    Maybe you could start you own foundation. Maybe the CCA---Chronic Complainers of America.

    BTW--the people at MCM are smart.

    Yes, they will most likely acquire more of these with the profits at a lower price.

    Are they really this stupid, or are they destroying the dollar on purpose?

    Thank you, John.

    Great part of numismatics is that a large dealer will communicate with the consumers on a Saturday night.

    Doubtful that Tim Cook or Bill Gates would do the same. >>



    Why would you try to get Bill Gates anyway? You have something you need with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation?
    That's been his focus for the last 15 years, since he gave up the reigns at Microsoft. >>

    If it hits $14.50 I think it'll see 11-12 quickly after just from fear factor selling.

    Actually I don't think they will at prices low enough to have any effect on corporate earnings. I was referring to the marketing and distribution. A superb effort at taking market share from a weak(ening) competitor.

    Yeah, and unlike the above, Modern Coin Mart did not pick through them for the 70s and push off the rejects to unsuspecting customers.
    Good job John, I hope you have gained some converts here because you and MCM deserve it!

    Since right now JMBullion is at about $418 a roll dlvd [5 rolls or more] $424 for 3 rolls dlvd, I'd say $400 isn't too bad.

    Regarding 10% off coupon - sorry for late reply, did not pay attention to the forum due to snow storms in NYC :-)

    This is the first time I've got this offer - it's Ebay coupon.
    I've got no emails and no indications I've had it till I was looking at some other coin in Ebay with BIN around $1500
    Somewhere down below the BIN price it had a little link with "Get $100 off this price - click for details"
    When clicked it highlighted something like use this XXX code at checkout to get 10% off up to $100 if you're using PayPal effective till midnight"
    I just copied the code and used it for MCM rolls and it did took off $100 for 3 rolls...

    And once again - thanks John and MCM for a great deal !

    Does the seller lose the 10% or is it PayPal or eBay that loses that 10%?

    I would imagine eBay, since I don't think they have any right to impose a mandatory and arbitrary discount obligation onto the seller.

    Ebay randomly offers the 10% deals to select members. Ebay absorbs the cost of the program.

    same here. Did not notice it on the first order of one roll that I placed, but did on the second roll. No prior emails or notices from eBay.

    Didn't someone hear say we were in a bear market rally for the short term?

    And, the dollar index is rising. Everything is back to "normal" until the next central bank surprise.

    Are they really this stupid, or are they destroying the dollar on purpose?

    It's a chance to buy some at a lower price, but it sure makes it hard to make any money on the stuff you already bought, esp. when you don't even have it yet. Had stuff here and a couple other places and not even a nibble. Except for some guy who wanted to lowball me at $375 a roll.

    Guess it depends on the motives, short term or otherwise. We watched Silver go from under $4 IIRC to a tad under $50. A dollar move is not much of a thrill.

    "….it sure makes it hard to make any money on the stuff you already bought, esp. when you don't even have it yet. "

    You probably would do better to buy this stuff with a longer time horizon in mind rather than thinking about making money on an instantaneous flip.

    I'm honestly not being mean but I am sooo glad that I did not get sucked into this and would've had to taken a 6% beatdown before even receiving them. Sooo glad.
    I haven't been buying much of anything lately. The 4-6% one day beatings have become too often for me to risk my hard earned money, and there aren't enough 4-6% upside days to offset the beatdowns. Lucky to get a 1.5% up day.

    I know someone will say that's the time to buy...they'd have a very hard time convincing me why I should. Cash is better right now.

    I wanted to lay in a few rolls of 2015s so that was a decent opportunity. Seeing as I don't have to sell, it's not a big deal to have to wait. Glad I didn't buy more.

    Even with today's big drop those that bought the deal are still in lower than anywhere I've seen them today by more than a little.

    One thing I'd like to lay to rest, I often see comments that somehow the "A"company or MCM would know in advance how markets will move and time their sales accordingly. My proof positive that this is false--- neither company would exist because being able to predict the future would create instant wealth of a virtually unlimited magnitude resulting in no reason to keep businesses operational that work on less than a 1% profit margin after all expenses....

    We all know that...that's why you see a winky face most of the time. It's just ironic, or coincidence that for the last year or so, whenever a decent bullion sale came along, inevitably the markets would fall shortly thereafter. I was hoping that yours would "break the jinx ... we shall see.

    Well I didn't do the roll of ASE's for $400, for the record I did purchase some silver (not ASE's) late last night on eBay using that eBay coupon that was graciously provided here. Thanks to all those that helped in saying that even if I didn't receive one, the coupon still worked, that was kind of sweet seeing it work because I didn't get one for any of my accounts. image

    Actually, selling at $18.50 was a very easy spot to sell. I do agree, and wrote so in a previous post, that there is very little profit incentive in selling and buying back on a dip, but that assumes one would be buying back.
