    I bought from them a couple of time. Very seldom I see stuff I like and usually sells below what I expect, or they start on irrationally high bids that never sell. If I were to sell I would look for a different venue. They are very fast shipping.

    I like Ian and I like the company. They did ok by me with some US moderns. But since I don’t look there for world coins, I couldn’t sell world coins there.

    I look at Great Collections regularly and buy a few lots a year. They have nice world coins once in a while. I've never sold anything with them.

    They seldom have the coin I want so I don't bother to check any more.

    I have sold some world coins with Great Collections.

    Great people to work with.

    After all said and done net about the same as Heritage.

    What you give up in the number of eyeballs you gain in the cost structure.

    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    I just don't see GC as a great forum for selling classic world coins, moderns maybe. Hopefully that changes some day but today I would not dare list any of my world collection there and hope to achieve the results I'd want.

    For better stuff I'd go Stacks NYINC, ANA and Jan FUN.

    I have about a dozen proof Aussie pre-decimal 1/2d and 1d coins I'm thinking of selling.

    I'm sending in next week for the first time, after having bought a few items. These are mostly in the few hundred range retail. We'll see what happens.

    I've been doing great Selling right here on the BST either directly or through referrals. I've been able to cut my show schedule in half and enjoy the grandchildren a lot more :)

    If you can't swim you better stay in the boat.......
