anyone have luck with boxes from Brinks

[Goes4ever]

I got my first full box of halves from wells fargo, and the box was from Brinks, 100% skunk. Just curious if anyone else has had luck geting boxes from Brink's? I ordered another box. Better luck next time

Some swear by brinks others use them as a dumping ground. Depends on how many competitors you have in your area...just keep in mind, no matter how much one dumbs, it does not stop people from depositing silver in brinks or vise versa.

There are no "Good banks" or "good companies", its all random, if someone deposits a bunch of silver in some small town in the middle of no where and its a brinks bank...its gonna end up in brinks, If its a fed bank, its gonna end up in the fed. you just never know.
Put it this way, I get a lot of skunk brinks. But I have also gotten my only barbers from brinks. You just never know.

I got them at a wells fargo bank, however I think Brinks is the only supplier for most banks around here. Well at least they are the only armored trucks I ever see around town.....lol

And to think I turned down a brink's armored truck job last year. Only paid $12 an hour and you had to wear a bullet proof vest and carry a gun, imagine that!!!!

I had an interesting new twist yesterday and this AM was confirmation. I had ordered two boxes from a Brinks bank just for grins as I'm having trouble getting halves lately. Yesterday I picked them up and they were FED/ Loomis type boxes- thats interesting. Thought maybe Brinks is out but how could they be when I been dumping there consistently the last few monthes. This morning I drove to one of my dump banks (different branch or that bank), I could have cried as I had to waite for the big bad Loomis truck to get out of the driveway sos I could pull in. Looks like I be dumping somewhere else from now on.

Brinks will put one 40% coin in each box just so that people keep ordering them.
