in U.S. Coin Forum
I was at a coin show recently and was told this was a very knowledgeable site for the coin world.

From now through the holidays is it a good time to buy coins on ebay or sell?

    Double that.

    Welcome aboard!!

    If you have knowledge on your side, it's always a good time to buy coins.

    Welcome.
    You can name your price on the BST, (buy , sell & Trade) forum... That beats the crap out of ebay,... but you get little exposure. There are also no fees associated with listing your coins over there.... Just a few rules one needs to get used to, but if you have good coins... they'll get snatched up.

    Just an alternative to screwyBay.com

    See a coin you like and fits your collection then it's the time to buy.
    Got a coin you really don't care for? Then that's the time to sell!
    And of course, WELCOME Seatedcoins

    Hi Seatedcoins, image

    I've been buying on eBay for a couple of years and selling for a few months. I really don't know if Christmas is a good time to find alot of deals or not. But whoever guided you to this site for coin knowledge has a clue. Just wait awhile and someone in the know will likely post the answer.

    Cheers! image

    If you are anything like me, you will learn more from this forum in 3 months than you could learn in 3 years from other sources. There are ALOT of very knowlegable collectors and dealers here that make posts from the most common of topics, to the most specialized ones. Welcome to the forum.

    Welcome to the Boards (I think).

    I have become very suspicious of new seated coin members, especially since the last debacle.
  • lordmarcovanlordmarcovan Posts: 43,664 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Howdy and welcome.

    This is THE site, baby. You need look nowhere else.

    Sure, there are a bunch of other great coin sites.

    But this is the Mac Daddy of 'em all.

    Stick around awhile, kid. image

    Seatedlibertykeys, or something like that.

    Gone. Nuked. Byebye.

    As long as you're "seatedcoins" and not a reincarnation of "seatedlibertykeys" or whatever the demon called itself, you're more than welcome.

    I likes me some Seated stuff.

    Hmm.

    There is also a member called "seatedcoin" who has posted a while back. The M.O. of seatedlibertykeys, seatedcoins, seatedcoin are basically all the same. A new member whose opening thread or thereabouts consists of a simple hello, along with a brief comment about something. Note also that "seatedcoins" appeared almost immediately after seatedlibertykeys has gone away.
  • seatedcoinsseatedcoins Posts: 1,096 ✭
    Sorry but I am not him and her. I can only say that if you read what I post you might be able to tell for yourself if what I post sounds like him or her. I'm assuming that if someone has been booted before their true colors would show before long.(by what they post)

    I missed the whole kerfluffle about seatedlibertykeys (or whatever the name was).

    So you're welcome here, regardless. Like you say, you shall be judged by your posts.

    And even if you WERE a reincarnation of a past forum demon, as far as I'm concerned, you'd still be welcome here, if you behaved yourself.

    (Assuming this past forum demon didn't rip any people off- I don't know.)

    But I believe you.

    Welcome, really. Sorry you had to join up and fall under suspicion through no fault of your own.

    my experience the last few years is that the next couple weeks for generic mid-level stuff, usually takes a dip of 10-20% and then gets back to full level by January 5th

    the top pops or truly exceptional pieces will always have big demand


    so back to your question, I would suggest buying for a couple weeks then start selling strong

    Thanks sinin 1,

    I've put off selling for now, just buying. There do seem to be better deals out now.
