<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Finn235, post: 7805323, member: 98035&quot;]For every surprising success selling on ebay, there&#039;s always a disappointment. I&#039;ve been buying large lots from auction houses and flipping them on eBay for over 3 years now; probably close to 10,000 coins. I&#039;ve almost never managed to buy an individual coin from an auction and sell it for a profit. Just about the only exception is a provincial of a rare individual, e.g. this provincial of Domitia that I bought from Savoca for ~$25 and sold for $53</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1340570[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>One thing I have found is that ebay is a bad place to sell nice Severan denarii or high quality LRBs that aren&#039;t Helena or Julian II. Eventually I just learned to keep them and save myself the disappointment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Still, ebay is nowhere near as bad as the time I tried to sell on Facebook. Did actually make a couple sales at a decent price, but it wasn&#039;t worth the hassle of dealing with people who just wanted to attack me for owning ancients and not donating my coins to museums, gave me their expert opinion that all of my coins were fake, tried to rob me, or thought that I would sell them a Greek drachm at silver melt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
