    Ok, I'm the stupid one I guess. Is this Ebay item not a good deal? I have no idea what the value of these coins are!

    Go to http://www.collectors-society.com/registry/, then 1999 proof sets to date, look at 2005 and click on #3 set Full Year and you will see my NGC set put together for a lot less than $2000.

    Seller is a slug. Specializes in lowest tier grading and slabbing companies. Knows there's a fool born every minute. Has to keep bidders private for fear that friends would laugh at them for bidding. Always has $20,000 coins that he happily sells for $100-$150 if he can get it.

    First of all, the slabs are in non-respected slabs. These companys just shower their clients with MS70's and PR70's. Secondly, these coins can all be had in the exact same condition for the US mint for I believe $22.95. What these sellers do is keep quoting the PCGS price guide, which is nowhere near accurate. With this they try to squeeze out as much money from non-suspecting newbies, who think they are getting a super deal. For all those lurkers and newbies to the hobby out there, STOP BUYING THAT CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE GETTING BURNED!!!!!!!!!
