Got him to drive 40 miles to my near by QT. =========================== Have an appointment to sell him 23 Morgans, Peace, and ASE. I bought some "Good" Peace dollars off the net, and some similar Morgans. Had 2 ASE I had lost interest in. Appointment noon Monday. Feel safe him coming to my home. he drives 'bout 40 miles  Slowly getting ahead on trading up on my quality of coins. ... or at least putting cash ib my hands to buy something in the future.  .... see my next post |

Always amazes me how some collectors prefer only one type of coin. I sort of do that but also all the others too.

Using my collection to grow my collection. For a long time, I have had a lot of low grade silver coins dating back to the 1800s. $75 in face. (Not counting my Silver dollars) I have lost interest in them. Soooo I began calling LCDs to try for a quote on FACE X (?) Turns out that their not in demand. Over the phone one crummie dealer quoted 13. Next day it was 11 times FACE. Bummer  Now to the juicy results. I called a "PAWN" dealer. He was on C. L. $75 FACE = $900 in 'bout one hour. I can do a lot of low ball bidding with $900 fresh dollars to work with  My objective is to use my new cash to buy Morgan-Peace and sell them to my new acquaintance. At the same time I get to keep any coins that coins my way Personal results for me. More fun. Love my IKEs. but a little burnt out. |

Keep the best and sell the rest
Use that money to buy better coins.
Periodically, do an inventory and repeat.

Second transaction A-OK
Over all situation is, I am up grading some Morgans-Peace.
The deal today made a little, and more important is the relationship got a lot more stable.
He is driving to my house with the $$$$s

Use your collection to build your collection Off again Had an ad for 4 Morgans and 6 Peace Silver dollars (circulated) on C. L. -- my price meet at bank EOM Got a nibble. I shot back a polite "Sorry I can not take $9 loss on each Silver dollar." So he raised his offer -- a little -- I switched to IKEs Then I offered him 100 UNC IKEs @ $2 each. He took an instant interest, on the IKEs alone. From the beginning he ask me if I had paypal. I told him I do, but would not ship. We may have had 20 emails going back and forth in 48 hours. In the end he offered me a compromise on the 10 common date, circulated Silver dollars and $2 for the 100 UNC IKEs I have a new interest in Barber half dollars. I am currant bidding at "melt" value, plus a little. |
