    Oh, of course....


    This isn't a big deal and isn't likely to make any noticeable difference in your sales totals. No one is going to buy from you only because you put generic ASEs in air-tites or some type of "slab-style" holder.

    With that said, how about something like this:


    Generic ASEs come in a 2.5" x 2.5" (or whatever). In Air-tite add $0.50.


    At least this way you're giving potential buyers a choice while not relying on some no value gimmick to hopefully make sales.

    Yeah that is what I was thinking about doing.

    I have 20 ASE's for sale in air tites and in a tube for $500 shipped/insured in the for sale section. That is $25 each shipped and insured.
    No takers yet. Is my price too high? I would not think it is considering Ebay is getting $26+ shipped per raw ASE it seems. So my price with the air tites seems reasonable I thought.

    It could be because you can get them cheaper at a bullion website with free shipping and people on here are better informed than the average buyer on ebay that may just want one or two of them. There is also buyer protection on ebay.

    Maybe. Can you post the bullion website where they are cheaper for 20 shipped with air tites?
    I will beat the price.

    JmBullion, Provident Metals, Goldmart. That's a start, I'm sure there are more.

    You can buy airtites for .45 a piece or so I think from Provident.

    I really can't compete with jm bullion They offer them for $22 w/ free shipping. They must be buying them at $16-$18 each

    JmBullion is $23.34 , Provident is $23.97, and Goldmart is $23.44
    Thanks! I had not checked those guys in a while.

    I will price mine at $460 for 20 2014 ASE's. That is $23 per coin with air tite and tube. Shipped free with insurance.
    Sort of a get to know me sale.

    I am lowering my price to $21 each shipped. So $420 shipped for all 20.
    Nobody will beat that on ASE's in air tites.

    I'd watch what you say here. this is technically self promotion. which is against the rules.

    The reverse proof "pops" in the retro holder. I have a view of them and love 'em.
