For Colonial Acres, it 15% fee if you pay by cheque, debit, cash, money order, e-transfer or wire transfer. PayPal or credit card 18%
There is no HST if it s pure silver or gold. For the 5 oz penny there is no tax at all.

For the record, the penny sold for $494.50 (including taxes). The 5 penny set sold for $414.00 including taxes.
A special penny wrap roll went for $79.35
A Moonlight Fireflies went for $207.
The biggest bargain was the 1 Kilo Eyes of Spirt bear that sold for $1000, issue price was $2300.

The biggest bargain was the 1 Kilo Eyes of Spirt bear that sold for $1000, issue price was $2300. The record just supports the rule, that everything with the time loose the value. And where the initial issue price was high - it clearer. When you have the coin for which approximate "spoken" market value is X, when you will try to sell it, the selling price will be 20% less. |

I tuned in for the last few hours and bookmarked some of the items for future reference. Nothing of interest for me this time around that I could afford.  Looking forward to the Boxing Day bonanza next month. Surprising to see how high some of the lots went.  $356.50 for a straight 7 proof-like set plus taxes and $494.50 plus taxes for a 2008 Wedding proof set tells me that there are some collectors with lots of money to burn!

The 2008 wedding set is not rare, are you referring the 2007

The 2007 set has a unique silver loonie, the 2008 sets all use the same loonie, so the 508 mintage is sort of misleading, but can't argue with marketplace
