<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 1031484, member: 4373&quot;]It&#039;s kinda interesting that every time before I buy coins, I would look at prices beforehand either with half interest or just glancing. When I buy them, prices would often shoot up or I might be lucky and get them before it reaches ridicious prices. Some of the minor coins that I have including damaged ones perform interestingly well. Not suprisingly, my Russian coin collection has raised easily over 4 fold for a fair number of coins. It&#039;s the precious metals that I suprisingly don&#039;t do well other than the ones that I bought silver at 5-7usd/oz and platinum at 700usd/oz. I personally hate the &quot;precious metal investment&quot; nonsense and am very happy that I do better on average on general coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I personally don&#039;t mind making a loss especially when I sell on ebay. I believe what&#039;s more important is to have a reputatable feedback score. Thankfully, I easily break even after ebay and paypal fees. Sometimes you got to bite the dust so that other collectors can enjoy what you had. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I think Doug mentioned that selling can be an education - I believe so too. Think about it - you need to know what you are selling and know how to advertise to maximize profit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
