<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheNickelGuy, post: 1660700, member: 20201&quot;]My watch list is always up around 100 items sorted by ending soonest. I make use of saved searches. They are sorted by buy it now and others are ending soonest auctions.</p><p>I have a lot of different interests and I surf around with key words and catagories several times a day. I have some searches that I can filter out some sellers so I don&#039;t have to mess with looking at thier garbage. Some sellers have a standard description that says certain words like ( purely fictional ) <i>&quot;Visit our coin shop in Mexico City if you happen to be in the area.&quot; </i>I just click the box to include description and if I am looking for 1812 coins I enter&nbsp; <b>1812</b> <b>-Visit our coin shop in Mexico City </b>and I don&#039;t have to sort through all that stuff from that seller.</p><p>Sometimes a coin is miscatagorized. Only a few see it. I manually snipe near the end of a lot of listings. Seconds before it ends.</p><p>I always add the cost of shipping to my final bid when figuring the value of any given coin. I always look at the sellers other listings before I check out because I might save a lot on combined auctions.</p><p>Lousy images are sometimes bargains. With some old copper coins, I have gotten good enough quite often to be able to tell what a coin may look like in hand even if the images is orange, blurred and splotched with black. I am often pleased and seldom disappointed with bad images and what shows up in the mail.</p><p>Sometimes, if a coin does not sell I will contact the seller and ask them to let me know when they re-list the coin and ask if they are going to start it at a lower buy it now. I sometimes get a better price and first crack at it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
