Alright, now I need some advice. I just had a contest, not only because I figured it was my turn, but I wanted to get my wheaties counted and on to e-bay so I can get a 14-d in mid range grade. I plan on putting my excess wheaties on the bay in 500 plus count bags. Should I have a buy it now auction or regular dutch auction? If I can get 4 cents apiece it would equal over 500$ for the 14-d. Just looking for some advice from any regular ebay sellers.

I will sell at least some of them here. But not for a couple weeks, one of my other hobbies, fantasy baseball, will occupy most of my time for the next few weeks. Even though I will do what I can to show they are 99% searched by me(for rpms)and a fairly large % for DDO's(and about 50% for DDR's)and there are no key dates, on the bay there is a greater chance of someone or sometwo getting over exuberant and putting high snipe bids in, maybe allowing me to get a 09s vdb!

I have around 90 pounds of wheat pennies.  Not a solicitation to sell mind you, but anyone can PM me if interested.

Everybody seems so eager to buy bulk wheaties but when I tried to sell a full $25 box starting at $75 + shipping a month or so ago I got no bids....Maybe I was too truthful in my listing when I said there were no key dates and there were a few cleaned and/or ugly coins but not many. If you do much roll hunting you know what I mean.
Good luck with your sale cpfull, I hope you make enough for the 14-D and have some cash left over to put towards the S-VDB

If you do much roll hunting you know what I mean. I'm math impaired. 2500 coins in a $25 box? $75 does seem fair for that. Maybe no one wanted that many. I think 4 cents a coin plus exact shipping is a pretty good deal. That's what I'd sell them for.
