[QUOTE="JBGood, post: 2308091, member: 38987"]I agree the whole business of buying and selling coins lends itself to those who have an advantage of knowledge over the other in the transaction. But, this is the world of buying and selling since the beginning of this activity. But what I'm doing is unloading some US coins so I can buy some more ancients. I'm going to try Great Collections first. I have 7 coins that I estimated values from Numismedia. These are reasonble compared to what I paid for them. The total is $2249. This total is slightly below my outlay of cash to acquire these coins. 3 Morgans, a shield nickel and 2 Seated Liberty quarters and 1 Seated Liberty half. My God, Seated Liberty coins are mud-ugly! If I read the fine print properly this auction house charges $5 "listing fee" per coin in this price range and a 5% sellers fee. So who knows what I will reap from this but I will keep you posted.[/QUOTE]
