Review: The advertising card I received in the mail states: "simply agree to preview the first quarter in the new series (referring to the National Park quarters) and we'll send you all 50 state quarters, a $100 value, for free (pay just $4.95 to cover p&h)." When I called to place an order, I was told I had to pay $19.99. The $19.99 was for some sort of display item and several of the park quarters to preview. They said that the items could be returned for a refund if they are not wanted. They argued that this info was not on the card. I read the card to them. I said there was nothing about $19.99 and I am to only preview the first quarter (which indicates 1) and nothing else required for the $4.95 (for S&H). There is not anything on the card that states the previewed coin has to be returned & nothing about money back guarantee. They continued to argue their offer was $19.99 and refused to take my order without paying this amount.Desired Settlement: Take my order as stated on the offer which is $4.95 (for s&h) for the all of the 50 state quarters and the first quarter in the new national state park series.
