Selling scrap sterling silver best way?

[Coppercrazy]

Looks like I might need to sell off some sterling to pay off some bills. I used to occasionally list scrap on ebay (haven't for a few years) where I think you loose about 10% in fees,then of course back then stuff would go for about 15% under as I recall. Midwest refineries claims to pay 90% which seems like a decent offer-considering ebay -if bidders are only paying 85% to 90% then your'e hit with fees-isnt it better to go direct to a refiner? or are people paying 100% or more melt on ebay like how the premiums are crazy stupid on junk silver? Im looking to sell 3 to 5 pounds and it is all scrap or crappy monogrammed silverware no jewelery or collector value.

selling it on realcent is the best way. I would list it on here at 90% of spot, and I bet you will sell it. If you post some pictures that really helps. I like functional sterling, especially flatware.........I would be somewhat interested myself to see what you have.
