  • WHAT??

    Why would we buy them again, a month from now, when we can buy them RIGHT NOW for the same price?
    This makes no sense.

    I see the date in the email for release is THIS year, not next. Maybe the email was sent out in error?

  • It sounds to me like they set these emails to go out a year later than intended.

    Hmmm...

    I got an email today, announcing the last chance to purchase UHR's, as the opportunity would end 12/31/09.

    But I already have mine... and at $1,539, that's nearly $400 more than I paid when I ordered it.

    Not quite as good a deal as the ASE '08/'07 Reverse, but I ain't cryin'!

    During the year, the mint raised the price seven times in $50 increments as gold bullion went up for a total price increase of $350.
