My name is ***************************. I ordered a promotional product form Littleton Coin company for $1. They sent the dollar bill I ordered. And they sent the coins on approval. I sent the coins on approval back to Littleton coin and kept my item I paid for. I also included a written note asking to be removed from the coins on approval system. A week or 2 later they sent me another coins on approval. I didnt order. I sent it back with a hand written notice that I was not interested in any more coins on approval. They sent me another coins on approval of which had a total purchase price of $132.60. This time Littleton coin provided me with no return envelope and no return postage. I sent them a email attempting to get paid postage and a return envelope. I was told I would get a envelope one postage sent to me. And I never received anything. Now I get a call from a collection agency attempting to collect on $132.60. Littleton Coin I ask that this be resolved. This is ridiculous.Business response

Unfortunately I do not have exact dates of occurrences. Over a year ago I made the mistake of signing up for the Littleton Coin Company Coins-******************** In the beginning, the coins they sent me seemed reasonably priced for my budget and I paid for them. However, as the months proceeded the coin shipment prices increased. I returned one shipment and they kept billing me for it. I contacted them and told them that the coins were returned. They said they never received the return. I payed for that lose. After a while it got to the point that I could not afford all these coins they were sending me. I called the company and told a gentleman that I wanted to cancel my service. After trying to talk me out of it, he said he would cancel. A few months went by and the coin shipments started again. Stupidly I again payed for them and wrote them to quit sending me the coins. The last shipment I received recently I returned using their flimsy plastic return envelope. You could obviously tell there were coins inside. Since, I have received two bills for the coins I returned. Someone probably stole the coins or the company gets the returns and tells you they didn't and continue to bill you. I'm tired of dealing with this company.Business response

Offered a promotional $2 bill for $1. Company sent multiple other items that require returning to them or I will be charged. They signed me up for some monthly trial that includes shipping more items that require payment or return. This was not clearly stated on the offer or site. They've either purposely buried this info or have completely not provided this info to the customers. A family member ordered the $2 the same day and had the same thing happen. The confirmation email says nothing about this either. Extremely deceptive company. Charge if the items aren't returned is about $30. Also, the offer is no longer accessible to view now a few days after ordering on the day the surprise package arrived.Business response

My concern is the misleading practice that precipitated this interaction. If the intention isn't to mislead customers, then the **** was missed by their ****eting department. The trial selection requiring return was so non-obvious that both my father and I separately signed up for the $1 $2 bill offer and were both completely surprised by the inclusion of a selection of *********** in the envelope with the $2 bill in our mailboxes. We both immediately returned the unwanted additional items and we're not charged. I reported to the BBB in hopes that the company would reexamine their practices and in the future work harder to not (willfully or unwittingly) mislead customers. Thank you for your work and attention. I do not personally require any follow up. I am not a current of future Littleton customer after this interaction. Respectfully, ******Initial Complaint

Dear Kelli K***********
Thank you for contacting us and giving us an opportunity to respond to Mr. ********* complaint. As requested, we have not contacted him. I believe the matter is resolved.Mr. ******** contacted us by email on October 18, 2023 asking that he be canceled from our Coins on Approval service. There is no obligation to purchase with this service, and customers can cancel at any time. In our response, we assured him that we had canceled the service on his account. However, we failed to identify that the shipment he referred to was from his wife’s account, since his most recent order was in September 2021, and that our actions did not thoroughly address his concerns.
On December 27, 2023, Mr. ******** emailed us again requesting to cancel all shipments sent to him. We responded asking whether the shipment he referred to was sent on a separate account at the same address, and encouraging the account holder to contact us directly. Until Mr. ******** confirmed the shipment (invoice *****031) was from his wife’s account, we were unaware of Ms. ********* medical challenges. This request was directed to her personal account representative, and due to the holidays, this had yet to be handled.
Subsequent to receiving this complaint, we have honored the request to cancel her Coins on Approval service and remove her from our mailing list. We have cleared invoice *****031 from her account and encourage her to keep the coins with our compliments. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

As promised, we included a trial selection from our Coins on Approval service, introducing her to the hobby of coin collecting and the many services that we provide. There is absolutely no obligation to purchase with this monthly service. There should have been a brochure explaining our approval program as well as a postage paid label to return the selection of coins, should she decide she was not interested.
After 45 days without receiving the trial selection in return or payment, we sent a letter in October, 2023, as a reminder of the Coins on Approval sent. We sent a second reminder letter in November, 2023.
Subsequent to receiving this complaint, we cleared the trial selection from Ms. *****’s account, canceled the service, and removed her from our mailing list. We encourage her to keep the coins sent with our compliments. We apologize for the frustration caused.
For over 75 years, we have worked hard to deliver value, quality, selection and service to coin collectors in every state. We value our reputation in the industry, and our ethics and honesty are unsurpassed. We are truly disappointed when we have an unhappy customer.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Yvonne B******
Manager of Customer Service
