    I have no idea how high these will go even though they are still available, but it looks like there are plenty of people out there who don't know they too can buy from the mint. Imagine what happens when these sell out.

    Anyone want to bet it's a shill bidder? Check out the similar names of bidder/seller. Coincidence???

    even so...there are still at least two people willing to pay over $30 for this item.......I still think these will go through the roof when they sell out.....which will be soon I imagine since shipping has already been pushed from June 9th to June 11 since they went on sale.

    Well, my mint order says that the 2 sets I ordered are on "backorder". I wonder if people are bidding on E-Bay because they think that the Mint will subsequently tell a lot of the people on "backorder" status that their orders cannot be filled and are cancelled.

    Given what happened earlier in the year it would not be a stretch, right?...image

    I think almost everyone who ordered the first day will get theirs....at 5 per person/household....I think everyone will be safe....But I imagine that come June 7th, when limits would be lifted, these will be sold out.

    To bad you can't add comments to auctions to clue these folks into the Mint for purchases.

    well I guess every order early and now are backorder at this time . I orded mine like 15 min after it's available, and it's still said backorder when I track it in usmint.

    after june 7, I guess dealer will take all it has left, and the price will jump.
