On February 14, 2024 I ordered precious metals from JMBullion.com (attached). The order number was ***********. The transaction amount was in the amount of USD 21,613.60 and was an ACH transaction from my banking institution. On February 15, 2024 the funds were sent to JMBullion (see attached). On February 22, 2024 I received an email from JMBullion informing me that my order, despite having received the $21,613.60 was "cancelled" due to an internal review process, and that I was directed to initiate an ACH reversal from my bank. I called JMBullion on the phone and was told again to initiate an ACH reversal and that the operator could not be of any other assistance. I initiated the ACH reversal with my bank, on February 22, 2024. On February 29, 2024 my bank informed my that they would NOT refund me the $21,613.60 as the merchant had received the funds and my bank was not allowed to reverse the authorization. JMBullion committed to send me the PM listed in the attached document. They took the funds I send by ACH and cancelled my order and DID NOT send me the agreed upon Precious Metals. They have not made an attempt to resolve the matter other than telling me to ask my bank to initiate the ACH Reversal. The bank has refused to reverse the ACH funds sent to JMBullion. I expect a full refund of the funds receive by JMBullion.Business Response

On 16 February 2024 I ordered a coin online and paid by credit card; the shipping date was supposed to be 20 February. On 04 March, the coin hadn't been shipped yet so I called in the morning to find out its status. I was told they would check and call me back. Six hours later, I still hadn't heard back so I called again and was told the billing department was still reviewing the purchase, which I don't understand because they've had my money for 2 1/2 weeks. I asked for clarification, and was told that due to a charge back last year when an order of mine had been lost by ***** the current shipment was under review, even though I never received that order or was in any way responsible for its loss.Today is 04 March and they have had the full payment since 16 February, but refuse to ship the coin I ordered. I am considering legal action for theft of my money and for fraudulently taken it under the guise of a sale.Attached is the email confirmation for the purchase, purchase date, expected shipping date, order number, and amount paid.Business Response

1/28/2024, I initiated *** payment of $42,915.99 for a tube of 20, 1 oz American Gold Eagle coins with premium shipping.1/30/2024, the amount was draft drafted from my account.2/5/2024, I received email notification that *** had cancelled my order without explanation.Shortly after receiving notice of cancellation, I contacted *** support who confirmed the cancellation but said I would need to initiate and *** reversal with my bank in order to get my money back, which I promptly did.2/6/2024 I received a letter from my bank that the *** reversal could not be reversed because the transaction was valid and the funds already withdrawn.Shortly thereafter I again contacted *** support who told me I'd need to send them a copy of this letter from my bank in order to get my money back.1/20/2024, again contacted who said they would need to send me an agreement to sign before my money would be refunded. They emailed me the agreement which is a poorly drafted and over broad word salad relinquishing my right to complain about (among other things) the refund itself. I told them I would need to speak with a lawyer before signing but was curious what would happen if I didn't and they confirmed that my money would not be refunded until I signed.1/21/2024, I have been advised by a lawyer to not sign the *** agreement which they require to refund my money, and so my money remains in limbo indefinitely.Business Response

On 12/18/2023 JM Bullion did a buy back of my silver and I did everything to their letter on shipping. I dropped off the package at FedEx and from there it disappeared. The tracking says it is still where I dropped it off. JB Bullion said it was delivered 'somewhere' as 'they got a phone call' from 'someone' and no other info. on it. So, FedEx dropped it off 'somewhere to someone' and did not zap it for current tracking updates and nobody knows nothing and missing just before the holidays at that, HMMM! Something tells me this is an 'inside job' and I got ripped off! and I'm still getting the run around. I filed a claim 12/29/2024 with FedEx also and the package was insured at that with JB bullion. Here is my claim with JB Bullion. Jm Bullionwrote: Dear BB Ops, A claim has been filed on your behalf for a lost (8) 5 oz Silver Bar (Varied Condition, Any Mint) and (3) that was mailed to you on 12/18/2023 from JM Bullion, Inc.. JM Bullion, Inc. has filed an insurance claim with Cabrella for this parcel and needs you to complete a statement confirming the lost. As of now the tracking is still where I dropped it off! Which I did. see attached doc. and now they want me to do it again...Here is their latest, ..... What size boxes did you use? (Both inside and out) Where did you get them? Was there any tape on the boxes at the time, or did you assemble the boxes from scratch? Where did you pack them? Was there anyone else there during packing? If so, who? What packing material did you use? Paper, peanuts, bubble wrap, something else, nothing? (Both in the inside box and the outside box) What type of tape did you use on the inside box? Clear tape? Brown tape? Both? How wide was the tape? Did you tape only the top of the inside box? Bottom also? Sides? Did you bring this to FedEx or did they pick it up? Did they ever ask about the contents of the package, and if so, what did you tell them? Business Response

I ORDERED A 2021 10 OZ ******** SILVER MAGNIFICENT MAPLE LEAF COIN FROM JM BULLION, **** FOR $314.35 PAID BY CHECK. SELLER CLAIMS THIS PRODUCT WAS SHIPPED ON 5-22-23. PRODUCT WAS NEVER RECEIVED. SELLER SAID THEY CANNOT PROVIDE PROOF OF DELIVERY WITH THE EXPLANATION: SINCE THE TRACKING NUMBER HAS ALREADY BEEN RECYCLED BY THE SHIPPING CARRIER.Business Response
Date: 01/05/2024
Hello,
Yes, it is true that we were unable to provide this customer the proof of delivery as requested, as it was no longer accessible to us. This situation is beyond our control as the **** recycles and reuses their tracking numbers. This is why it is crucial to promptly report any non-delivery concerns to us. It is important to note that this order was shipped on May 22nd, 2023 and we were notified about the non-delivery on December 6th, 2023. We will be in contact with the customer to resolve this issue.

On 5-10-23, I ordered 80 American Silver Eagle coins at $30something per coin. The spot price for that day was $25.39. JMB always has comparable prices to reputable dealers so it wouldve been about $6 to $11 over spot. Ex: todays spot is $24.26 and JMB has veteran price at $33.05 if paying check and ordering ***** coins. I found out they charged me $44.66 per coin even after my military discount. Thats $19.27 over spot. I have never seen that price for this product and would never buy it at that price. JMB sent four emails after I complained but they just have excuses like how the price is determined which is IRREVELANT to their advertised price for that day. I always purchase the same thing: American Silver Eagle Dollar of the current year. I did not notice any problems until this year both in March and May. The same is noted by a lot of complaints. Im wondering if management changed this year. I know they have the ability to look back and see what they sold it for on that day and I guarantee you its not $44.66!Business Response
Date: 01/04/2024
Our premium over spot is primarily influenced by market conditions, supply, and demand. Our ********************** reviewed our pricing list at the time of this customer's order placement. The coins that were ordered were priced at $20.49 over spot per ounce for the first tier price. For qualifying quantity purchases and our military customers, the lowest tier price was $19.00 over spot per ounce. The spot price at the time of the order was $25.66, which means that the pricing is accurate at $44.66 per ounce. The premiums for these coins did not decrease until mid-June of last year. We hope this provides clear clarification!Customer Answer
Date: 01/04/2024
I am rejecting this response because: There was never a price off $44.66 advertised at the time of purchase for 2023 uncirculated silver American Eagle dollars bought through paid through bank between ***** ounces at veteran rates. I would not buy at that price. Sometimes I order on the phone and sometimes online. I dont know if I was told wrong or why JM is claiming they were selling at $44.66 an ounce which is laughable. Ask any reputable dealer what they sold for on that day under the same above conditions.Business Response
Date: 01/05/2024
Hello,
We are uncertain about additional actions that can be taken. The pricing, as substantiated by the copy of the invoice that was provided to the customer and verified by our *********************** is indeed accurate. We have utmost confidence in the accuracy of the pricing for this order. Regrettably, we do not have access to the historical pricing of other dealers.

I made a transaction on JM Bullion to buy a coin using a payment method I have previously used on 11/27/2023. On 11/28/2023 I received a notification that the payment has been confirmed and my product would be shipped. On 11/29, I received a message that my payment wasn't processed correctly and I would have 10 days to update the payment. I then simultaneously received a notice that the order was cancelled and I had to reorder. I was never given the opportunity to update info or provide an alternative payment as is there policy. I doubt this would have happened if the price of gold hadn't gone up as much as it has in the past few days but having been a long time customer I will never use JM again unless they honor the original pricing and allow me to purchase the item at that settled upon value.Business Response

Hello,
I'm sorry for the hassle. The account number on the order in question was invalid. This is why it was cancelled. I also show you have since placed a new order. Is there still something needed on this complaint?
