What are realistic values (buy/sell) for 1961, 1962, and 1963 proof sets? I'm finding prices from $8.70 (melt) all the way up to $23. Thank you in advance for any information.

Seems like most go for $20-25 on ebay. If you can buy them at melt, then that's quite a bargain
Rest in Peace

I do a lot of online (not ewwboy) auctions, I NEVER have seen less than $18 + BP. UNLESS, the sets are sulfur toned...thats the "done the nasty" look which is not universally accepted except by Noobs. Most figure at $22-27, pix are key.

Well I passed on 8 sets at $25 each. I don't think there's any upside at that price point.

If my intent was to resell then I think $15 would be as high as I would go.

Since there are 61 x 2, 62 x 3, and 63 x 3, I'd probably want to dump the 5 leftovers.
Rest in Peace

What I'd really want to say would surreptitiously and immediately be removed by the Watchdogs, so, I have to resort to reiterating what I said before. You buy those and find out just how much trash is really in them, it can be very, very difficult to unload even at cost. Bad Dog was quite right, altho for resale, you at least wanna make a 30% profit, otherwise you aren't valuing your own time and resources very much. You go broke that way in any business, want a few T-shirts of mine (Been there, done that)!
