20th anniversary Two Coin Set Box Up to $156

I guess the mint packaging WAS worth over $110!!! foor all those that returned their sets because the felt that the mint was gouging them on the packaging, check out his ebay auction. Just the box is up to #156!!!! Holy smokes:

    The 2 pce box should be the easiest to buy fill and screw your neighbor with.

    Being that the coins that went in it can be bought as singles, there is nothing other than self pride to stop someone from buying the box, filling it and selling for a large profit.

    Buyers of raw sets beware be VERY AWARE~!~!!!!!!!!

    Where is the large profit???

    If the raw coins cost $700 or so, what is the set bringing???? $850

    If you buy the box for $150, pay $700 for the coins, I don't see a windfall.

    The point is: the coins plus the box is greater than the purchase point from the mint. Everyone who sent their sets back and purchased the coins separately do not have the nice packaging. If they now want to place their two coins in a 20th anniversary box, they'll have to ante up MORE thatn they had to if they just kept their original order.
