I was being sarcastic. I don't care whether it is BIN or auction. Both prices count.
My dealer friend with his 15 boxes of sets ,, still holds out ..interesting, he knows 3 other dealers who still hold sets bought at show ,after they too, loaded up on sets
All, most, of the recent posts are about the price of sets and singles, graded or not,
I really like the look of this set and give kudos to the Mint for the great job they did producing these beauties. Yes, a few glitches, but over all my favorite Mint product, next to the Palladium, of the year. Something that gets second place to all the back and forth about sales on the secondary market.
The mint takes up to 16 weeks to process credits when they short ship or take return and still not given credit. Would not be surprised if final number does not go down more. I love the sets.
MY GOD, BESTIE!!! At the rate these sets are ACCELERATING IN VALUE, they'll be at $50 by Christmas!
[end sarcasm]
LOL.. no cherry picking jim ..... 225th prices from Dec 13 -14 ranged all the way down to $26....non PE
Worse ,,NGC 70 sets ranged from $92 -$108.. Better yet, use the 10% bonus bucks offer, to get a NGC 70s ,10 pc 225th set under 90 bucks .. a bargain ? Hurry ...LOL.....Why bother with raw sets
Just think how much NGC 70s sets have fallen off... coin club was offered 100 NGC sets at $250.00 back in August. The Big A suggestion was spot on..
back to the coins. I still pounding the table and dead horse on the quality of the zincoln. best zincoln money can buy and it is coming straight out of a mint set instead of endless searching followed by resignation to accepting some plating problems.

Hmmmm just got a note from eBay that BE cancelled my bid on some of their lot of 20 sets auctions, have they run out or are readying for a price jump?
It's also possible it was an error. I was a little concerned that they only showed 10 lots in the pictures but labeled it 20 lots. They pulled all of them.
They have no more auctions running and only one BIN lot of 20 for $706.
The BE liquidation is apparently over.
BE cancelled a 50 lot last week . also last week, another20 lot cancelled...... still more sets to go
I've never seen this much discussion about a set that has essentially done absolutely nothing since it was launched.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
I have not posted in a while. It looks like I haven’t missed a thing.
Count me in for about a four year supply at the rate we are selling. My one salvation... I was not in Denver. I suspect I would have had a 10 - 15 year supply had I been there.

Went to a small Midwestern show today. Saw a dealer with 3 sets in his case. Asked him about them. He said they’ve been sitting there since August. He’s had zero interest from buyers about them. Actually he was surprised I knew what they were.

Dealer friend actually sold 3 sets in last 2 weeks ..Christmas shoppers..
225th set should have included a Silver Eagle to hype interest

This is why I think you will see a second wave. You'd be surprised how many people, including series collectors, aren't even aware the sets exist. Sooner or later, they will want the Lincoln in their album.
Agree. Those who get their info from the annual Red Books or similar sources will see these listed in next year's edition and wonder how they missed knowing about it, then I think there will be a mild second wave of demand.

Once these sets are marked sold out they will start to climb.
Don't quote me on that.
no holiday rush on this one.

It's the second time they dropped the 20 lots.
It also means we are bidding against each other.

bottom line, just too many sets were made, too many people have large amounts of sets. this guy from Florida has enough sets to sell for the next 9 months alone, took him 36 hours to sell 16 sets at 32.75. he has thousands of sets left too

would of been a winner with a population of 25,000
there is no worse feeling in the world coming home from a 12 hour shift and having to stay up and ship these sets off at a loss
no it's not me. look at his other auctions, he has 4 rows of boxes of these stacked up to the ceiling
This thread just won't die, lol..

Cent
The 1909-S VDB was not selling for moon money in its year of issue either.
I doubt that the 2017-S will be dethroned before they quit making cents altogether.
been watching him sell for awhile now, he sells about 100 sets a month average between his complete sets and sets he breaks open
Lack of interest by younger generations is part of the equation.

when you live a cashless life style your whole life, you never get a chance to admire pocket change,
