    Sorry about the huge image but this is stunningly annoyingly distracting slab!

    Wow. The words aren't even centered up on the label. Come on now.

    Too busy .... very distracting. They're missing the point; we are not promoting West Point :/

    What's that? Buy the coin not the label?

    I don't hate it but it is a little too much label. Maybe just the regular top portion and loose the rest.

    That's incredible.

    They were able to add one to a cart and check out in the 15 or so seconds that it was up? I tried on a super fast computer w/very high speed internet and wasn't able to check out in time. That's just incredible.

    Yep! They were using what is likely some of the fastest internet in Iowa. As a family they have gotten 4, with one of them buying 3 of the 4. They also didn't start trying until September 21st.

    How the heck do you add it to your cart when it's not available? Don't expect anyone to divulge their secret.

    I don't, you just have to refresh it and when it is available add it to the cart then.

    Kind of a multiple day project...

    ..add to cart....can't check out BUT it's there for a try on another day minus the add to cart step

    That's how it used to be.

    Now, it says invalid item in the cart and that does not change. You have to do the entire transaction at once in seconds.

    I'm amazed that they were able to do so. I went so fast this morning and missed it.

    So while everyone is busy trying their best getting one in their cart and then getting one purchased the next day.....has anyone noticed that the price has gone UP??? It's now up a hundred dollars selling for $1487.50 even though it's nearly impossible to get and is basically unavailable.

    Price is just based on the average Palladium value, which went up.

    "Unavailable" is not "sold out". As long as it is in the catalog, the price will be re-evaluated every Wednesday

    After getting 'invalid product' message several days, was only able to put one in cart by using a different device, probably a different IP address also.

    NO BULLION PALLADIUM IN 2018.

    I’ve been out of the country for a while, so maybe I missed this before?

    That likely doesn’t hurt the prices of the proofs I would think.

    Are these a new series now? Will they be making more next year?

  • MilesWaitsMilesWaits Posts: 5,349 ✭✭✭✭✭

    A lot of things don’t hurt the pricing of the proofs including the intrinsic beauty, Mitch!
    And, oh, the metal composition is Palladium. Try finding an earlier version of that combo.

  • cruisersk1cruisersk1 Posts: 190 ✭✭✭

    It's hard to tell why it's a 69 and not a 70. But then that is usually hard to tell.

    For what they charge for coin grading you would think they could add that information on your return paperwork. I mean, if they saw a flaw to make it a 69 they could take 10 seconds to note where the flaw was. Shoot, they could even charge like $5 for this service.

  • ObiwancanoliObiwancanoli Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭

    Submitted mine a week ago, still waiting on the grade... I did get my ASE 2008/2007 Rev's graded SP70 though... that's a bonus, and a Mark Twain Gold Unc at SP70 too... it was a good day yesterday, but can't find FMV's on these... even eBay is showing predominantly NGC's...

    Wanted to try something different.

    I just kept mine in my bag from yesterday and had everything set up to the place order button and at 7 30 AM just kept hitting the place order button. I never refreshed to see if it became available.

    That didn't work,

    So will start all over from scratch tomorrow.

    I still think these are gone in about 15 sec.

    For a $1500 coin always Registered Mail for me, anything less is open season. Might be more expensive and really slow but at least I have peace of mind.

    Apmex mentioned this too.

    I tried. Was able to add to cart but invalid by the time I was at confirm. I really don't know how people are able to add to cart and check out any faster than I am.

    The plane blue label kiss of death.... Flag label or one of the others but not the blue cert for now and it's only one that sold for that.. As for selling we never know what something will sell for , As for me if it sold for that it is what it is not right to pull it from the buyer it's just not right don't like it but I stand by my word and it is golden done deal win some lose some it's life.

  • wondercoinwondercoin Posts: 16,905 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I am afraid that Both the blue label and the flag label sold for that price.

    That price might look fairly strong a few weeks from now. That same Flag seller has about a dozen or more open bids already listed on EBay closing in the next week or so. Anyone want to bet a craft beer the flag 70s drop into the “$2,700’s” by this time next week?

    BINS now for $2800 for the blue label with Gold Shield.

  • 7over87over8 Posts: 4,733 ✭✭✭

    The top was seen for raws at 2,500 when at the same time PCGS FS 70’s we’re struggling to get 3,200
    It looks like the race to the bottom has begun. However, if most flippers are out of their “raws” and not in the grading game, then we may see stabilization. Anyway, I see a stabilization point around 2,650-2,700 for a short time; eventually falling to 2,300-2,400

  • wondercoinwondercoin Posts: 16,905 ✭✭✭✭✭

    7/8...

    Regarding 70’s- Nothing will be stable if one large seller continues to post a dozen or two open bids at $1 every 7-10 days with no end in sight. Whenever that stops, I also see a stabilization point for a short time. Perhaps followed by a rise in eBay selling prices just as possible as a drop.

    As always, just my two cents.
