<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark_h, post: 1768435, member: 3726&quot;]Sold some graded Large Cents to the local dealer. They bought based off the grey sheet - before I went in I priced them off my grey sheet.&nbsp; I was within a few dollars.&nbsp; It was an emergency or I would not have sold them the coins.&nbsp; The local shop listed them on ebay that same day.&nbsp; In most cases they sold a week later and doubled their money.&nbsp; What is real funny is some where bought off EBAY and immediately relisted on EBAY with buy it now prices of double what they won them at. I never did see them sell again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here are my thoughts on selling - if you do not want to sell yourself:</p><p>(1) Consignment with the right seller.&nbsp; This will probably net you the most money, but will take you the longest to sell.&nbsp; If you have time this is a good way to go. </p><p>(2) Use Heritage - but be aware that common date, common grade coins might very well end up in a Tuesday or Sunday auction.&nbsp; You might try to work with heritage.&nbsp; In the end my consignment I paid 5% commission to them.</p><p>(3) Local coin shop - get money the quickest, but might lose the most money also.&nbsp; Quick, easy and a painless process.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I still sell to the local shop - for example some raw coins not worth a lot or extra coins from ebay auctions. I just take them down there to unload them. Not a whole lot anymore.&nbsp; All of the graded stuff will go to heritage and hopefully one of their platinum type auctions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
