<p>[QUOTE=&quot;susanlynn9, post: 26278, member: 1258&quot;]I sell quite a bit on eBay and there are certain things that are a must if you want to get the best money possible with satisfied customers.</p><p><br /></p><p>First of all, take very clear, large pictures of your coins - obverse and reverse. It is always best to take them out of the holder if possible. Obviously, slabbed coins are different. If you are selling slabbed coins, provide pictures of the slab and close-ups of the actual coin. Always take a picture of the actual coin you are selling. Do not use stock pictures or pictures taken from a website. </p><p><br /></p><p>Secondly, include a detailed text description also. There are scratches and marks that may not show up in the pictures and some that look exaggerated in the pictures that are not that noticeable on the coin. Don&#039;t be afraid to explain that a blemish that is large in the photo is not noticeable on the actual coin. Digital images show a million details that the naked eye simply does not see. If you are going to attempt to assign a grade to raw coins, explain how you arrived at your grade in the description. What grading points did you use? Where did you get your reference (i.e., ANA Grading Standards, Red Book, Photograde, etc.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Make sure that you state your shipping/handling charge in the auction. Do not make people email you for shipping details. You will lose bids. If it is not stated, people feel that you are trying to scam them.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you follow these guidelines, it should not matter how high your feedback rating is, you should be able to make the sale. Even if a potential bidder does not agree with your assigned grade, if you supply large enough pictures, they can grade it for themselves. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
