  • This is one for the books! I have bought a ton of coins and bullion collections over the years, but not one as varied and as unique as this one. Though there is no gold in this lot, the silver certainly makes up for it. From beautiful U.S. obsolete coins and currency to incredible foreign stuff to ancient coins and much more. Tons of 999 fine silver bullion of the highest quality.--Visit www.thesilverpicker.com to learn more!

      Eh. When selling to someone for resale, usually 50-65% is reasonable. Also, you don't know what other 'agreements' were made. Maybe Silverpicker is going to offer selling things to the viewer at a reduced cost, etc.

      Disagree. Not a ripoff at all. First off, the seller was a knowledgable coin collector and second, it will take me a year to sell everything and I won't actually get the full $825. Closer to $700. A 40% margin over the course of a year is not unreasonable for the risk.

      The life of an item in the retail market. Manufacturer sells widget to a Whole Seller for $2.00,Whole Seller sells Widget to Retailer for $4.00, Retailer sells Widget to consumer for $9.99, Customer uses Widget but needs to sell it but a secondary seller can only sell it for $5.00 because it's used, offers $2.50. Consumer gets angry because they paid $10.00 for the item, which is now used and they want their full money back, they get angry and walk out and end up selling the item for $1.00 in a yard sale. These are the people secondary sellers have to deal with on a daily basis. If he sells all of the collection, he may clear $200 ($600-$400) after discounting some of it and if he uses Ebay, roughly $100 will be lost in sellers fees and PayPal fees. If he keeps some of the items, like he said, he'll get back even less. All he showed was the values not what he's actually going to get for the coins. The seller may have gotten more by selling most of it for the silver scrap but that would destroy the coins and the History that goes along with it. Lets not forget, the seller was Ok with the price that was paid, meaning they got what they wanted out of it. Awesome collection but it would be a bit** to list lol. Personally i love the older 1st and 2nd century B.C. coins, the conditions don't make them very valuable but the history is unparalleled.

    Most people here don’t seem to understand the concept of selling in bulk. As silverpicker has said dozens of times, the seller he bought from was a knowledgeable coin collected who knew what the value of his collector was when he sold it. Selling items online individually takes time and a lot of effort, he has to pay shipping and ship off the individual packages which can be time consuming. Selling in bulk is selling all of your items at a discounted rate, not a rip off.

I have taken risks before, so I do understand how that goes. One time I bought a poorly written ebay auction for a half dollar collection with one crappy picture and a description that included "some of these are probably silver". I got them for essentially face value, and when I received them, they were almost all silver (mostly 90%, some 40%). I decided to split the difference with the guy and I sent him an extra payment through PayPal. Total stranger, totally unsolicited, and he was very grateful. In the end, I'd rather make someone's day, than leave them wondering if they've been ripped off...

    @silverpicker it is not the fact that you had to make money off the deal it is the fact that you could make double what you payed for it. Since you are claiming to have made the deal with an experienced collector you obviously gave him him a hard time because an expired collector would not let you make that much off a collection he is trying to turn a profit on. Not only in this irritating to people who look up to you, but it is also infuriating to see argue with you subscribers because you see it as a positive thing for you to rip him off so badly.

      You are entitled to do whatever you want, but he doesn't think it was a rip off. I even sent him this video and he was very pleased. You have to understand 3 things about this deal:
      1. The values listed are the eBay retail prices. You need to deduct about 13% for ebay selling costs. That brings the expected value down to $717.
      2. The seller is knowledgeable about coins and silver. He chose to sell it to me because it required no effort from him. He didn't have to spend any time waiting for buyers for individual pieces, spending more on shipping, and spending time running back and forth from the post office. He knowingly gave up cash for convenience. Something people do everyday when they choose to buy milk from the store instead of having a cow and milking it themselves.
      3. This is still much more than a pawn shop, jewelry store, or cash4gold place would offer him, meaning based on a market-pricing approach, this is a fair deal.

    Alot of these commenters are silly tho not realising every thing they buy from a grocery store has a minimal of 40-60% markup from what they paid for it. On top of that he WILL NOT get anywhere near 900 dollars for that due to that due to the fact i see coins selling on auction for wayy less than his quoted prices on ebay and ebay takes a % cut same reason pawn shops take a 60-80% profit on all sales id value the collection after sales and taxes at about 600 which is only a 200 dollar profit

      Disagree. He is a knowledgable coin collector who chose to sell all at once for convenience instead of spending time and effort parting it out to get top dollar. Moreover, it's a better deal than he'd get from pawn shops, jewelry stores, and cash4gold places. Finally, a 30-40% profit margin for me is not unreasonable...

    The first note from the second envelope at 20:50 is a Hungarian 1000 (ezer = thousand) Korona from 1923, overstamped to 8 (nyolc = eight) fillér in 1927, when the Pengő was introduced to change the Korona because of its hyperinflation. Then 12500 Korona worth 1 Pengő, so 1000 Korona worth 8 fillér (which was the "cent" for Pengő). In this condition that note worths about US$ 25.

    I know you have to make a profit, but this was just wrong. Especially for a loyal subscriber. You basically doubled your money. You should have at least thrown him an extra $150 with that "limited edition hand written post card." This video does not look well for your image and your channel. You should address it.
    Edit: I know you say that adult collectors should know what they have before selling, and how easy it is to find out the value nowadays. I agree with you on that and I agree if they don't do the homework its on them. However, in this case, I look at it almost like a friend. I understand that they technically are not your friend, but this person subscribes to you, supports you and watches your videos weekly. They feel like they know you, even though you don't know them from a whole in the wall, and that is why I think this was a bad play on your part. Would you have done this to a friend? Or would you have told them that they maybe had a little more than what they were asking for??

Those prices you listed are like full retail and then some for most. All very hard to sell stuff at those prices. Put it all on eBay with a 99 cent start price and I doubt you will make much - if anything. Don'r know the total melt value but my guess is you paid more than that. I think it was fair for both buyer and seller.

    No dealer or seller will ever pay top dollar retail, in any industry. And the seller knows that, and wasn’t forcer to sell. I don’t understand why so may negative comments? When you look at a coin book, values are for retail, so basically what it would cost you to buy it, not what you’re gonna get when selling it, unless you sell it retail to the end buyer. Idk? Just my “2 cents”, pun intended.
