RE: Tips and tricks from an eBay seller (edit: will update original post till we get a wiki)
@louis-redfoot Thanks again, Louis. I will look into the site you mentioned. As an aside, it is important to me that it is understood that the items I have access to are all legitimately acquired goods with verifiable paper trails. Of course I understand that sellers will not generally reveal their sources, because it exclusivity protects sales channels. This is not so much an issue in my situation as my source is not seeking channels to sell the product. Again, thanks for your thoughts.

RE: Tips and tricks from an eBay seller (edit: will update original post till we get a wiki)
@ma-barker Hello, Ma, thanks for the tip. I am indeed a newbie insofar as selling precious metals and gems online. In fact, I have never sold anything online, but now have access to an older fellow’s residual stock of fine jewelry following his retirement. He is well off financially, thus in no particular hurry to liquidate. If I were to receive an order, it would take me up to three business days to ship, due to the mechanics of retrieving the item. I am concerned about fraudsters as I was once victimized as a buyer. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

RE: Tips and tricks from an eBay seller (edit: will update original post till we get a wiki)
@louis-redfoot Thanks, Louis. I have access to well over a hundred thousand dollars worth of new, mostly 14k jewelry, often including gems. The owner is no longer active in the trade, and the items are available to me on relatively short notice (a few business days). Because they are new items, almost all with tags, I am interested in selling below normal discounted retail (which is 3X melt plus stones), but don’t want to leave tons of money on the table. Basically, I’d like to sell the items giving a good deal to customers while making a modest profit, but if I price items too low, potential customers will likely doubt the quality of the products (which is actually quite good).
As for gold coins, I have none to sell. Thanks again for your thoughts. -
