    Taking My Gold Caps To Market

    Unfortunately I'm going to have to part with my gold caps to help pay for my 4 year old's upcoming eye surgery (nothing major, thank goodness). I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys as to what you would start this auction at.

    I like the .01 or .99 but if your scared you could start it at $300 it should sell for around there I'd guess but I'm not a buyer

    Just to see what the true market value is of these..........Of course just one auction will not give us a good representation but this will just be for fun

    Should make this a poll, guess how much over scrap price they will sell for. I say $65.00 for all three.

    I hope you get top dollar Jeremiah...good luck on the upcoming surgery. eBay will probably do well for you, but the buyers on the forum seem to pay a decent amount too.

    Thanks everyone! I will post a link this saturday when I put the auction up. I'm going to start the bid at $300 (my luck, I would start at $.01 and it would sell for $.01,lol). I also need to do some research on keywords to use in my title and I'm thinking of making the buyer send me an email that confirms that what he is buying is indeed scrap not for reuse and possibly requiring a phone call.
