[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1789664, member: 75105"]It would've been too hard to: 1. Take everything out of the bags. 2. Weigh all the silver items, and give the silver weight. ???? The above two items would of taken less than 20 minutes to do, and could of gotten the seller THOUSANDS more. Time is money. [B]Another thing[/B], not everyone has over 9 grand they can just dole out for something on this. I bet you could count less than 10 people on CT who would drop over 9 like that. If he would of split it up into $2,000 lots or so, he would've gotten more out of it. Why? Because more people have less money, and that would've resulted in a higher total. To say "too time consuming" to take 20 minutes to make a better listing, which would have netted the seller thousands more, is hogwash. Here is another listing: [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Gold-Coin-Collection-Lot-of-118-Coins-ALL-SCANNED-RARE-Dates-and-Types-/121133400940?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item1c341d036c[/url] Again, who has $65,000 they can drop like a pin? Yes, there are many well-to-do coin buyers, but I'm talking about the general public.[/QUOTE]
