<p>[QUOTE="SilverWilliesCoinsdotcom, post: 2816377, member: 86795"]I find a good way to sell 90% rolls is to provide two good photo or scans, of both sides of all coins, spread out in a grid fashion so roll hunters can dig into details and count their bargains on their fingers if they want, also gives all buyers a warm fuzzy in general. Then, just start a NO RESERVE auction at melt, or below melt, for that matter. Or if you want to attract a lot of bidders and hope for some competition, start it at a penny or 99 cents and don't worry. Someone will eventually bid melt on it, but you'll have a bundle of people who low-balled it still getting notifications towards auction end to stir the pot. The longer the auction in days the better you'll do. Balance that with how soon you really need the money. I finance my fishing trips this way. If I plan to go fishing Sunday, I'll end my auction on Friday or Saturday, usually works out quite well. Personally, I start at melt and send an email to all my existing customers as a heads up. I KNOW someone will go melt on it usually right away, as many know me and I know them at least in cyber-coin-space. One other trick is to put a roll end more desirable coin date/mintmark/condition as an incentive, burn a couple bucks, someone generally bites. This way I figure I'm attracting the people with the time to break apart the roll hunting and reselling and filling albums, as well as the stackers and investors.</p><p> Hope that helps, it's been working for me for a while.</p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill Purkins</p><p><a href="http://SilverWilliesCoins.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://SilverWilliesCoins.com" rel="nofollow">http://SilverWilliesCoins.com</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
