Message:: [QUOTE="doug444, post: 2697160, member: 38849"]Sometimes this works better, and certainly saves a lot of time.  If you have, say, 6 Lincolns with various varieties or "errors," display your 6, but quote a price on "your choice of exactly 4 coins..." for $X.  That lets the buyer avoid two items he already has, or does not want, or does not like, but still results in an efficient sale of 4 at a time, saving both time and postage. Ebay probably won't let you do this, but Coin Talk might. And the coins don't have to be all-Lincolns, for instance, but they do need to be the same appoximate value, or someone will always take the 4 best pieces, whether he needs them or not. The buyer communicates to you, "I'll take A, B, D, and F..."  Yes, different buyers may want different "4" coins, but that doesn't matter; what matters is "I'll take........"  Leftovers go into the next batch.[/QUOTE]
