<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Juan Blanco, post: 1627494, member: 41665&quot;]Selling? No, POS @ 31.40 I see most auctions SOLD @ ~1.75-1.90 ; so &gt;$2. is OPTIMISTIC and therefore <i>wishful </i>not reasonable estimation (unless UNC/BU)</p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Don&#039;t forget the feeBay bite (13%) </b>- a <i>reasonable </i>Seller&#039;s net after all costs &amp; includ s/h was <b>$1.50</b> I know I did the math, you can too. </p><p>The market is what the market is ... not what you <i>want </i>it to be. Yes I know it&#039;s pennies here but see what&#039;s happening?</p><p><br /></p><p>BURNED. If someone bought a $4 junk War Nickel @ $31.50, s/he needs to SELL @ $4.55 on feeBay <i>just to break even</i>. That means: </p><p>a) find a Greater Fool, </p><p>b) Sell at the normal mkt rate and <b>eat the loss, </b>or </p><p>c) hope &amp; pray for a HUGE POS advance to Sell @ the same/current &#039;good melt rate&#039; (above)</p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>At the typical rate</i> (c) &amp; to break-even, the guy who just overpaid 126% (above) finds a<i> likely buyer </i>@ $4.55 per coin when POS @ $80. </b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b></b>OUCH! Of course it&#039;s true uninformed buyers pay more for singles more often, and<i> if POS goes over $45. </i>more dummies/Greater Fools (c) might jump in and buy the junkiest of junk at higher rates. </p><p>Big IFs, there... don&#039;t count on POS $80 ozt! And if/when day that arrives, bet there will be eBay taxes too.</p><p><br /></p><p>So back to the &#039;worth buying/investment&#039; angle of the OP: <b>folks trading really need to get a grip on the math &amp; the market FIRST.</b> Needing to break-even at POS $80 is very, <i>very </i>poor trading. <b>WATCH THOSE PREMIUMS </b>you pay, now &amp; forever. Otherwise, you&#039;re losing... it&#039;s practically guaranteed. </p><p><br /></p><p>I suppose War Nickels a weaker (if not <i>the weakest</i>) bullion choice. The relatively low-price point is deceptive/attractive to many poor noobs now -<i> but don&#039;t count on them buying anything when POS is @ $80.ozt&nbsp; </i>Instead, look at declining sales of AGEs and ASEs as proof of future trend (w/ higher PM prices and a cruddy economy on QE life-support.)</p><p><br /></p><p>POS goes down? Well don&#039;t whine we didn&#039;t tell you so, either. On bullion, too-high premiums are for loser latecomers and panicking idiots... every time![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
