    True, I was just hoping. They will probably wait another week atleast to make sure our checks clear and packing them probably takes some time.

    Where are the rest of TGC's?


  • << <i>Ankur ... I was just told by the head of PCGS Customer Service that the very cheapest method to submit these coins through the collectors' club is regular line plus $18 for FS or $48/coin ($240/set). No modern or economy submissions are permitted for these.

    Wondercoin >>



    In the case of the A-Mark coins that are already in PCGS FS holders Will PCGS charge for FS again if they are sent in for grading? I assume that this would not be considered a regrade since they were never graded in the first place.
    I'd keep playing. I don't think the heavy stuff will be coming down for quite a while!

    Has anyone who was supposed to hear from A-Mark about buying a set tomorrow, by e-mail today (Monday) no later than 2 PM EST, heard yet?

    I ask because a friend of mine made the list but has not heard anything back from them. He tried calling whatever number they gave him to call if he didn't receive the code/password/whatever he would need to buy on Tuesday but all he got was a recording that said he should leave a message.

    Thanks!

  • Do you have to explicity request for the PL designation from NGC, or do they automatically assign it if it grades that way? Thx

    You don't have to ask them for it. They will call it PL if they determine it meets their standard. I just had some moderns graded PL w/o asking them to do so.

    Limiting the 'first strike' and such on this 2010 coin set is just BS Marketing crap. They were all made and released to the AP's at the same time. These greedy TPG's will not stop. You'd think some of the Associations would seriously say something to them. Or as mentioend here, the lawsuit's they went through a little while ago would do something. Suppose you can blame the collectors that pay a premium for them, when the mean nothing too.

    what-ever.

    << <i>Geeze, away from the computer for 24 hours and the ER PLs arrive out of nowhere to (IMHO) be the clear kings, the set presales are sub-$2K and heading down, the singles are up from last Sunday, and it looks like I'd better sell the PCGS 69s while the gettin's good and hope for an ER PL set. What a roller-coaster.... >>



    Roller coaster weekend for sure, with the surfacing of the NGC 69PLs (I still think PCGS 69 will end up being the champions though) roller coaster prices, AMark updates, and that Fidelitrade update that nobody noticed until a day later...

    Love em or hate em, this has been some great drama. >>



    PF-

    I'm very interested in your comment regarding the PLs vs the PCGS 69s. My goal has been to complete a set of PCGS 69s to keep.
    Then the PLs came along. I was basing my contention that the PLs would be king based on the UHRs. The NGC 70PLs - not to mention the 70PL ERs - are far and away the kings, even over the PCGS FS AND in the case of the UHRs the FS window was limited.
    Given the UHR situation, why do you feel that the PCGS 69s will rule?
    Also, does anyone know what the pops are for the NGC PLs (i.e, what percentage are getting PL)?

    Thanks, R- >>



    R--I think it depends on how the populations all pan out. I think I spoke prematurely on that last post.

    Excellant just as i thought, i mean really PRE sales that are being done now are crazy, it could be 4 to 6 more weeks before another puck hits the floor. I guess i am old school i need something in hand before selling it, who is gonna be the first to start listing presales for the mints version, heck were only 6 to 8 weeks away from that image Oh yeah does anyone know when you do a presale does that money get released or does the seller have to wait till the box is shipped?image

    ther have been pre-sales for teh mint versions. yes, crazyness.

    and many of the pre sales have asked for payment now. Even one wrote out in the listing, that 'you are gambling the price will go up, I am fine with that. same if the price goes down, no refunds.'

    The $ gets released right away, barring the 100 feedback rule...Thus, what generally happens is if and when this stuff doesn't get shipped in a timely fashion, regardless of whatever JimJo Bob writes in the listing the buyer gets pissed as he/she sees a flood of inhands going for likely way less than their order which is in limbo...they get a refund and dish out a Neg...image

  • Just got my 2nd email from Fidelitrade .... "Order Acceptance"

    I was in the Friday 230p USPS delivery group.

    Guess they'll be comin' my way in a couple of weeks.

    Let's see....MTB............order approved..check cashed
    ..................Fidelitrade..order approved..check not cashed
    ..................A-Mark........order confirmed..PayPal "completed"

    VERY confusing.....but it looks better in print

    In my opinion, these will be like the first couple of spouse coins.... sell outs and crazy prices then, melt plus a small premium now. It is funny to watch the artificial enthusiasm brought into new series drive the price upwards initially. It's kind of like the frenzy of tech IPO's before the dotcom bust.

    I would think the bullion versions are always going to be higher than this years because if I was buying silver I think I would make these my coin of choice.

  • Dollar2007Dollar2007 Posts: 759 ✭✭✭
    I really like the Silver Eagle design, so buying purely on design will depend on each park, but I like the size of the coin and the fact that the potential for possible numismatic value later would be higher with these.

    My buddy's joy upon being told that he was one of the 250 is rapidly drowning in the concern that, as of 5 minutes ago, 6:45 EST, he's received nothing and gets the same message your friends and family get they call.

    Those in the 250 sets were to recieve their second e-mails with the code today or call after 2:00pm. I finally got through and they are still working on the e-mail and expect it to go out sometime this evening. If you were notified that you were in the 250 you are still good to go.

    Just asking... Because of the designs? >>


    If one is buying five or more ounces of silver, it will be more economical to buy the ATB coins than to buy individual ASEs. That's not the case this year because of the low mintages, but it will be in future years when they are minted to demand. I expect some of the ASE buyers will switch over to ATBs.

    On to the $1000 beer money and the ATB set from Amark to keep.

    I've speculated enough on these ATB 2010 bullion sets, time to bank it and get out at my comfort level. I'm behind the curve of others who have played much earlier; I'm not sure what will happen with the 2010 ATB market forward, others can enjoy the game, not me.

    The spouse coins were over hyped and eventually killed off by Gville...They were the coinsantiques of the spouse coins, but on a much larger scale. They acquired 1'000's of spouse coins and sold them all at the same time, we talk of a flood but that was Noah's Ark...image

    Good luck with keeping your buyer happy while he waits and waits and waits for his coins. I'd never sell something knowing full well it could be over a month till I get the coins in hand. I suspect MANY pre-sales will fall through when buyers see the prices heading down several hundred dollars in the coming 2-3 weeks. I see the negatives and Paypal disputes going thru the roof in the coming weeks.
  • 7over87over8 Posts: 4,733 ✭✭✭
    I agree

    Good Luck on those pre-sales. Your buyer will definitely get antsy and want his money back if prices fall from here and you havent delivered yet.....
