<p>[QUOTE="Mainebill, post: 1907101, member: 44004"]I'd probably go heritage as I think you could likely negotiate a lower sellers commission and they handle more coins and run more auctions. Coins I buy there for over $1k they give me a certificate for consigning at 0% commission in the future I like that as a potential seller. I have no knocks against stacks either they've been easy to deal with as a buyer. I'd say if I were to consign a coin of that magnitude I'd talk to both and ask them exactly what kind of deal they'd give me payment terms- very important especially if you need the money soon exactly which kind of sale they'd put it in and how much you wanted the reserve to be (I'd never se a $40k coin unreserved) even if you set it far lower then the actual value say $25k. Then I'd decide which I was most confident of getting me the most money for my coin and consign to them. I've only dealt with both as a buyer but I've consigned many things (not coins) to auction and preview and often bid at around 200 auctions a year plus bidding online at both stacks and heritage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
