<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doug444, post: 1925262, member: 38849&quot;]As I have discussed previously, here&#039;s how to get eBay&#039;s &quot;free appraisal&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; List* the coin with a ridiculously-high Hidden Reserve, say $300.</p><p>2.&nbsp; It doesn&#039;t sell.</p><p>3.&nbsp; If the high bids cluster around $110-120, as an example, that&#039;s what the coin is likely to bring when you relist.</p><p>4.&nbsp; Relist and start around $95 (no Hidden Reserve this time).&nbsp; <u>Include postage and insurance</u> in your price.&nbsp; Postage should be no more than 91 cents, for a 2-ounce heavy duty 5x8 cardboard mailer, sent at non-machinable rate.&nbsp; PLUS insurance.</p><p>5.&nbsp; Ship ONLY to the United States.&nbsp; Do NOT ship to Canada (or any other foreign countries) because the coin may be subject to Customs duty, and may be removed from your mailer for examination, etc., a risky hassle.&nbsp; I know the best market is likely to be Canada, but don&#039;t ship it there.</p><p>6.&nbsp; Do NOT use cellphone photos.&nbsp; Either scan at 600dpi, or take a digital photo on &quot;macro&quot; setting, if you have one.&nbsp; For the best results, take a digital photo outdoors, right at the edge of the shade [under] a big tree, on a bright sunny day around noon; this gives you natural brightness and eliminates glare.</p><p><br /></p><p>*Most eBayers now get 50 (or more) <u>free</u> listings a month (I get 150, some get 500).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
