Here's is a better link for better comparison, since you don't have a store, just look at the first column to compare the Final Value Fee btw Auction vs BIN. The program will highlight the column with the total least fee, usually the one requiring you to subscribe (have an ebay Store). Note: This excluding PayPal fee (2.9% + $0.30): http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinforma...strator.html

Playing around with that pay will reveal some very interesting understanding and the dynamic of ebay Fee mechanism:
1) If your average monthly sell is above $1500 then you better off subscribe for the $15/month fee.
2) If you sell a lot of love value item ($50 or less) then there's no point subscribing, unless you achieve high volume ($1500/month or more) and it's best to list the items as auction.
3) If once in a while you are selling a high value (more than $100) then it's best list the item as BIN.

Anyone considering selling on ebay should try to play around with it.

Selling it on the CCF would be a nice option, but since he is a new member, not very realisitic. I'd agree that ebay is the way to go or a decent coin shop that deals with bullion.

"1) If your average monthly sell is above $1500 then you better off subscribe for the $15/month fee...."

I seem to hang around that 1500 per month figure and average about 150 bucks per sale. Maybe I should jump on the grenade an open an ebay store....

See I had this all figured wrong in my head as usual, that calculator is GOLD, thanks!

Good to know about the fees being constant over certain amount, until you hit 10k. So it is not as bad to sell a real high cost item, or as bad as I had previously figured it would be....

Lol, you got that right, Hawk. At $3297, that is priced more like a 100 oz. silver bar!
