XRF Analysis Terms and Conditions (subject to change)
 
AFTER CHECKOUT
Customers will receive an excel document (or link) to download and fill-in the pieces they plan to send.
Fill out the excel document with enough unique information to identify each piece separately. Customers can change the header categories as necessary. Not all info needs to be filled-in. Customers may email me a separate excel document with the same type of information. Customers may also request specific places on the item/coin where they would like a scan to occur (i.e., a silver plated counterfeit with the underlying planchet metal exposed, and the customer wants the XRF to try to identify the underlying planchet metal/alloy) 
Email the completed excel sheet to BadMetalCoin@Gmail.com
Arrange coins, medals, tokens, jewelry, or other item in the order of the excel list.
Preparing your submittal. In your package, please include a separate payment to cover return costs, and please identify preferred return method, any insurance, or other add-ons.
Mail pieces to the address identified in the Excel document (from #1, above). Customers are responsible for securely packing, mailing and insuring their orders.
 
UPON DELIVERY
I will email you that your package has been delivered/received, confirm that what was mailed matches the list of pieces that were emailed to me, and secure them in a safe.
XRF analysis and results will usually begin and be completed within 7 days. I will email you if I anticipate a delay.
When the XRF analysis is complete, I will email you the results. Customers can have a 7 day grace period to follow-up with me if any of the results are unanticipated, and the customer may request another analysis of a specific piece on a case by case basis.
 
AFTER WORK IS COMPLETED
Your XRF-analyzed items will be returned in a manner consistent with your requested return method, from part 5, above. Returned packages will minimally use reinforced tape (not the clear tape). Typically, coins will be mailed back to you on a Monday or Tuesday. A tracking number will be emailed to you in advance.
 
Record Keeping
All XRF analysis results will be saved. Should you lose a copy of your XRF results, please contact me and I can email those back to you.
