Title: Going rate for "used DATs"???
Post by: twatts on August 10, 2010, 11:44:59 PM
Found a local on Craigs List that is selling his "used DAT" collection.  He was a trader long ago, but has quit and wants to recoup some of his cost.  What is a fair rate for his used DATs???   He has a bunch of PH that doesn't circ., I'd rather pay for "used DATs" than see them go into the garbage...

technically, an even trade for blanks is the highest going rate.  ;D

i would say stamps are the lowest.

but oh how times have changed.  :-X

A trader I knew did this several years ago, I think he asked something like $2 per DAT

IMO a nickel a piece is fair while a dime each would be top price.
