Title: Some People !
Post by: accumulator on August 22, 2013, 01:55:29 PM
As everyone knows i was selling the B counterstamp $1 coins,well after i got coins for all who wanted them here,i got to thinking that if i could make a few extra bucks on them on ebay i might as well give it a go & maybe make enough to buy a nice error coin or high grade slabbed coin or just a nice raw coin even,so i went back to the Ekka & got more coins,i was starting them at $9.95  with $2 post ,some got bids & a fair few sold at the opening bid.
If buyers won multiples i was still combining postage& sending for the $2.
Well my stars came up today , 4.8 for postage costs & 4.9 for postage time,i post things within minutes of payment received if they pay before 2pm when the mail is cleared here,if after 2pm then i post the next morning,ya can't please everyone i guess.
they are selling at around the $15 mark now so i just listed some more with free post to try to fix my stars a bit :close_tema: LOL

Not bad... But I couldn't help noticing this back in March...

"2 X 1966 Virtually Uncirculated double bar variety Silver 50 cent coins"

Variety? Were you asleep when you posted that? :)

You can't win mate, there's always going to be someone you can't please. You didn't mention the listing is for only one coin, maybe they thought they were getting the entire 10,000.
I received my B's thank you thank you wonderful service 5 stars *****

I wouldnt worry too much about the postage stars ,its the negative feedback that the buyers

Accumulator, I'm not sure that free post will help the 4.8 on post cost as I don't think they can leave a rating for cost if it's free post.

PPH, yes the 'roll' fiend ....... that sort of thing makes my blood boil.

Thanks PPH, i feel better now. :good:
Fulvio,if there not a variety what are they ?, Their not an error,possibly a flaw ? :huh:
Everybody refers to them as the double bar variety as far back as i can remember.
Or do you believe there's no such animal as i've heard that from a couple of other people ?

Yeah i reckon your right Uni, but free post is a good thing for this particular listing,as i'm pretty well ahead at the end of the day.

Thanks for the support & replies guys.:good:

The only trouble with adding the postage cost onto the sale price is that your ebay
final value fee will be higher as they dont charge it on postage.

Its not a variety because they were all like that.

Then they took the bars out, and somehow they slipped back in in 1979 & 1980, which were varieties. :)

Its a variety in my mind. There are two varieties, the double bar and the no double bars.
