<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3119211, member: 19463&quot;]The unfortunate fact is that you will not get, today, what you paid for a coin at &#039;recent auction&#039;.&nbsp; Many collectors/dealers are looking for that coin and would have bid higher than you did if they did not think you were paying more than they would.&nbsp; People may pay Roma £500 GBP but not to you or me.&nbsp; In a few years, you may sell it for what you paid but most of us would just as well buy another in the next sale from a seller we know than this one from someone we do not know.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is exactly what eBay was set up to be 20 years ago when I joined.&nbsp; Unfortunately they chose to go the way of supporting &#039;pretend&#039; dealers and set up a fee schedule that favors listing coins rather than selling them.&nbsp; If you sell on eBay, you will get less for the coin than if you sell to a collector who knows and trusts you but the fact remains that the options involving strangers all share a substantial loss leaving the question whether you really want to sell now or if you really have to have the money, however much less it is.&nbsp; I would suggest saving money on all frivolities for a year and keeping the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
