<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PlanoSteve, post: 25369790, member: 91609&quot;][USER=158885]@AtlantaMan[/USER], welcome to CT!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie83" alt=":singing:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I want to throw something out there which I think will help you (at least mentally) <b><i>in the long run</i></b>.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you were selling just <b><i>one</i></b> coin, then you would most certainly hold out for the price you want &amp; be less negotiable. </p><p><br /></p><p>But selling a <b><i>quantity</i></b> of coins is a different issue.&nbsp; It&#039;s actually similar to <b><i>accumulating </i></b>a quantity of coins where you may determine you actually paid too much for some, or too little for others, as you go.&nbsp; When I have done this, I consider a &quot;dollar cost average&quot; for the acquisitions, over a period of time, say 2 or 3 months or &quot;for the calendar year&quot;.&nbsp; If I didn&#039;t feel good about the total paid, I changed my strategy.&nbsp; If I couldn&#039;t get past <b><i>a single coin</i></b> transaction, I would go nuts (well, I probably am, but that&#039;s not the reason <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />)!</p><p><br /></p><p>Similarly, when intentionally selling a <b><i>volume</i></b> of coins, don&#039;t look at each transaction individually, but as a &quot;group&quot; or &quot;dollar cost average&quot; because you&#039;re going to <b><i><u>sell to the current marketplace</u></i></b> , you will wind up accepting offers or counteroffers &amp; you will &quot;win&quot; some &amp; &quot;lose&quot; some.&nbsp; Otherwise, you run the risk of being constantly frustrated rather than enjoying the process &amp; reaping the rewards.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, since you state you have &quot;some thousands of coins&quot; and many are low price point, I would suggest &quot;averaging&quot; the coins by selling some in groups, say 5, or 10, 20, etc. You will tend to move more coins &amp; reduce the stress for both you &amp; the buyer.</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s probably not just one good sales venue; try several to see what works best for you.&nbsp; (I have had great experiences with USACoinBook - as a buyer.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, that&#039;s just my two cents worth, which is worth less now due to inflation...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
