<p>[QUOTE="The_Cave_Troll, post: 72821, member: 1674"]Willie, for someone without a respectable eBay history (at least 12 months on eBay and a positive rating of 100% over ar least 100 transactions) It would take about $225 face Value to get $1000 on eBay (bid price plus shipping). The total cost would amount to a MINIMUM of $28.12 in listing and closing fees PLUS $29.30 in Paypal fees PLUS at least $25 in postage and packing expenses. That comes to about $82.50 in total expenses for a sale of $1000.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>edit:The numbers I quoted assumed that you had at least some positive feedback and NO negative/neutral feedback on your eBay account, that you live in the continental US, that your buyer lives in the continental US, That you only use one picture in you eBay listing, that you have a starting price of less than $1 for your auction, that you don't set a reserve on your auction, that you have a Premiere Paypal account (one that accepts credit card payments), that you can package the coins for shipping for less than $2, and that you ship USPS parcel post.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
