Selling Old Coins

Philippines
July 28, 2011 11:38pm CST
I am planning to open up and e-bay store and start selling old coins. I have a lot of old coins at home and who knows if I am keeping a "fortune" in one of these coins. I have been thinking of things to sell at e-bay and there, I bump into the coin reserves we have at home. I really hope to make money from this old coins I have. The money that I will be getting from this coins will then be spent into a new business venture I am planning to do soon. Hope this one works for me.

hi joie. that's a good idea. you might not know it yet but perhaps those old coins are really worth something. i would suggest that you research online to determine the true value of those coins. you may also go to a trusted antique dealer and have them take a look at what you have. by the way, how'd you get hold of those coins and how many do you have? hope it pans out right for you joie. do keep us posted. cheers!!!

the bit about you going to an antique dealer reminds me of that series 'pawn stars'. watched the show a couple of times but was never really hooked to it. anyway, they did have a couple of interesting items sold to them including old coins.

I hope you will have a good business. I would like to let you know that Ebay will charge you some fees every month even if you haven't sold anything yet. As in the past I also tried to sell something via the net but I didn't know this rule. It is too bad that they charged me some fees but I haven't sold anything yet. It makes my cost higher. I love China

It's a nice idea. Old coins can be sold for a big price since some people are collecting it and place it in a museum. It's a good start to sell. I am also in ebay but I don't know what to sell. I hope you will be successful in your plan. Good luck!
