<p>[QUOTE="trip98, post: 37878, member: 65"]Ebay is the best bet for getting the dollar amount closest to melt value. Beware though, silver scrappers are a picky bunch. I usually include photo of the items on a scale, list every item with said mark. Also, I include the same photo with receipt in the package sent. At first I didn't understand why scrabbers buy on such a small margin. Until I realized, ebay bucks and cc cash back saves up to 3% and many do small repairs and resell.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, there is a market for scrap silverplate!
