This is getting a bit expensive. I wonder, do to the price increases, if this will stop a lot of potential buyers and leave that many fewer sets for this inaugural year?

In the Proof Set you get one Proof Pres for one dollar...a one for one on the coin. It's no 15% increase. This is a great deal. I wish it would translate to the silver Proof Set(?)
United States Mint Silver Proof SetTM - $44.95 (+$7.00) 14.8% increase Face value increase by $4 that leaves a $3 increase. How much has silver increased?
United States Mint 50 State Quarters Proof SetTM - $13.95 (-$2.00) 14% decrease No change in face value, but the cost of materials increased. Yet the price went down.
United States Mint 50 State Quarters Silver Proof SetTM - $25.95 (+$2.00) 7% increase What is the increase in silver spot?
United States Mint Uncirculated Set® - $22.95 (+$6.00) 26% increase Face value increased by eight dollars so this is a net decrease.

Taking into consideration the added dollar coins in the proof sets and the increase in silver prices, I don't think the price increases are out of line at all. If anything, adjusted for inflation and silver prices I think the premium charged for these sets over face/silver value has dropped a bit.
