Considering 1/10 age are going for 120. 60 I don't think too bad. But if you did sell it for 80bucks, you'd make like no profit

Hi there-

Congrats. The gold bug won't leave you eva! I wouldn't necessarily buy to re-sell, however. It can be a frustrating experience. When you're buying, everyone's a peach. When you're selling, everyone's the pits. 1/20th of an ounce of gold is still kind of a specialty product, so dunno how it will go. I'm sure it will sell, but don't know how much profit. I say keep it!

Only when they CAN'T have it, ......THEN they'll want it.

I love Cents. If you get an UNC box, you win. If you get a regular circ. box, you win. If you get a zinc box, you don't lose....so you still win.

it sells for a decent premium on ebay. But shipping & fees will kill most of your profit. You may end up with $5-10 profit, depending how you ship & how you sell it.

I started off with a roll of 40% I got for 27.00. Sold for $40, added $20 and bought the 1/20th. So I have 47 in it. If it goes well, I can add a couple more and maybe get the 1/10th he has for $110. Guess I have to get around to listing it though... lol.

It all really starts with fractions. I'm now fixated on the sure bulk of the 1ozers

1oz = bulk

that's funny.

I guess if you go from 1 gram bars or 1/20 ounce bars than 1 oz is huge.

Kurr,

your profit might be 10 bucks or less after fees...I say keep it.


You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

I don't deal with bars, I only deal in rounds. And yes, compare the 1oz rounds to the fractional versions.
