My first coin auction, how'd I do?

I've been holding off on listing anything on E-Bay until I knew more about what I was doing.

I think this one went well. Went for more than I thought it would.

That's an auction just the way I like them. Minimum commentary and maximum image.

Looks good to me - nice pics, clear shipping and return policy, and a low start with no reserve.

Two suggestions, though:

1) Next time start your auction at $.99 instead of a dollar, you'll save a few cents in eBay listing fees.

2) The postage seems a bit high, but as long as you really ship Priority Mail as you said it's probably reasonable. Don't be surprised in the future if you get questions from bidders asking if they can save postage by shipping single coin lots like this one first class.

After a few bad deals with shipping, everything goes out Priority, Insured, with Confirmation. I found the hard way that it's one thing to trust the buyer, it's a whole 'nother thing to trust the Post Office.


Thanks for the comments.
