about a year ago i go to this bank.. ask to buy the bag of halves off of the coin counter.. they say sure... i score a decent amount of silver

about 3 months ago, same bank.. they say sure to sell me the bag, BUT teller goes through it right in front of me and picks out all the silver (she missed 1 40%).. i wasn't a member so i just sat there and took it

fast forward to now.. i'm a member of this bank (although i signed up at a different location)... i want to buy the bag again... what do i do?

do i:
buy it and then if she starts picking through it.. say forget it? ask for a manager?

mention i'd like to buy it but only if it won't be picked through? what's the best way to phrase this??

thanks!

just went there.. only teller there (others on lunch i guess?) was her... i immediately recognized her and assumed showdown lol

i asked to buy them .. she walks over to the coin counter and says wow .. it's empty.. that's rare... i ask if she can order me boxes.. she takes down my info.. then says what r u looking for anyways... i say, my son and i are building some 64-85 sets.. she says.. yeah i do that too......

i leave to go to my main branch to pickup my 3 boxes of halves and 2 of them are already opened (this is my first order there)..... i ask if these were looked through and she says must have happenned on the truck?? i've never before bought boxes that both happen to be open on the exact same side .. in the exact same way. i'm at work so i haven't gone through them yet.. but i did end search one of the open boxes rolls and nadda

i have a feeling even the tellers are trying to beat me to the punch lol

oh well... 1 box is still sealed...

what must it have been like to do this before EVERYONE was onto the game?!?

This teller is really rude and out of line. I personally wouldn't put up with it. It's bad enough that she dumps bunch of them on the counter and takes the keepers in front of you before giving you the bag. I would just complain about her to the managment about her tampering with boxes you ordered. If you order more boxes and they're opened, then leave them there. Don't buy them. See how upset the managment will be at her for opening your boxes because they'll be forced to send them back and she should do the packaging work. There's a lot of merchants that won't take opened boxes from tellers even though many of those Brinks boxes are inaccurrate. You have a right to not take the tampered box. You could state that it had been tampered with and may be inaccurrate. You can always say to the manager "how do you know if someone opened it and put in a roll that was short into the box?" because this employee messed with the box.
