[QUOTE="doug444, post: 2642147, member: 38849"]I am facing the same dilemma. I have about 50 proof, mint, and $1//50c commemorative sets that don't interest me in the least. If I thought I could break them up and get even 20% more by doing so, I would. I don't list them here (for sale) because postage and insurance eats up all the profit, for common sets, plus it would take forever to clear them out. I'm much more inclined to list all 50 in one giant CraigsList ad and be done with it, dealing face-to-face. Rising PM prices would probably require updating the total lot price every month or so. To answer an inevitable question, I'd take the proceeds and buy recent $5 gold commemoratives, the cheapest ones. My buddy, who sets up at the local monthly coin show, says that by 3pm, when the show's rapidly closing up, the wastebaskets are full of Mint packaging...[/QUOTE]
