Teletrade has only 3 listed auctions in the next 6 days

YaHa

Did anyone hear of problems at Teletrade, I see only 3 auctions listed as of today and the last couple there was not alot of inventory being auctioned off.

I've seen this before and just think its indicative of the auction business.

I think they just have to catch up. They have much more than usual in this Sunday's Half Eagle section.

What did you buy? A gold coin? $35 that is not bad compared to my $12 frankie with juice and shipping I paid $25 only in America

Maybe this is a sign that their high buyer/seller fees are eating into their consignments. I stopped consigning to them for that reason. Now I rarely buy from them as well.

Teletrade is probably our best option to buy and sell coins. Ebay is a freaking joke. Wanna talk about fees? Listing fees, final value fees, paypal fees. driving to the post office, envelopes, packing materials. dealing with ahole buyers? Hell I'd rather pay a straight % of the sale price to people who do ALL the work for me while I sit back and watch. And as far as their buyer fees I agree they are a little steep with the $8 min. they need to drop that and just go 12% across the board. Return fees are almost a necessary evil since alot of people would take advantage for an example see what the flippers do to the US Mint.

they have auctions that close on Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday


on rare special occasions one may show up on Tuesday, Friday or Saturday


how many auctions would you expect in any 6 day period?



Most auctions I go to are -> if you have high bid it is yours (as is, where is, in condition it is in)
if you do not understand those terms, you should not bid/buy


if you want a frickin approval service, buy from Littleton

If Teletrade wasn't such a dumping ground for unwanted dealers' crap, It can be a viable alternative to ebay..
