<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 1844576, member: 36248&quot;]The past 12 months I&#039;ve been selling some suboptimal purchases on eBay, and mostly breaking even on each one.&nbsp;&nbsp; I usually sell them for more than I paid, but after free shipping and fees, I about break even.&nbsp; &nbsp; This has been a great lesson for&nbsp; me, and I am trying in the future to not buy coins that I don&#039;t love, or that don&#039;t fit my criteria.&nbsp;&nbsp; This will minimize the coins I need to sell in the future.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My wife has recently told me that &quot;nothing is ever good enough for me&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically what got her going was the <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/help-me-understand-why-one-is-64-and-one-is-66.240687/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/help-me-understand-why-one-is-64-and-one-is-66.240687/">1880-s MS66 CAC coin I returned</a>.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I tried to explain to her that my collecting interests have evolved a lot, and how I try to sell my way out of mistake purchases and even good purchases to fund better coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t churn that much, but I have probably sold ~10% of the coins I&#039;ve bought in last 6 years.</p><p><br /></p><p>To answer your question, I still get giddy about newps, but I don&#039;t generally have the funds to wildly overpay for a coin, so I also don&#039;t have the downside when it comes to sell.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
