Don't think of us as just another dealer selling currency, picking the next note off of the pack and throwing it in an envelop. We are collectors too. We handle your items with the same care as the notes for our own collections. A UNC banknote should be more than just new, it should be in mint condition. If the note has a defect that is not related to the manufacturing process (like the Suriname 2000 series that usually have an edge bump from shearing or the stapled India notes), I will grade that note AU-UNC and disclose the defects in the listing. When you win a UNC note, you get a UNC note. I will also protect the notes for shipping and will not just throw them in an envelop and hope for the best.

Our goal is continued 100% Satisfaction!

We normally ship the same day for payments made before 10:00 AM Eastern (GMT -5), so you will have your items quicker too.

When you buy from us, we will post feedback for you when your payment is received. We strongly believe this is what all sellers should be doing. But some sellers seem to want to hold your feedback "hostage" until the item arrives and you post feedback for them first. Once paid, the buyer's main responsibility is complete and a positive feedback rightly earned. We are committed to 100% customer satisfaction and trust that a positive feedback will be posted in return when the transaction is complete. If our buyers don't like posting feedback, that's fine too. But when your buyers are happy, they will post feedback in appreciation.

We read all of the feedback received. Please contact us if you feel that you cannot leave a positive feedback in return.

We have automated the feedback posting process, not because we don't like posting feedback. But to ensure that you receive your feedback quicker and it allows us to get your items packed and shipped faster too.

Please feel free to use the Best Offer feature found on some of my listings. Remember that an offer is just a winning bid that hasn't been accepted. If it is accepted, then the item closes and you win!

About once a month we will run auctions of any notes received that were not up to our UNC standards. Maybe they had a little nick, or bent corner from the pack. Maybe they are dirty or worse. No matter what, these auctions will normally start at $0.01 so be sure to check back or add TjP Auctions to your favorite sellers page. Remember to signup for our newsletter to be eligible for free shipping and discount specials.

SPECIAL PAYMENT OPTION

We will consider taking payment in the form of UNC paper currency at face value for the current exchange rate from countries other than the United States. Please contact me about trading for local money before sending payment. If an agreement to trade is made, I will ship your item(s) for Free!

When you buy from us, the shipping fee is actually spent on shipping. Our average cost for shipping even one banknote is $2.05. You get a box with packing material, the note or notes inserted into a nice Mylar holder, an invoice and delivery confirmation. What could be better? Oh yeah, the bonus notes you get for orders of $25 or more!

Don't forget that we will tell you about any defects the item may have and we don't take chances with your investment. We are setting a new standard!

eBay buying log:

11/10/2005 - Another order received from an eBay seller. $2.50 shipping and they mailed our $75 banknote order using an envelop and a $.37 stamp. I guess the post office didn't know to take care of the letter so they shoved it in between a couple of boxes. Ouch!

11/21/2005 - Just received yet another item won from an eBay seller. This time it was $2.90 for shipping (used a $.37 stamp on a plain envelop) and the UNC notes arrived with a vertical bend, oh yeah, that's what we all wanted.

12/01/2005 - I am so tired of getting crappy notes. This time I even asked the seller before bidding if the UNC notes were perfect and undamaged. He replied quickly and described the notes as "mint" condition. How thrilling it was to have receive them with all the counting ticks, bent corners and folds. Shipping was free this time and he even placed them in cardboard at my request. Too bad the cardboard only covered about three-fourths of the note. Look for these soon in my "circulated" auctions, with all the defects, these notes should have been graded XF.

12/29/2007 - I lucked out and was out bid on what I thought was good deal. But after contacting the seller I found out that he wouldn't combine the shipping and charged it for each auction. Not so good after all.

1/26/2008 - I purchased brick of banknotes (1000x notes) and the seller dumped them into a flat-rate envelope, no padding, no wrapping, nothing (not even an invoice to hold them together). The post office happily damaged one of the 100x packs. Guess I lucked out there too, could have been the entire lot.

3/31/2008 - Buying several lots the seller happily charged me $14.04 for shipping, combining all the shipping into one big total. Then I receive a letter with $1.48 in stamps. Wow, 10x the actual shipping cost and he complains because buyers say they never received items. Well, for $14 could he not afford another $.55 for delivery confirmation, insurance or priority mail? I was a customer of this seller for 3 years, but he's mad at eBay for increasing the fees and he is taking it out on his customers. Here's one customer less for him to worry about.

When you buy from us we spend the money you paid for shipping on shipping!

Buy from us and we will protect your items for shipping.
We already know the post office won't.
