Mine is scheduled to arrive Tuesday I'm gonna keep it regardless of all the hype now I think the limited qty will prove to increase the value even more over time as all the ones being flipped now will end up in the hands of collectors who truly want to add them to their collections making them more difficult to get.
I get very unlucky with mine, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...121611&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT#ht_1089wt_958 And the very next day I received a link to an in hand one that was $200+. Maybe I should have waiting until mine was in hand? Big disappointment, if I could have made more money.
Nah, don't sweat it man, you made some, others make more, some will make less and there may be those who can't dump them when they want to and be lucky to break even, you done okay. Maybe it wasn't worth your time and effort, but at least you came out above with a few extra bucks :thumb:
Well yeah, one could look at it with that perspective also Guess I just gotta be happy with what I got
The flipping gods were not working in your favor that day. Bad Karma that 3 closed within minutes of yours. You did everything right (listing in both categories, and correct title). That is such a bummer to scrape the bottom like that. Anyone that has sold more than a couple of hundred items on ebay has felt your pain more than once. Sometimes I go back and look at my low, closed price listings, and think did someone superimpose a picture of Bin Laden on my listing that everyone sees but me.
All these people talking of selling 2 and keeping 1... yet wasn't the limit 1? How many people couldn't buy their _ONE_ because others were breaking the rules and buying extras to resell? Pitiful. John
I was just wondering why you put this in your listing. "Returns will not be accepted on this item for any reason."
I would never buy the Chronicles set slabbed. The Chronicle album is what makes this special. If you remove the coins from the set, you just have five coins you could have acquired elsewhere for a lower price.
Here our little tycoon all that studying in school & here has work out well!!!:hail::kewl: http://tmoneyeagles.webs.com/apps/photos/ If it works then don't fix it!
Put my second set on ebay this morning before heading to work. Got to work and I had a paypal email that money had been sent to my account. buy it now of $155. Both my sets will come in this thurs and I will pick my fave one and ship that sucker Friday woohoo for 100$ to do nothing
Have you checked the prices of the PCGS PR70 Lincoln cents ??? You could sell 1 PR70 cent and buy you another LN6 set.......:kewl:
I received my set in this morning. I am astonished and impressed at the quality and historical value of the set. This is one set which will remain for years to come in its original packaging. Well done US Mint! Thank You!
Nor did I ! but after retiring I still need to do something. I do not hunt, had my fill i n the Army 1968-1988.then retiring one more time in 2003 so I do some eBaying :kewl:
Why break them up. Just replace the coins with slightly lower quality pieces and you have your 70's and your "limited set" too.
Does anyone know if the capsules in the LN6 are the sealed variety or can you open and re-close them? I have one LN6 'in hand' but haven't looked into this aspect yet. That might prevent people from swapping other proofs into the original sets.
.......just a heads up to the tycoons. don't forget the IRS in your big profits, time to share the wealth!
