<p>[QUOTE="fiddlehead, post: 1202059, member: 31286"]Yeah, that's what's so great about ebay - if you're patient you can buy something one day and reasonably sure of getting most of your money back the next day if you had to sell it - or, if you're skilled at listing, you might get more. In the end, I find that on ebay if you're willing to win some and lose some, you can pretty much come out even most of the time. Now and then I've made 100% profit on items I held for less than a year - and so far this has made up for the small losses I've incurred as I improved and refined the quality of my various collections - that would be impossible using "dealers" - and it wouldn't matter what the object - musical instruments, coins, antiques - unlike ebay, where you can buy and sell to and from everyone, dealers always pay less than they think they can sell for - not true of ebay buyers - more motivational variety.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
