<p>[QUOTE="susanlynn9, post: 18753, member: 1258"]Hi, Butch. I looked at your feedback and saw that you only have 5 as a seller. That might be part of the problem. I couldn't look at any of your closed auctions because they were too old. What were your pictures like? Even with graded coins, veteran collectors who purchase on eBay do not take the grade on the slab for granted. They want to buy the coin, not the slab. If the pictures are not large and clear enough, there are many people who would not take the chance on a higher dollar coin. My husband and I sell on eBay and we usually start our coins at about 50% of Red Book value. We have had very good sales and many of our coins sell for over the Red Book price. We have sold some graded coins and we always provide a supersize image so people can scrutinize the coin. Hope this helps. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
