<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 2047690, member: 24091&quot;]Yes, quite sad on the eBay situation.&nbsp; It used to be such a wide-open seller friendly place to unload duplicates (etc) and now it&#039;s pretty much a waste of time.&nbsp; I have sold a few things there over the past year, but only items that I had purchased at significant discounts to market price.&nbsp; The trick is to try and sell something already listed on eBay, with the existing listing way-way above market price but still getting best offers that are being turned away.&nbsp; For instance, a coin with a BIN price of $600 that is really only worth at best $200, but which is getting lots of offers.&nbsp; List yours at $550 with the automatic accept best-offer set to $350 and there&#039;s a good chance you&#039;ll snag a best-offer from someone.&nbsp; Of course, upon learning they won, the first question that goes through there mind is &quot;I wonder if I paid too much&quot;.&nbsp; And with all the other changes to eBay, that means some chance of it getting returned and all the headaches that go with that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Going conventional auction probably is the best bet, especially if you have a nice group of coins.&nbsp; And I guess it depends on the material you have to sell as to where you would want it listed.&nbsp; Did you watch the Stack&#039;s-Bower &amp; Ponterio auction in Macau a couple weeks ago? The prices realized where mind-boggling on much of the material.&nbsp; If I had to wait 60 days for settlement to get twice the money for the coins, I could probably live with that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
