10. Bi-metallics on Ebay...by Joe Kocian, USA
I’m Joe Kocian a WBCC member and thought you might
find it of interest that I will be selling on eBay a large chunk of my
bi-metallic collection. I am not leaving the WBCC; it is just a matter
of today’s economics. I will start listing my items March 23, 2010 and
will add to the auction daily. I have over 250 items that I hope will
receive a good home. Most will have No Reserve and start at $0.99 US.
To find me on eBay my ID is: CVI-USA contact me
via email at jkocian@cvi-usa.com
