<p>[QUOTE=&quot;westindia, post: 1220711, member: 32015&quot;]Hi Everyone - I am new to this forum but have been a collector/investor/speculator for about 15 years. I recently attempted to unload some things first at my only local coin shop, then on ebay. My local dealer bid me below <u>spot</u> by about 20% for PCGS Liberties and 15% for Silver Maples. So I restorted to eBay where a decent price was obtained, but then I paid out about 15% between ebay fees and paypal.&nbsp; I had another problem with eBay in that with the volatility in the gold/silver spot market a 3+ day auction can leave you to seriously misprice a coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>That leads to my open question - wouldnt an &quot;exchange&quot; be better than an &quot;auction&quot;? By exchange i mean you post your buy or sell price, and if someone likes it then you can transact. I know that there is a &quot;buy it now&quot; button on ebay but that function doesnt seemed to be used accept to find a buyer willing to pay over the value of the merchandise. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen the certified coin exchange <a href="http://www.certifiedcoinexchange.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.certifiedcoinexchange.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.certifiedcoinexchange.com/</a> but that is only for dealers, and certified coins. Typically I would like to move into or out of bullion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any thoughts/feelings would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
