<p>[QUOTE="Pilkenton, post: 872402, member: 23961"]So far, so good for me. I just started selling this weekend. I've sold about ten well-circulated coins and have done extremely well so far. I've only lost money on two things, one being a well worn Morgan for 12 bucks, including p&h, but I turned around and sold another well worn Morgan for 26 bucks!!! I sold a circulated 1964 Roosevelt dime for almost six bucks!!! </p><p><br /></p><p>There's a few things I'm learning as I go. Paypal will take from your personal bank account when you buy, but when you make money, you physically have to transfer your winnings from paypal to your bank account. Also, there is a $500.00 a month limit that you can transfer from paypal to your personal account, unless you give them more information about yourself. I'm glad I read that because I'm recently laid off from my job and I'm using ebay to supplement my income.</p><p><br /></p><p>It's also a lot of work. First, I decide what I want to sell. Second, I take pictures of the coin. Third, I have to resize the photo on my computer. Fourth, I list it. Fifth, after it's sold, I write the transaction down in a notebook. Sixth, I package the coin. Seventh, I transfer the account information from the notebook to my computer. Eighth, I have to take what I sold to the Post Office. Ninth, I have to wait three to four days for the money to get transferred from paypal to my bank account.</p><p><br /></p><p>Whew!!! I never worked so hard in my life. I have to get my wife to help me. I'm just a rookie, so I don't know what else I have to look forward to.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
