thanks, all y'all for the input~ It took me awhile to respond cuz I was off for a week for a long needed break w/ the fam to Fort Myers. Rested my achin' back/neck in the pool and sea. Worked wonders!! anyways, I have been looking some more and probably will not risk the 2 oz on eBay, not worth the upside on it to take the risk.
yup, Sean, I still have the B&M I run for my dad, still slavin' away. I am trying to make the most of it thou', I have cut myself too close over the years, so am trying to actually make it work a little smoother if that is possible. 'Ole habits die hard so it remains to be seen. Right now my back room looks like "hoarders are us", silverplate and junk jewelry all over the place, so much stuff to list, so little time, buying much more than I can get rid of fast enough.
Stupid to complain about too much stuff tho, have to figure out how to sell it in big lots maybe to the 'middle man?? That is always the dilemma however, since to get the best money out of some items it is sort of best to sell eaches.
anyways, I should maybe put some of the gold in my case (we call it that, I mean the glass shelves we have in a tiny showroom) I just shy away from that since I get losers who somehow get into my shop at night just to look around and leave-climbing out the hole they came in at whether it is a busted window or a literal hole in the wall!! We have bullet proof glass, security since we have to record stuff when we buy it and so on, but I still just hate to have my cases loaded with gold esp.- so I may end up selling some of the items to the regulars, they may end up getting some fabulous looking bullion-so to speak.
