<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1963447, member: 27832&quot;]Finally tracked down a couple of the &quot;best offer&quot; pre-sold Kennedys on eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-2014-Kennedy-Half-Dollar-Gold-Proof-Coins-K15-SEALED-IN-BOX-PRE-SALE-/301264560033" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-2014-Kennedy-Half-Dollar-Gold-Proof-Coins-K15-SEALED-IN-BOX-PRE-SALE-/301264560033" rel="nofollow">This pre-order box of 5, unslabbed</a>, was listed at $10K, sold at $7400. According to <a href="http://www.newlifeauctions.com/calc.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.newlifeauctions.com/calc.html" rel="nofollow">the calculator I use</a>, that would yield $6935 after eBay and PayPal fees, a $730 profit (a bit less after shipping to the eBay buyer) -- assuming the coins show up as scheduled, and assuming the buyer doesn&#039;t back out.</p><p><br /></p><p>A number of slabbed 70s have sold for $2500 to $3500.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unslabbed singles have ranged from... well, there was <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/2014-W-Kennedy-Half-Dollar-Gold-Proof-Pre-Sale-/400739173236" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/2014-W-Kennedy-Half-Dollar-Gold-Proof-Pre-Sale-/400739173236" rel="nofollow">this one last month</a> that appeared to sell 5 for a Best Offer of $2.00; oops!

There were surely a <i>lot</i> of others that didn&#039;t get any bidders or didn&#039;t meet reserves. I count about 30 offered at prices less than $1995 that didn&#039;t sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll continue to watch with vested interest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
