[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 2725205, member: 78244"]You would be surprised. I sell all of my "details" coins in an auction-style format, and they usually go for about double what I expect. Case in point: [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/122459933944?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1559.l2649[/url] I will consider you extremely lucky if you get a single offer over $200. How do you know that $500 is as high as that one person would have gone? Was he just seeing how low you would go? Would there have been more pressure to bid it up in an auction style (as there usually is)? How quickly were these offers received (some people get email alerts about items listed for a particular search)? There are too many unknowns here to make a definite conclusion, though I know I would have been one of those $200 buggers. Plus your coin was slabbed.[/QUOTE]
