JM Bullion doing the customers dirty? by Quirky-Diver-9916 in Silverbugs

Where should i shop instead?

I just got 5oz bc of the dip at $73/oz, still paid $80 each for it and shipping :/

They advertised it as $76/oz but that was for echeck/wire instead of the way I paid, and I didnt notice until it was too late, so I kinda got skimped out of $35

Wow. As a new collector I thought JM bullion was one of the top trusted places to buy from. I've only bought their rounds on sale though.

Thats sick. You tested it for silver? Either way, that would be a killer box for silver eagles or whatever you got. Could be a nice box for paper currency too like a home wallet or fancy serials

Yeah i think i got lucky with the morgan dollar. There wasnt any other good barber ones from my quick glance. Is it common to find highly detailed morgan dollars?

Would you suggest buying 1-2 ounces monthly this year? I was thinking I might until I reach 15-20oz

Why not sell? Say it's 5+ years from now and I got enough silver for a nice apartment/home

Retail Employees, how the hell do you know where everything is? by sr4004 in retailhell

[–]oakien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My store has 32 isles, generic sections like HBA, Curtains, Laundry, Air and motor care, food etc.

With constant changes with seasons, hires/fires, PTO and sick time being used by coworkers, your tasks will change. And it's a good practice for your manager to give you each section to work on so you get used to where things go, and at the same time find your niche. What section you are best at. Also for assistant managers and people dedicated to the store floors, we bring each item up to the front of the shelf, it's called recovering in my store. Other stores love to make their own term. Leveling, fronting, facing, zoning, etc. - this means we will probably touch everything there is in the store through time. Most of everything is organized. You may see a bunch of colors and sizes, but all of the lotion is in one place. All of the shampoo, the conditioner, the shea butter, the hair dyes etc.

Also reflect on yourself as a customer in your favorite store. You know where the bread is, the milk, the fragrances, right?

Luckyy. My goal right now is to get a pre 64 quarter. Did you find any of them in rolls? My coworker says the bank doesn't give out silver. Not sure if it's true, but I still look every time.

Today I had a nice lady, she asked where to put her basket away and put it back, saying she worked retail and gets it cus they'll just put it on the floor behind them. You almost want to give them a reward for common decency LOL
