Be careful how you read their mailings. I received their mailing on the Century of Lincoln Coins & Stamps and found it was a little ambiguous at first read and was way off on the total cost. It read, "Reserve now to receive your first shipment of four coins, plus a mint-condition stamp and Biography Card for just $4.95 ( plus 50 cents shipping and service) per coin. Thereafter, you will receive eight coins, two stamps and two Biography Cards at the same low price every other month until you own the complete 106 coin collection." At first, I took it to be $4.95 plus shipping for the 4 coins, then $4.95 plus shipping for each 8 coin shipment. What through me off was the plus 50 cent shipping and service between the $4.95 and the per coin. It should had read $4.95 per coin (plus 50 cent shipping and service) read more

3rd time sending products with an invoice but i never placed an order for these items

Don t do it. Charging credit card for non purchases. Had to cancel card and get new one. Buyer Beware

Predatory company!!! Dont do business with them. They enrolled me in a monthly membership program I never asked to he enrolled in. I bought 1 coin online for $23. The market price is $23-$25. A month later I get a bill for over $126+ and 2 of the same coin. They enrolled me in a monthly membership program, charged me 2 months off the bat, and charged me over 3x the value of the coin. I country get a hold of a human, and really hope I was able to cancel using the automated system. Disgusting business practices. read more

PCS Stamps & Coins - You can see where they charged $63.27 for a coin fling for $23-$25 on average. What is shipment 2 and 3? I bought 1 coin at the going rate. - Hobby Shops Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Slow response times. Terrible customer service department. Very quick to take your order and money Very slow on response by email sometimes not at all read more

They send stuff to you that you didn't order and expect payment. I called to tell them to stop, but who knows if they really will.

I've been getting mailings from PCS for several months. I've also asked them to remove me from their communications - in other words: NO MORE MAIL. Their information comes with postage paid return envelopes, so I use their nickel to respond. So far, they have not taken my name off. I will continue to use their nickel as long as they send stuff I did not ask for and do not want. read more

scam stay away! customer service is slow, if nonexistent. the only way to prevent them from continuing to charge the cc was to cancel the cc. once they have your card on file, they will charge your card for a miscellaneous thing you did not authorize. just got charged $65 twice for stuff i did not authorize. there terms and service should tell you everything you need to know about them by agreeing to the terms, you and pcs stamps & coins agree to resolve all disputes between them solely through binding individual arbitration or in small claims court and waive all rights to participate in any class actions and waive the right to have any dispute decided by a jury read more

Mailed me unsolicted/un requested coins and sign me up to receive them monthly and charge me. I never requested them and have gone through a month of trying to return them and stop them sending more. Very unhappy. read more

They ripped me off. They claim free, hassle free returns. They'll provide a return label. You can return the items, but you'll never get your refund. PCS Stamps and Coins is a fraudulent business. read more

They send bills for things I never ordered for hundreds of dollars. SCAM!!! How do you make it STOP? read more

Scam, once you order something they charge your cc every month and send something of little interest or value. Stay away this company there are other legitimate ones out there. read more

Do not do business with this company they should be sued for deceptive practices after sending them emails and calling them they continue to charge my card each month read more

I am holding in my hands 2 "Guaranteed Genuine" silver proof Kennedy half dollars. As I am sorting them into my slab box I notice they don't quite fit right, so I kind of look closer and realize they are just barely not as wide as an NGC slab and so they're loss and slip between slots, which.. kind of poor design choice there if you ask me, but that's beside the point. I suppose anyone who actually collects coins isn't intentionally continuing to receive these coins and they send "collectors" boxes/display boxes to keep them in. At any rate, it gets me thinking, who slabbed this, so I look them up, start reading reviews, and start reading horror stories. Like PCS Stamps & Coins abusing the grieving family of one of their victims in an attempt to extract more money on an overpriced subscription service with automatic recurring charges that are - apparently! - not easily understood by the people they are selling to (see all the issues and BBB complaints, etc.) Their "Guarantee" is worth 1 star to me - ie. nothing. No, worse than nothing. If a random eBay seller said a coin was a silver proof I would at least assume they had some reason to think that was actually a silver proof. PCS Stamps & Coins have been accused of sending completely fake coins on numerous occasions. I honestly don't know what these are made of, but any "grade" they give a coin means nothing to me, and the fact that they come from them makes me nervous to even sell them. If I can get something to test them I'll gladly crack the "slabs" and do so, but the fact that I feel the need to do that after reading their reviews and feeling physically ill at some of the stuff they've done to get such a reputation is pretty lame. read more

Beware they a high amount of money for extremely common coins. They charged me over $100.00 for coins valued at $10.00

Crooks and scammers are the nice things I can say about this company. Go online and placed an order, and Shazam they say I placed three. Then they don't credit my account, and customer service gets belligerent when questioned I thought they were reputable. Run away fast from this bunch. read more

My husband keeps receiving mail from PCS Stamps & Coins constantly. He has called to cancel ALL correspondence & yet they keep sending crap & bills for things he or I never ordered. We do not recommend this place at all. You'll never get rid of them. We have a garbage bag full, this is just in one day. read more

PCS Stamps & Coins - Hobby Shops Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Bad company. Once you make purchase they add you to monthly subscriptions usually you are not aware. First item was fake I returned and never got refund. Then they deducted cost of another coin the next month without my permission. Cancelled subscription then they deducted another cost for a coin for the next month. I returned all 3 of the coins all the while I was trying to stop the deductions. Finally had to close account. They did return two of the 3 cost, happy to end with $39 loss. Beware they are trouble.

Overpriced. Not for the seasoned collector. Ok to get a kid started. Compare ebay prices on items sold please. My opinion as a 50 year collector read more

These guys are criminals I was on the phone for the third time they said I had no more bills these was the last payment 55 dollars to only have another bill come in the mail and say I owe another 37 dollars for another fake collection that I thought I paid out months ago this is criminal and they are strong arming many ppl these is isn't an isolated incident read more

over priced, not straight forward about things being a subscri service not a one coin order, shipping is snail paced, return service is even worse. and continuing to attempt charges even after acknowledging reciept of returns the day prior. Run away from this company read more

Bilked my 88+ year old Korean Veteran Father In Law out of thousands of dollars. Sold him hundreds of coins that are worthless. He had a stroke and we called and asked that they stop sending him coin sets to "review." They actually incrased their shipping and continued to charge his card even after he passed. Lowest of the predatory groups you could ever do business with. We have folders of receipts documenting what they did to our Dad. Do something for a customer and you are good. Do something to them and you are bad. These people do things to the elderly. Nobody seems to care. read more

It's a scam. Don't buy anything from them or you will be sent things you didn't request. I was told it is in the fine print that you will order new items by default read more

Be very wary with this company. I made a purchase which was as advertised. They then charged my card for 2 more items that I did not ask for nor did I receive them. Customer service is non existent. Consider yourself warned. read more

They are a pure profit oriented company with medium type quality merchandise. They try to make a sophisticated pitch through insinuating that purchasing their products will eventually brings some good resale value results. Not true whatsoever. Any of their overpriced medium quality products are zero profit generating after 10 to 15 years of holding their product. I am not taking into account the degenerated US Dollar purchase power. Just simply comparing numbers. Year 2000 purchase of $ 1000.00 would bring at best via eBay $ 900.00 in 2022. PCS will nor repurchase their sold products. read more

PCS Stamps and coins randomly charged my account and sent me coins that I did NOT order!!! Very pissed off.

Everyone that has left a review on this site is 100% correct. I bought a set of 2 coins for my son who is 38 mind you And agreed to pay $55 from my checking account... The $55 continued for 2 more months until I contacted customer service... Because I am retired I never need to review my checking acct cause there is not much money to go around..... They told me it was 3 payments of $55 which know where would I have agreed to pay that much because that is way over my fixed income budget for the month.... I know nothing about coins or the quality of the coins. However I do know deceptive business practices this is a classic example..... Buyer beware stay away.... Ray from Pittsburgh read more

I had never heard of this company until I received a complicated color brochure mailer touting 8 MS69 Silver Eagles and the fact that I had been accepted to be offered an "absentee claim on U.S. Currency, but must do this within 14 days. The deal includes a wooden display box worth, they say, m $75, and the near perfect coins (MS70 is perfect), are mine, with the box, for only $137 plus $5 shipping, a total of just $141, including the box! "Absentee Claims"? What the heck is that?? The truth is that for the past 7 years or so, I have bought thousands of dollars of collector coins of all kinds, all from legitimate coin houses and sometimes from a local dealer, so this stuff about being approved for an absentee claim is -- a total crock of crap!!! And so is this company! All anyone has to do is go online to one of the companies selling coins, find what you like, order it and pay for it with a credit card or your Pay Pal account. Since MS69 Silver Eagles from 2011 to 2014 are generally in the $40 and up range, it makes no sense that they would sell them for an average price of just $17.12 -- and include a wooden display box, which comes with your third bi-monthly coin shipment! So why, you ask, don't they just send you all the coins at one time, since you paid for them? That's because it seems most likely that you are really buying just ONE coin for that amount, and if you complain, they will simply say you just misread their flyer, or some such B.S. And if you don't pay, they don't need to send you another coin, so in fact, you will have spent $137 plus $5 shipping for just the one Silver Dollar. Talk about bait and switch!! So -- if you get anything from them, run, don't walk, to the nearest trash can and throw it in! Signed -- A serious silver coin collector read more

My brother-in-law recently died and we have had the responsibility to dispose of what he left. In that process we found piles of statements where he spent money on either fake or real coins where he was charged exorbitant prices for coins and stamps he received. Here are just the first four bills we looked at where we compared what he paid to what the US Coin Encyclopedia stated (confirmed by our local coin shop) the coins were actually worth. By the way, many of the 'valuable and rare coins' were only worth face value... i.e. a new state quarter is worth just 25 cents. That's it! Examples: $135 for a silver dollar worth $24.49. A Morgan Silver Dollar costed him $171... worth $42. He was charged $94.90 for a third coin which is worth $46. The fourth coin (from this pile of receipts) cost $183 and is worth $24.49. Fancy packaging, alluring advertising... for gullible, uninformed buyers. What this company did to my brother-in-law makes me sick! Please, please... research what coins you buy on US Coin Encyclopedia before you spend one more cent for exorbitantly overpriced 'sucker bait coins'. Go to your local coin store for real coins at MUCH, MUCH better prices. You have been warned! read more

Just like many other reviews in past 3 or 4 years, these criminals sent me a bill for some coins I NEVER ordered. I never even made any contact with them yet they have been sending me 4+ spam mail/week. I even sent some back (as return to sender & in their envelopes). Suddenly I get this giant "envelope" I thought was just another 1 of their spam/scams... it was an order THEY made for me from 1 of the returned to sender junk! It was not 1 of 2, it was 2 of 2. I never even got the first scam order item(if there even is 1)!! I noticed they started sending me this junk after I attempted to order from a completely different site that "ran out of" the coins I would have ordered. that was last year. And about 1 week after I got the email from original order (of other place/site) confirming they cancelled the order like a more professional site/business would.... I started getting junkmail from this place... Hmm... coincidence? I NEVER bought anything from them, NEVER even gave them any money any way. How is this place still allowed to function? They're like a junkmail version of most those phone scammers! (sadly you can't block addresses/mail/businesses in physical mail for free like on phones). They're like some drug dealer/scalper shaking & walking up to you while sitting/walking out in public & no one doing anything about them. Oh did I mention in the fake order they don't give you any return info on any of the papers? Just like those phone scams. Oh just "email us or call our 800 number" or manage your falsely made "account" on their site. Somehow hopefully I will get at least the order returned, & better if fully cancelled (with s&h paid by THEM/free returns) & OFF THEIR SCAM MAIL LIST! (if they even continue in that thing they call a business) read more

Wouldn't do business with this company. I am getting 'junk' mail from them daily and I wish they would stop. Never have ordered anything from them and never will! read more

While reviewing my checking account, I realized that $26.00 a month was being taken out of my account by PCS! Contact PCS, who stated, "that I had never acknowledge their flyer, by signing and returning, outlining that they would deduct an amount each month!" By NOT signing the flyer, provided them, with an authorization to deduct $26.00 each month. After a verbal conversation with PCS (non-sense) via the telephone. I contacted the FRAUD Division of my back, who with in 10 days recovered three months of unauthorized deductions. I also mailed back them 9 different flyers, coin and advertising, back to PCS offices in Norwalk, CT BE CAREFUL OF THIS COMPANY. read more

I have no clue how this company stays in business other than their extremely high marked-up prices. I contacted them to get a replacement key and pamphlets that had gotten lost and the woman was terribly rude. read more

My husband received a coin package in the mail, along with a letter stating this is a subscription and a bill. He has not ordered ANYTHING from them in 10+ years. This is a scam and should be put out of business! There is no contact information to correct this and we are NOT paying for shipping to return something we never ordered!!!! read more

BUYER BEWARE! 5 star for false advertisement practices. 5 star for great customer service. 5 star for trickery. 1 star in point of sale efforts. I am a disabled Combat Veteran from Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan). I received a promotional flyer in the mail about PCS Stamps & Coins services. Shame on me for not going online to verify the information! My first error! I ordered a simple collection that totaled approximately $175.00. After receiving my Second coin of this simple collection, I received another invoice for approximately $175, which confused me. My second error was not confirming the payment details upon receiving my first coin, which is now post PCS's 30-day return policy! When I spoke with customer service it was explained to me that this is a frequent problem of misunderstanding regarding point of sale (PoS) and product to payment expectations. Although the customer service was undeniably the best I have experienced from any vendor in a very long time, I cancelled my order, future orders, AND requested that a pre-paid postage be sent to me so that I could return EVERYTHING to not be charged further. BUYER BEWARE! As we have learned in the military, Trust but Verify. Shame on me for Trusting AND NOT Verifying! I feel humiliated to say the least that I did not "know better" to simply make a phone call prior to making a purchase through a mailer! Nonetheless, our military teaches us to be Accountable, therefore, I accept my errors and am out of $175, my time, a promise to my child for error of judgement. Allow this to be a lesson learned to all, one that I will share with my children especially. read more

I never really Purchased Modern coins, so not knowledgable about them, but the PCS "The First Edition U.S. Coin Collection" which is advertised as first-year-of-ISSUE Coins with its really nice Wooden case looked like something to pass down to the Grandkids. After receiving 18 Coins at $755.82 including Shipping, the Coins stopped but my Box still had 2 slots? So I called and they informed me it was only 18 coins. I looked back at Ad and yes that was correct, so why does it come with a box that holds 20? Dissatisfied with it, I decided I didn't want to give my Grandkids what looked a incomplete collection, so I looked into selling it. After pricing it was only about $270 worth of Coins! Wow, talk about Mark Up they made almost 180% Profit off me. So thinking okay, I'm a idiot and got Scammed but guess I'll take the loss and sell for the $270 its Worth anyways, I went to a Local Coin Show this past weekend and was asking if anyone wanted to Buy my "FIRST ISSUE" Collection? One of the Collectors seemed interested and was looking through the Coins and said, "I thought you said these were First Issue?", l was like, "Yeah" and then I was informed that the 1922 Peace Dollar that PCS sold me in the Collection IS NOT a First Issue! That the First year of issue for the Peace Dollar was 1921! So now I can't even sell this crappy Coin Coin collection for $270 because its NOT ACTUALLY FIRST ISSUES! So I got scammed out of almost $800! I called to complain, knowing I could not get my money back because they only have a 30 day guarantee but it takes YEARS to complete the collections, so no longer Valid. But I just wanted them to fix it. Change the Collection or put in the right Coin. The guy tries to tells me 1922 is the first issue when I'm looking at the Peace Dollar website saying its 1921, then he says, "well, okay they made some in 1921" but that those would cost to much to put in the collection and since it was limited Mint, they were calling the 1922 the first year, BUT IF PCS themselves sells the 1921, how can they say IT IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUED PEACE DOLLAR! read more

RIP OFF ALERT!!!!The absolute lowest in an industry defined by crooks. Preyed incessantly on my 90 year old Dad with onset dementia.

Would give a negative star rating if the system allowed! read more

Stay far, far way from this rip off company! My elderly father ordered one set of coins for $171. He paid with a credit union official check. Done and over with, right? Nope. They have harassed him for over a year for not paying for the set. He sent copies of the cancelled bank check as proof of payment. They ignored him time and again and have now turned him over to a collection agency. They wouldn't deal with me unless I had power of attorney. Their customer service rep was a complete a-hole. read more
