Did you get FMV? What kind of proof set sells for that much?

If you got FMV then you're ok, if not...........there are auction companies that will sell valuable items with no sellers fees. Now you know.

Do you mean $10k selling price? If you got market rate, with the total fees around $500-$600, then you should have done okay. hm

I never saw you post an advertisement in the BST Forum. While I don't have the funds to buy the entire set out right at the moment, there are a few coins that I would have paid strong money for outside of eBay.

If you have a dream about out-posting me, you better wake up and apologize.

Somehow I think you would have done better if the coins were sold individually.

Well, even though I couldn't buy any of those, I'm pretty sure I feel your pain. The set looks wonderful.

You mean to tell me that you only received $10k for the entire set that Robec linked? That would be a catastrophe. The PR65 CAMEO Trade dollar would be worth that much by itself.

I was just taking a stab. I'm hoping it's not true. \:p
