    Successful sales require a large volume of participants. I don't see any auction house, outside of Heritage; Teletrade, and eBay (with a couple of others) having a real go at it.

    Looking at their coin listings, I see they don't separate different types of coins. It would be very hard for me to justify wading through thousands of coins (if they ever listed that many) to get to what I wanted to bid on.

    Doesn't look like anything I'd waste my time on as either a seller or buyer.
    Looks like a potential for scam with a lot of unrated sellers and I see nothing about fraud protection, buyer/seller protection, or security links.
    I'll stay on eBay.

    <<<I see they don't separate different types of coins.>>>
    How much separation do you need for 58 coins?
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
  • I love overstock.com, they are the only website im allowed to purchase from. So please put your coins up, i'd be happy to bid away like crazy, or buy either way you look at it.image

    Could I urge some of you to put up things to bid on, it seems like there's not much at all there, and what's there, IMO is junk. Please put coins up.image
