[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 1924963, member: 20480"]Despite what they say, every buyer . . . collectors, dealers, investors alike pay well in some areas and not in others. Noone, and I mean this, noone pays top dollar in every area. That means you have to decide if you are going to be the person to find the end buyer for every coin, or if you're going to pay someone else to do that for you. Big dealers know many buyers, but rarely can be bothered with low value coins, and tend to lump them into group lots, which will produce low proceeds. Smaller dealers have fewer outlets for a wide variety of coins, are generally less experienced, and may overlook important varieties or attributes. Auction houses can attract great audiences, but have high fees and will not guarantee a sale at your price. eBay fixed price maximizes your control over the sale, but can be a lot of work, depending on how you package the sales. This is what I use, but everyone is different.[/QUOTE]
