My first experience!!! I packaged 70 coins & couriered them to Spain. They are at present held in the Kolkata airport! What to do??? Package ripped open. Shocking!!! Sickening!!! Any advice??? Anyone faced something similar???
You shall follow the rules of your national Post. Most probably you can find in their website how to send a claim in case of status of your letter hasn't changed for a long time.
My personal list of scammers from Numista: erniemix, yvain, CassTaylor
First off, you’re not suppose to send indian or foreign currencies through the post as per the postal rules. So you have no recourse to that extent unless you have a special licence to do so.
however, in the past, I have received notice from customs to come to the customs house in south Bombay and pay the duty for a package from the UK. They opened it in front of me and made their own assessment of the value of the coins (mix of foreign coins) for which I paid the duty they asked.
it would probably be a similar case and you can await the notice. But if not, then that was the risk you took when you agreed to swap.
Hopefully you’ll have good luck on your side and it will resolve itself, else something to bear in mind for the future
