Re: 4 Brink's boxes---WOW

Kudos Silvercop , that is a awesome score out of 4 boxes ... as far as Brinks boxes go I have had good luck with them , now I am picking CWI due to changing banks due to fees . I dont know if it makes much difference on the the types of rolls as it does luck of the draw.. congrats , Ed

Re: 4 Brink's boxes---WOW

thanks yall, yea i think it is all just luck of the draw. hope my 16 boxes i have comming in thursday produce this good. i really wish i could figure all this out...i mean i have heard several theories, but i would like to know why some days are great and some are skunk. guess i would like to know the science behind all the shipping and storing etc. it is just strange to me how one week you can get 16 skunk boxes and the next week get 4 boxes that produce like this ??? ???

Arrange to take a tour of the nearest Federal Reserve branch (probably Atlanta). Due to proximity to a branch, the Brinks/Loomis/Garda/Etc. carriers will have a reserve to hold in their vaults. The closer they are to the branch, the less likely they are to carry a large reserve. In my case, I live about 30-40 minutes from the Jacksonville branch of the Federal Reserve Atlanta division. Knowing that the Carriers (Brinks, Loomis, etc.) do daily business with the Fed, means that they don't have to carry a large reserve in their vaults. Consequently, there is a fairly fresh turnover. I'll even take my dumps to a different Carrier region so that the dumps are likely to remain within the Carriers vaults so that I can tap into a fresher supply.

They are free and very much encouraged. You must schedule it ahead of time and submit your names in advance for security measures.

That sounds great! I haven't even found a 90%er yet, just 2 40%ers in over $1000.
