Can I sell my geocoins on ukgeocachers.co.uk

Written by Kathrine

Sell your geocoins on our site

We offer a very successfull sales service to anyone who has had a geocoin minted. Let us take the hassle out of packaging and distributing your geocoins.

How does it work? Well for a modest fee of only 15p per coin plus associated expenses we can take the headache out of packaging up coins, standing in long Post Office lines and having to buy your own packaging materials.

We source packaging materials in bulk so can get them in very cheaply, we also have a proven track record of offering this service to others. In the past we have assisted in the sale of the D'arcy geocoins and all of the Lancashire geocoins together with some Wykenwizard geocoins. We have a lot of traffic and in particular lots of geocoin collectors keep an eye on our site looking for new coins and as we ship globally there is a huge market out there looking for your geocoin.

So how does it work?

It really is incredibly simple, as we said earlier the service will cost you justy 15p per geocoin plus shipping and sales expenses. An example of these expenses are shown below:

Item Value Remarks
Price of the coin
(A)
£8.00 We sell geocoins with free P&P
 
VAT @17.5% £1.19 We have to charge VAT on sales
Postage £0.47 Royal Mail Second Class
Packaging £0.15 Padded Envelope, Invoice & Address Label
Fee £0.15 Our Labour Charge
FeePaypal fees £0.43 is £0.20 + 2.9% of sale price
Total expenses :
(B)
£2.39 This is all the costs above added together
 
You get back :
(C)
£5.61 Which is the sale price less the expenses above. C = A - B

What now?

Just get in touch with us to let us give you an accurate prediction of what you will get back for the sale of your coin. You tell us how much to sell it for (remembering the free P&P) and we can let you know how much you would get back from the sale of each geocoin after our expenses are covered and we take our 15p fee.

You decide how often we pay you and how we should do so. Available options are UK Cheque, Paypal or Nochex. Please bear in mind that Paypal or Nochex will charge you a fee to receive a payment from us and you will be liable for that and not us.
