Considering doing the Buy it Now, seems like a good deal at half list price, but i thought i'd get some opinions from more knowledgable people first..

Wait...didn't we go through this a few months ago?

Why are you asking us? You'd probably be in a better position to answer this question having already gone through it. How did the last deal work out for you?

1. May 10th wasn't that long ago. Benson coins were everywhere then also as you can see by the replies in the linked thread.
2. Who in their right mind would ask for opinions on a lot that they bought 2 1/2 months ago and made an easy $200 on? Only an idiot would post asking for opinions YET AGAIN and not buy it now and make another $200.
Cameron Kiefer
When their is greater supply, equals less demand. Thus the current lot is worth less then the $570 you originally paid, because of increased supply.
Calm down dude. He's just asking a simple question. No need to get into name calling.
Would you post asking for advice after you made $200 on the last deal? NO. You would buy it or pass based on what you wanted to buy/how much money you have but not ask for opinions again.

I just didn't see how your response was any help to someone asking a question. All you did was basically call him an idiot and give him the impression that his post was rediculous because it had been gone over once before.
Be careful - Your 'Sheriff' attitude seems to be rearing it's ugly head again.
Just because you did a deal a month ago, things change. When dealing with a marketplace, you have different variables which affect the pending outcome.
Perhaps the seller did well last time on the deal. Thought the advice he received last time was valuable. So he then sought out this groups opinion before he jumped the gun. What is wrong with that.
Could someone jump on the item and buy it now before him? Yes, absolutely. However, he stated Benson's are flooding the marketplace. So he should be able to find a similiar basket of coins for a similiar price, due to increased supply.
If you felt he was wasting your time, then why did you reply in the first place?
Bensons have been flooding the marketplace for many months and are not a new occurance.

Nope, Benson pedigree is worthless, and common-date non-FBL Mercs are not worth much in grades lower than 67.
I suspect they are all the really common run of the mill dates.
Now if they were ms67 or ms68, then you are talking about something.

If you simply want to know whether Bensons are flooding the market, which they seem to be, ask that.
Now if they were full bands 8K each would be a fantastic price!!!!!
