couldn't find any place where they were selling pennies, dimes, or nickles, or halves. Do they do this?

you would have to buy a mint set or proof set to get those items

IT's weird how they would sell quarters and not the others.

They sell the quarters because of the demand that arose when the state quarters frist came out. A lot of people started howling because due to uneven distribution they could not get the quarters from their local banks. So the mint started selling them directly to collectors, at a nice profit mark up. Later when the new dollars came out and again the banks didn't carry them the mint started selling them as well. I would not be surprised to see sales of half dollars start soon. Cents, five cents, and dimes get out to the banks fiarly quickly so I doubt if we will see sales of those unless the mint is convinced that they can make a big profit off of those as well.
