I not super into paper money but if it's cheap I like to pick it up here and there. Here are a few notes that I just sold and I wanted to know if I sold them for a fair price. 1929 $10 National Currency Note http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/252131016705 1934 C $10 Fed Note http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/252130990287 15 $1 Silver Certs http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/252130930560 Two Older $5 Notes http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/252130969431 Thanks for the help!
I think you did OK for all the bills that were from the NYC Fed. reserve. The Silver Certificates no problem. Now Take the money from the bills face value save that and then use the rest to purchase more bills. Just my slant on life here.
I agree with Dean; the "excess" is known as wealth. I seldom sell anything but when I do the excess I put into my "buy more paper money" pocket.
Why are you charging $2.54 for shipping that costs less than 50 cents? Single bills could be vastly more attractive if you included "Free Shipping" in the listing. Personally, before I buy anything light (like a single note) I'll check all the listings and will ALWAYS buy from the Seller who isn't trying to make additional profit from mailing the item to me. Just a thought. Oh, and, I think you made out very well with your auctions. Jack
While I agree with the above comment about free shipping in principle, the seller who only spends 49 cents on shipping risks damage to the contents in the mail and getting ripped off by the buyer who claims it was never received.
Excellent thought, and one I had not thought about. I've never been an ebay Seller, only a buyer. What tilted my view is another item listed by this same young man charging as much as $21+ to ship a Mason jar of pennies. Your point is well taken but there are obvious abuses. I was thinking in terms of single currency notes being mailed with very little chance for damage. If the $2.54 shipping charge includes insurance for the delivery, it would be well worthwhile. Thanks, Jack
