    Within a year these will be a loss seller on Ebay. Get what you can out of them now.

    I doubt it, although prices may retreat from today's highs. I plan to revisit this thread a year from now.

    225,000 sets is too many to hold a value, if it had been 75,000 or less it could have been a winner. Sell and make what you can.

    Right now the sellers control the price, but quickly that will change as more are sold into the market. Gold kennedy v 2.0

    Prices will be rising.

    This is all the weak hands happy with getting $50.

    These will be $75 - $100 all day soon.

    Or by the hundreds of thousands and we all got the last 25,000 or so. Mostly Jesse, though.

    They are not sold out they are still for sale at the ANA, do you think there will be any left to sell on the website when the ANA ends?

    Yeah, Coin World is reporting a 500 limit at the ANA, 20 at the mint stores.

    The Mint stores are sold out. The ANA probably will soon, too.

    Someone at ebay is selling 1000 sets for $54,999.99 lol
    There got to be a better way to ensure the general public has the chance to purchase a set without the hassle of skipping lunch or work.

    May be a limited pre-order of 1 per account and no limit on/after release date?

    Or a limit for the first day(s) then a higher limit for the first week then open it up to unlimited. If you can come up with a method to enforce limits and punish cheaters who have banks of order friends or employees post it here. Very difficult.

    A pre order of 1 could work. You'd hear a lot of crying from the flippers but it would enable collectors to get one for their collections.

    No wonder they sold out online....so many at the ANA that online didn't have a lot to sell.....

    I've been sick and didn't get up in time, so missed out when I wanted a couple. Oh well.....hoping they do drop next year. I just like getting original sets and not passed over sets though.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Not likely...unique set...low price with "limited numbers"= does not equal a loss to sellers.

    I'm assuming the rate they pay for bulk submissions is a lot lower than $35 per coin.

    Not sure if they sold out at the show or not? I will ask tomorrow when I go. I was amazed at the number of sets they sold at the show. I guessed around 25,000 and I was one of the first third of the line. We saw skids and skids of them.

    My bet is that there is going to be a lot of 70's come out in this. The mint is getting better in exponential leaps and bounds when it comes to keeping these coins pristine after striking them. One recent example were the gold centennial mercury dimes. I believe somewhere in the neighborhood of 80% submitted to PCGS got the top grade. It made it to the point that there was almost no premium for the 70's.

    A pre order of 1 could work. You'd hear a lot of crying from the flippers but it would enable collectors to get one for their collections.

    Never work. What happens when the pre-order number exceeds the number minted? (The 2015 Platinum Proof and the 2016 American Liberty medals comes to mind.) At that point, it isn't a presale. It's just moving the on-sale date up on the schedule, with no product to sell on the promised date.

    Face it. If the Mint puts out a desirable product, it's going to sell out in a very short amount of time. That's just the way it is now. It comes from being able to order from wherever you are via smartphone/tablets, and the fact the PFSWeb's ordering system has no problems doing thousands of transactions per minute. You had absolutely no complaints from anyone who ordered within the first 5 or 6 minutes.

    It is also the fault of Mint products becoming a staple of the flippers. And you cannot stop those willing to do a transaction with the mint for a sure couple of bucks from a dealer/TV huckster if they do put low HHL's on the product.

    And to be honest, if the Mint does put a low HHL on a higher mintage than needed, semi-desirable product, and opens it up later (like this year's plat proof and previous years C&C sets and the gold quarter and half), they never sell out, and can stay on the web site for months. That sucks as a business model. :)

    05203116 for 2 sets. Waited at home until 10AM (mountain) to order a couple sets, then jumped in the car and drove 10 hours to Denver. Be at the show in the morning. Now I just need a PCGS graded nickel for my nickel sets.
