[QUOTE="No_Ragrets, post: 26535030, member: 151874"]In my downtime today, I pondered the thought about selling some of my non-cull stuff on ebay. I haven't sold anything on that platform in well over 10 years, so I thought I'd ask here to gather opinions and seek advice from those who have completed sales / auctions recently on there. Is it actually worth it? I'm not looking to rip anyone off and would very likely start with smaller value items starting at $1 and let the auction do it's thing. Eventually I would get to some mid-grade items that would very likely garner more attention and higher values, but before I do that I would need to get some prior feedback on sales, which would hopefully be done through the earlier auctions. How do you go about mailing lower value coins? I'm not immediately opposed to just a plain white envelope (with it packaged properly and all) but figuring out the best shipping method at a relatively fixed price would be fairly pertinent. I'm very well-versed when it comes to ensuring packaged items arrive in the condition I sent them, but I can't stop a thief when I'm hundreds of miles away, so I would very likely use a bubble mailer for stuff that deserves it. Anyways, please feel free to chime in here and share your thoughts, experience, or even biased opinions. I'm all ears here!;)[/QUOTE]
