that time.

    Thank you.
    Have a blessed day!
