    down a bit from last year, but to be fair, early last year i was selling tons of Morgans, and they were on fire for me.

    In the early days, you could get the prices you wanted for coins (or just about any item) with no picture but a good written description. A little later, if you wanted to get decent sales you HAD to splurge for pics. THEN in order to compete, you had to splurge for paypal. NOW if you wanna get anyone's attention, you better ALSO splurge for a gallery pic as well! So considering most of the coins i sell are $3-$15 each............. hmmmm, i think i'm operating at a loss!

    Non-existant - yet. Thinking of jumping back in. Time is the issue.

    I agree. The cost of selling has gone up considerably and has effectively eliminated the possibility of making anything on low price items.

    I have to amend my earlier assessment. Make that best month ever. I just beat the record I set August of last year.

    Since the fees went up, I have to ask if that is in terms of Sales of in terms of Profit? or Both.image

    Fee increase didn't take effect until today so it hasn't impacted yet.
