SOLD OUT! Anyone wish to cry along with me? :(

Insider2Insider2 Posts: 14,452 ✭✭✭✭✭

Well, congratulations to all those who were able to buy one of the 15K Palladium coins today! I lost out. :'(

Cannot wait to see what they reach on the secondary market as big dealers are paying $300 to $400 over issue price already.

Thanks <3 to the member who alerted me to try and get one. I hope you were successful! :)

    I'm glad the collecting community is that strong! It's good to know there are 15,000 collecting households for these :)

    LOL. Good for you. Nevertheless, this discussion is for those who lost out NOT the winners.

    I hope "mine" went to a collector as I >:) planned to sell it as soon as I got it.

    I'm expecting increased interest, so hold on to your sales receipt it could get crazy; blue sky breakout ahead. I was recommending stock AMD a month ago at $19, but no one listens....

    I didn't want it; I didn't buy it.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    I didn't want it either BUT A $300 to $400 IMMEDIATE (approx. 25%) PROFIT was powerful incentive for my to "play." What can I say? I have the greedy gene. B)

    Not long ago I was in the scrum for these hot issues, but I have taken a step back from the US Mint. . I am not boycotting by any means, but I am starting to become indifferent to the next latest hottest thing.

    I guess I need to start paying attention again....

    Of course, it would help if I knew what the heck Palladium is. I assume it is silver colored, but does it tarnish, develop spots, etc.?

    I didn't want it either.... but my click addiction got the best of me this morning. I got my order in at 12:02:15. From what I'm reading, sellout was in about 7 minutes. My motivation wasn't the flip at all but I'm happy a flip could take place for me. I'll probably keep this Coin forever. At the heart of it all, I'm a Collector.

    I got 2 emails, one last night and one this morning from Provident offering $100 over cost to commit to send it to them in unopened original packaging. You order your 1, get your confirmation number and send it to them and they send you a prepaid shipping label that you put on the unopened box and when they get it they send you a check for cost plus $100. I guess they are planning to sell them for a lot more. I'm not interested and not that bad in need to tie up my money waiting for delivery and then shipping time to them and wait for the check to come back.

    Last years bullion version is still way above issue price and you couldn't get one for even the proof version price. What makes you think this one will be different?

    Maybe a bit longer than 30 days, but once the aftermarket feeding frenzy dies cooler heads will prevail. After all we are in a declining precious metals market. . . never a good time to become overstocked in flippables.

    Low ball offer. However, if you know of a better way to tie your money up to make 25% profit (locked in/sure thing) in less than a month ...

    History. There's can't be more than a handle of mint products over the last 10 years that sell for more than their issue price (raw). This one may be different, but the same cycle happens very time. Once prices start dropping in a few weeks it's game over for flippers.

    I can already hear that blowhard coin guy with his ANACS PF70's puffing these coins. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME EVER THE US MINT HAS PRODUCED... YOU CAN'T GET THIS ANYWHERE! THEY SOLD OUT IN SECONDS! Any guesses on his asking price?

    I received an e-mail from Pinehurst Coins offering $225 plus the cost of the coin. This is getting interesting.

    Only this time you couldn't get overstocked with this offering due to the household limit.

    I put out a offer for $300 over man I'm way to high now. I guess I'll just pay the one's that got in and kept there promise the $300 over.

  • logger7logger7 Posts: 8,782 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I bought it thinking the $100 Provident was promising was worth the risk, with all the ebay purchased I have lost money on, at least there is profit on a credit card transaction and 1.5% cash back.

    15,000 collectors? No. 5,000 collectors and 10,000 speculators? Probably.

    Probably more like 1000 collectors and 14,000 flippers. Better make your money fast on this one.

    15,000 examples of a useless metal, all in perfect condition. How does this differ from 15,000 beanie babies made of scrap cloth, all in perfect condition?

    Such a great waste of resources that might otherwise be put into really nice, interesting US coins and medals, all accompanies by centuries of history. :(
