At least two years ago, their format
for listings was cumbersome, long,
frustrating. (looked it up - it was 12/15)
They flew a very nice gentleman down
to our office and he spent almost the whole
day showing my assistant how to list the coins
faster/smoother, but it was still took a long time
to list one item.
We did put up 50 lots, and never got a sale
or even an inquiry.
I went to the error section this morning, and
all of the error coins listed there are at extremely
high prices -
We tried, we wanted to see if Amazon would be
another good platform for us, but it just wasn't
user friendly, and although they might have improved
their customer base for coins in the past two years,
we're not ready to try it again.
