<p>[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 12413, member: 669"]And there's the rub! There are a number of those sites that offer free auctions, but I haven't found one yet that has a decent level of buyers or sellers. If there aren't enough sellers, buyers don't congregate and bid. If bidding wars don't break out, at least occasionally, sellers won't risk getting inadequate prices, so they don't list. Because there are few listings, buyers don't . . .

[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 12413, member: 669"]And there's the rub! There are a number of those sites that offer free auctions, but I haven't found one yet that has a decent level of buyers or sellers. If there aren't enough sellers, buyers don't congregate and bid. If bidding wars don't break out, at least occasionally, sellers won't risk getting inadequate prices, so they don't list. Because there are few listings, buyers don't . . . Ooops, I already said that. :D I've picked up a few coins on [URL=http://list.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/20460-category-leaf.html?alocale=0us]Yahoo[/URL] and [URL=http://s1.amazon.com/exec/varzea/ts/browse-auctions/68381/058-5664611-0487458]Amazon[/URL] but no spectacular bargains and very rarely find items worth bidding on. Just judging by the stuff in my own area of special interest, the legitimacy of Yahoo and Amazon items is even more questionable than eBay. On the other hand, there are many dealers who sell coins for fixed prices through their websites - way too many to list here, but after you find a few whose stock interests you by using a search engine, you could always check back here for opinions on those specific dealers.
