Will News Story Cause Copper Price Spike?

Postby beauanderos » Tue Dec 06, 2011 3:04 am

I thought I would check out recent sales on ebay to determine if the average value of winning bids has gone up since the story aired. Surprize! There have been NO sales of CTU's in that time frame. There was one sold several days before, and look how much reward that sorter made for all his time and effort...

That's cause he doesn't do FREE shipping. Everybody knows all eBay buyers expect you to ship these bricks for free. :mrgreen:

Not sure where you got your numbers but if you look at the completed section under copper bullion you will see there was a sharp rise in prices.....of course this will most likely be short lived.

I looked at $100 copper cents in the completed section. I'll have to look under copper bullion as you suggest.

I looked under copper bullion and only found a bunch of unbid upon rounds. There was one listing for $100 face value with a start bid of $150 and it didn't sell??? Where is the info you're talking about?

Dec 4th is the day you want to look at.

10lb lots going for 30+
$100 lots going for $160+ when they were not even selling for $150


98 pennies selling for $50! http://www.ebay.com/itm/98-LINCOLN-PENN ... 336f0e14af Very odd....



Like I said short lived 1 day spike....

I actually sold a 50 lber and a 10 lber this past weekend. So I attribute that to the the coverage Friday Night. I could be wrong but was happy none the less.

I don't know if odd even begins to describe that auction...

98 LINCOLN PENNIES DATED THROUGH 1982 95% COPPER, VALUING AT OVER 200$ FOR BULLION.

Now if he meant $98 face value of pennies it would make sense. But he has 98 cents pictured and described twice. :?

Not only that it's his all time e-bay high price for a CTU.

Coincidence?
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.
