A lot of nice scores there, but I think you sold the 40% and 90% too cheap.

I think you sold a bit too cheap also. There's a shop where I live and they're paying 3.75 a pop for 40% right now. And that's a shop, so they buy them cheaper than they can sell them, I think they sell at 4.15 a pop

Good scores You earned them !
I think you did okay with the sales. High or low you are still making a good profit.

Sweet scores!

 

[timbobwey]

Yeah, he made profit either way. I think you can get a little more if you look in the right places. But profit is profit.

Thanks for the replies. I only sold because i needed some quick cash for bills. Otherwise, i would have shopped around more. HH-MM2

nice mm

 

[packerbacker]

Agree, a win is a win but I'd look around now for a place that pays more so when you get another stash together you will know right where to go. It's all good though huh? Nice hobby!

Nice scores, and when you have to sell, you sell. I didn't do much better than that last week when I sold 2 rolls of 40's. Then to add insult to injury, I had to pay a "sorting fee" when I upgraded to '64 Kennedys. ffd
