You let your wife tell you what you need to do with your collection?




Sorry, but that is just hilarious. lol.

Why does she "think" you need to sell them?

All that being said, ebay is the best place, unless you have some very valuable rare stuff, then maybe one of the major action houses like Heritage, etc

EBay.

If my wife ever tried to tell me what to do with my coins she would enjoy sleeping on the couch until she dropped that idea. My core collection is mine and I'll be danged if anybody tells me what to do with it... Wife or not.

OMG you obviously never dealt with craigslist. Its a breeding ground for degenerates. I make that statement because I am sure no one on this forum sells on there

I buy and sell on CL, I have conducted probably $15k in transactions on CL. Always meet in public (I like Barnes and Nobles) and if you can, conceal and carry.

Why is she asking you to sell your coins?

She wants me to sell them because I have too many. I'll admit I do. I am thinking of selling my common, multiple ones, that I have.

I'd go with ebay then. Just keep in mind that the total seller fees are around 13%: 10% to ebay around 3% to paypal. Also listing fees if listing as buy-it-now.

But as was already mentioned, ebay will get you lots of eyes looking at the listing.

This likely violates ebay's terms, but it's probably allowed on Craigslist!

Unfortunately very true. Yes there are stories of some good deals there but from what some I know have told me, not a safe place. My neighbor just had an example of buying a truck motor via CL. Cost a lot of money and ended up being a blown motor. Can't get much of a guarantee on CL. Lots of scarry stories.
And too so much depends on just how many and what kind of coins you have. IF there are any small coin shows in your area, you may find a safer, better, and more interesting place to sell coins. Check via the internet for coin shows and coin clubs. In many small shows renting a table is usually a decent price and you get to know other people that buy and sell coins. At such a place a dealer may actually offer to buy all your coins for a decent price.

Stop buying coins for awhile.
Sell on E-bay under buy it now and price them at which you will break even after fees.
List them here at CCF under pocket it now.
Trade with other members(few lesser coins for a single nicer coin).
Sell some bullion to LCS and take a small lost.
Get a small gift for the wife and tell her everything is under control.

If you are asking where to sell your wife, I suggest a penny saver ad. If she is over 30, the category may be antiques. Couldn't resist posting.
