    Are there any better coin boxes out there than @Alun ones? Doubt it. Sleek, modern and quality build. Lovely way to house my Queen’s Beast bullion (plus completer 😏). I’m tempted to replace the gold completer with a platinum one seeing as its platinum jubilee year and all. Got the idea from @Stuntman. Still keep the gold one in a capsule of course. What do you think?

    Something a little spicy for the stack arrived today. Saw the 2018 for a good price and thought lets do a centenary bookend with a 2018.

    Outer box damaged on arrival (but coin seems to be okay)…I can breath out now!.
    Really feel sad for those that got a less than perfect coin today, I know there’s a few already, and I have previously fealt that pain.

    Love the coin
    HATE THE QUALITY
    Honestly, how does this happen over and over and over again.
    ALSO - CAPSULE OPEN ON DELIVERY.
    I would ask anyone else out there if you get something like this please send me the images as I intend to send an email to Anne Jessop and the Head of Customer Services a collection of all these issues for their immediate attention.

    I've not read this thread but have received a few mention notifications and I think I know what it's all about.
    Last year I sold a shed load of stuff.  I listed over 900 different items.
    As someone who has my own sub forum I made use of both that and the general sale forum.  Sub forums don't get the exposure like the normal sales forum does so to help highlight items listed in there I added a footnote to any sales threads I created in the normal sales forum.  That included a brief description and some hyperlinks to threads.  Each time I created a new listing I copied and pasted the old footnote and added the new link and removed any completed threads.  It only took a minute at most.   I also had a list, and still do, of all the items I have for sale along with pricing and links to their individual threads.  Although the original threads are now locked, people can still view them and I update the lists as and when items sell.  It's been 5+ months and even to this day I sometimes get the odd enquiry and sale to someone who's just come across the list and found something they're after.  Or someone who wanted something at the time but didn't have funds or someone deciding that they do want/need item x after all.
    Not only did I utilise my sub forum to prevent cluttering and spamming the main sales forum, I also grouped together items into single threads as much as I could.  Every item I sold was different but I did not want to flood the forum.  I didn't need a separate thread for each individual item.  I just grouped similar items together, unloaded pics, listed what they were along with prices.  I also kept the number of new listings a day to a reasonable level.
    If I didn't have a sub forum I would have still done it the same way.  A handful of listings a day with items grouped in lots.  Footer with links to my other threads.  The only thing missing would be a comprehensive list.
    As for bumping.  I only bumped a few threads a day whenever I remembered.  If I'd bumped every thread then everyone else's threads would be pushed down and that wouldn't have been nice.
    There was nothing stopping me from flooding the forum and bumping within guidelines but the sales forum would have been dominated by my threads and it wouldn't have been fair on others.
    I tried to be as considerate as possible.

    IMHO the way that @morezone went about selling a vast array of items was just about perfect. The sponsor/ Dealer sub-forum was put to the most effective use possible. The sponsor sub-forum that @arshimo2012 is another that has been used to great effect too, items can sell in a matter of mins if not secs, unfortunately there are hidden posts there too.
    I have a standard membership as i can be lost at sea (Note. no boating accidents) without internet data so most of the benefits i would use would be lost. 
    Having members that do post large amounts of sales could be more effective / successful following one of the above methods.
    I wonder how many visit the forum and go to @arshimo2012 automatically looking for a great deal as a first port of call? I know i do!
    I only buy now. I sold a batch of coins about 7 or 8 years ago and regretted it but it did get my gold stack/collection going.
    Just my viewpoint.

    Seeing as a few graded ASE’s have been shared today, I picked up my first and only graded coin last year when the ASE type 2 was first released. 

    This was back in June 2021 when I first started to get into this hobby and hadn't yet joined TSF, so I never got around to sharing.
    I have no idea if it was a good purchase or if it will hold its value / go up in value.  Just thought that as it was the first year of a new design it may have been a worthwhile purchase.
