I found this on e-Bay yesterday and wondered if anyone has used this?

He even has a video showing it in action. Definately slower, and not as great of a design, but I don't have the money to spend on the Ryedale right now. I hand sorted 8 boxes last week, and just wanna find a cheap, and effective alternative to Ryedale.

Any suggestions to a new member?

think it's too slow. If you're sorting 8 boxes a week,You should be able to hand sort 50 rolls in an hr anyways. So why buy a sorter that costs money and may make you lose on on wheats etc

Thanks, I would maybe consider buying it to do halves and things like that. I'm not sure if I can order halves at Woodforest Bank, but I do know they don't keep them offhand. They also told me they're gonna charge me $.03 a roll to order them. I just go to BB&T and ask for a hundred dollars of pennies, and have no problems!

Welcome to the forum, Joogaler. First off, never ever ever pay to order coins. It's a waste. Second, if you want a machine, get a Ryedale. The Ace is much better in quality than that, and I'm sure it can do coins just as fast. Ask Country, he loves his. Third, you don't need a machine to do halves. Either rim-check, like I do, or date-check, like some others do. Very fast and very accurate. Good luck hunting.

Thanks, yeah when they said 3 cents a roll I was thinking wtf? That's $6 for $100 worth of rolls! Just another way for banks to screw us... Yeah I'm sure It's faster just to rim check, I didn't even think about it that way. Anybody got any ideas other than e-bay to sell my coppers? I'm fed up with their fee's as well...

I was going to go with eBay last week, but just to see, I dropped an ad on Craigslist. In just a few hours, I had someone interested. A few hours after that, I got 1.4x face for a few hundred pounds of copper.

I thought about trying craigslist, I live in the middle of nowhere in NC but when I gather some more copper I'll try putting some up there. I really appreciate the help, I'm 19 and trying to make a little money without having go to work for Ronald McDonald!

I'm 18, and yeah, that boost of cash really made me feel good. But, I had my first ever job interview today at the public library, so that would be nice as well. Good luck with those pennies.

The Ace is a much better way to go!

forget it ...I bought one of those units and used it for ten minutes then went back to hand sorting....then I bought an Apprentice off of craigslist . Save your dough and order an ACE ...that seems to be the way to mechanize the sort the most economical way .

Cheers..I am on my way to the CU to dump three buckest of pennies and I forgot my dolly....

I see the apprentice is $500, but how much is the Ace? I don't see it listed on Ryedales site, and couldn't even find a price googling it!

Just message Andy at Ryedale or he is Ryedale on here. He can hook you up with an Ace. I don't think he advertises them yet, you need to find out about it through the forum.

And innocents is lost…….alas……work.

However, may be a good place to weed through some copper during down time

Corsair you are only 18... thought you were older. I feel so old! ...I guess that is because I am, LOL!
