<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Speedy, post: 759687, member: 705&quot;]But what does Current market value mean? How does the PO decide what is current market value?&nbsp;&nbsp; If I go to the bank and get a roll of 2009-P Dimes they cost me $5 - since most people can&#039;t just do that they are willing to pay MORE than face value for that item - if I mail that item to Joe Blow, and he paid $10 for it, is the value $5 or $10?</p><p><br /></p><p>Again with the laptop - the current market value for that laptop for that person was $200 - but most likely I could have put it in the newspaper in our town and sold it for $400.&nbsp; An item is worth what you can get someone to pay for it, and I&#039;m trying to understand how the PO decides WHAT the value of such an item is.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not trying to be rude, or mean - I&#039;m really just trying to understand how this works so I don&#039;t do the wrong thing.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve mailed thousands of dollars worth of coins in the past and most of the time I look at what I paid for the coins, and what it would cost me to REPLACE the coins.&nbsp; &nbsp; In your first post you said Market value OR cost - I don&#039;t know if that means that it can be either...just as long as it is the highest of the two?</p><p><br /></p><p>Speedy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
