    He just wants the buyer to pick up all of the sellers fees.

    Very nice coin though.

  • Don't know the FMV on that piece, but he says he's selling due to divorce. Having experienced that once, I know that the extra shipping is going to the attorney fund image

    Anyone bidding will just deduct $75 or $80 from their bid, allowing him $5 or $10 net for shipping.

    Nice coin, but let's say it closes at half its previous price.
    What would it cost to ship/insured, a $12,500.00 coin?

    I wonder what he would say if you said you pick it up in person to save postage.

    I hate it when you see my post before I can edit the spelling.

    Always looking for nice type coins

    my local dealer
  • If you use paypal, add 3% (not sure if you can do that) and if your from Florida, add 7% Sales Tax.

    Let's say the coin goes for $4,000
    You Live In Florida Tax would be $210
    Shipping would be $85 (Does that Include Insurance or that an additional fee?)
    The Total would be $4,295

    but since you are paying with paypal..3%=128.85

    Your grand total would be $4,423.85

    I don't know. Generally anything I sell over $100, the shipping is usually free.

    For eighty-five bucks, I'd expect him on my doorstep, personally, with the coin in hand...
