<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joe2007, post: 2507996, member: 1262&quot;]Has anyone else noticed this? An increase of &quot;Live-Streamed Auctions&quot; on YouTube channels and on Facebook with users placing their bids with a comment in the stream. Please note that I say &quot;Auctions&quot; since these people are not licensed professional auctioneers. I first noticed this on YouTube several years back with a few channels selling coins/numismatics but now several small antique/resale/consignment shops in my area have gotten into the act selling a wide range of goods.</p><p><br /></p><p>I expect that many more will continue getting in on the action since the prices realized seem to range from really good for the seller to insanely good for the seller. For example $20 silver dollars normally sell for $35/$45 on these platforms and I know one of these YouTube &quot;auctioneers at the local coin show where he is always purchasing tons of junk to sell to ravenous online buyers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Has anyone else seen this? Your thoughts? Will the states crack down on these &quot;auctions&quot; since they are currently totally unregulated and likely unlicensed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
