[QUOTE="jimmy_goodfella, post: 16253, member: 919"]well often if you buy cheap enough you cant lose you could always break into 2-3 lots and resell right back. if they have a bad picture blow it up and scan the coins see if you can find anything intresting never buy them from a dealer hes already checked through them. as for making money well ive bought about 8 diffrent lots in last month using the principle i described above and ive spend about 60 usd on them including the postage and i found one coin i got 110 usd for alone plus sold most of the rest for about 350 usd.Ialso now have the junk left that i will just relist back as a job lot and probably get what i paid in the fiorst place. just look at peoples feedback if they have been selling coins forget buying off them at all they will all be looked through already. Another ploy and i will tell ya this yer prob in diffrent country to me is to search in collections using buy it now and look for the items newly listed, sometime people with no knowledge put a buy now on there load of old coins and you can snap em up before others notice them in the listings.work from the last page forward is the best advice i could give. thats how i got all my good deals.[/QUOTE]
