<< <i>I just was looking at a "Don't Tread on Me" PCGS insert. I was unaware of this. Apparently PCGS is for limited Gov't, so am I. July 19th is the cut-off date for FS right? After this date the entire box has to sent in unopened?
Like the idea behind the label more than the label itself. Would consider getting if it wasn't $100 more than the set I have pre-ordered. No label is worth $100 to me... LOL!
Question for you guys. I bought 5 sets, thinking of submitting for the FS label. Which means I have to join PCGS, pay for the shipping and submission fee's then hope I get some 70's. With my luck I'll up with 69's and 68's. When you account for the Ebay/PP fees I don't see much potential for profit, unless your talking 100 sets. The other half is saying to keep in the unopened box. I still have some time to think it through before the cutoff date.
Here is an interesting thought from the US Mint News Blog:

July 8, 2013 at 7:41 pm Some numbers to think about and is the Mint, just being down right dishonest. I ordered a single set around 8 the first day. According to the Mint, they sold 138,514 sets the 1st day, leaving at “least” 142,796 sets sold AFTER my order. So why did I get a email telling me this set will be shipped 9/17 which is the last day they well be shipped. How do I know this is the last day of shipping? Because I also ordered one in the last few hours, which well be shipped 9/17. Just why wouldn’t this set be shipped midway through the shipping process, LOL.

The regular population report was updated on Monday again. 69 70 total Enhanced....842 (31%)....1870 (69%)....2712 Rev PF.........926 (33.6%)..1830(66.4%).2756
So the regular population numbers have caught up to the registry numbers....but probably not for long. Still, a 2 to 1 advantage for a 70 grade (discounting those 68 and lower which aren't reported yet)

I got an order in around 4pm the first day. I got an email saying the order will be shipped on 8/9. Currently, the cancel box is still there and nothing is in stock and reserved so far->which indicates to me (just a guess) they are still processing orders for 8/9 prior to 4pm. I've got a couple of other orders that show a projected ship date of 9/17->I'm kind of worried that the sets I receive on 9/17 are going to be previously returned sets although I hope not!
Just spoke to goldmart. They have received their sets and they are at ngc being graded now. Sounds like shipping should start in a week or two. Hope that helps.

Then, the membership fee (but there are more benefits and just submission rights), grading/FS fees, shipping fees and rolling the dice for 70's!!!
It is a tough decision. I wanted 70 sets and bought 70 sets. Flipped a few for a small profit to reduce the cost of the ones I want to keep. >>
not sure how you arrived at those figures...
ebay....6%...minus 20% refund for FVF paypal....about 3%
total fees...less than 9% >>
I believe they raised their fees again, at least on BIN listings. They now charge a flat 10% on all sales of bullion. It surprised the crapola out of me. Go use their calculator, select coins/bullion and plug in $400. The fee is $40.00.
"This spring, eBay will virtually eliminate the basic upfront cost to list for all sellers—here's how: with eBay's new everyday rate plans, all sellers get FREE listings* every month—fixed price or Auction-style. There's a plan to meet the needs of all sellers. For one low monthly fee you can subscribe to an eBay Store and get from up to 150 to 2,500 free listings*, with final value fees simplified to just five competitive category-based rates from 4%-9%*. With eBay standard rates, you still get up to 50 free listings per month—now either fixed price or Auction-style—and one simplified 10% final value rate*. Choose the plan that's best for you."
So, if you don't have a Store that you have to pay a monthly fee for, then you have one simplified 10% final value rate*.

I had to open them, guess I'll just keep em. I can't see spending $400 + more dollars for submission/Ebay/PP/shipping fees for an opinion that will more than likely be MS69. Not to mention a buyer that isn't happy and wants a refund because there is a scratch on the slab. That would be my luck I did join PCGS today and will be sending in some other stuff to be slabbed.

Some of the EP's have deeper fields than others. The one I imaged has deeper obverse mirrors than the reverse. I spent a good amount of time examining them with a 2x, 5x and 10x loupe. IMO I felt 2 sets were 70 caliber and one RP was that of a 70. I spent about 5 minutes per coin and cataloged every single little blemish, then reviewed them again. I need help

I find that hard to believe. It only takes 100 sales per year with a total of $1000 in sales. Monthly fee is either $14.99 or $19.99 & if you're a top rated seller, eBay refunds you 20% of your FVF.

Most likely a waste of time counting the 70 FS POP's at this time. Dozens of dealers each have thousands of sets at PCGS to be graded. Once they catch up and fully update the POP's it will jump into the tens of thousands for first strike. And if the market does not drop too fast total 70's could approach 50,000.

I would love to see the numbers stay that low but expect the total FS 70's from PCGS to easily reach 10,000. The NGC Early Release will probably be in the 15,000 - 20,000 range. Add in the ANACS 70's and the total could top 30,000. Just my projections from what I have seen and heard. I hope I am incorrect.

The $19.90 option, allows you to cancel your store any time. The $14.90 option is for a 1 year contract. Even if you only plan on selling for a month or two, you'll need to do the math to see if saving 4% of eBay fee is worth your effort after including the $19.90 store fee. Don't forget, the 20% refund of your FVF, if you're a "top rated" seller.

SHIPPING UPDATE: For customers who have placed pre-sale orders, or are planning to purchase NGC Certified Sets, they are in stock and sets will start to ship today.
For customers who have placed pre-sale orders, or are planning to purchase PCGS Certified Sets, due to logistical issues at the U.S. Mint, and the bottleneck at PCGS, sets will be delayed and should ship the week of July 21st.

Financially, yes, it could make sense after a bit, however, if one were to just sell for a month or two a year, then maybe one doesn't want to mess with a store..... >>
The $19.90 option, allows you to cancel your store any time. The $14.90 option is for a 1 year contract. Even if you only plan on selling for a month or two, you'll need to do the math to see if saving 4% of eBay fee is worth your effort after including the $19.90 store fee. Don't forget, the 20% refund of your FVF, if you're a "top rated" seller.

For customers who have placed pre-sale orders, or are planning to purchase PCGS Certified Sets, due to logistical issues at the U.S. Mint, and the bottleneck at PCGS, sets will be delayed and should ship the week of July 21st.
