<p>[QUOTE="Revello, post: 7855951, member: 103898"]There is an online auctioneer (uses the Hibid.com auction platform) who does not charge you a commission to sell your coins in his monthly auction, so long as the coins are medium to high quality type coins (you'd have to discuss that criteria with the auctioneer). He does charge the winning bidder a 20% buyer's premium, which is how he makes his profit. But, he handles the invoicing/shipping, etc., so you don't have to worry about that stuff. He sends you an inventory list of what you have submitted, listed by lot number, prior to the auction so that you can track your consignment prior to sale and during the sale to see how the bids are going. He sends you a post-auction results list, showing how much you'll receive. He then sends you a check about 30 days after the auction has been concluded. His auctions attract a lot of online buyers, primarily because of the above average quality of coins he offers. He is very knowledgeable of coins, and for raw coins his opinions on the likely grades or if details (or if counterfeit) are spot on. Only criticism I have is that he does provide prospective bidders his estimated value range for the coin in the lot description, which I often think is a little low. That obviously can influence the bid amounts that are submitted.</p><p><br /></p><p>The auctioneer is MintProducts Auctions, out of Manchester, NH.
