What's up with Dansco? I read something about them moving their manufacturing elsewhere and maybe opening in the fall if at all. Every coin supply site is sold out of just about everything. What have you heard?

I’m a blank page buyer too— pages that used to sell for $9 are now over twice that..
Buy the album, not the coins? 🤫
Try reaching out to Randy at Chief Coin & Supply. They have new & used Dansco (and Witman & others) albums & pages available at very fair prices!! :

With the rise of slabs the demand for albums has probably dropped significantly. Expect some of the more obscure titles to be hard to find as they may not be reprinted when the original printing is sold out.
Somebody needs to step up and give them some competition. There is plenty of demand for dansco products seeing the way prices move when they stop producing.

I would love for these albums to be available again. I would buy at least a few albums.
I wish the albums were out already. Lots are waiting for them
I can’t think of a better way to store silver Eagles then in a Dansco album. It looks great and can get some really nice toning.
You might want to try desertdansco.com I have used them a few times in the past year and have been VERY happy with them. I just bought 8 blank small dollar pages and a blank binder to make my own American Innovation album. They show they have half dollar pages $6.50 each plus shipping.
It looks and feels great. The heft of an album full of ASEs is quite satisfying.

Thanks WALLE, just found the quarters album I was looking for. Great advice.
Don't overpay for albums. There are likely to be hoards out there. If production resumes on a given title any premiums paid will disappear overnight. Try local coin shops for Dansco titles. Many shops carried the brand and may still have supplies in the backroom. Don't be afraid to ask.
It is still possible to buy many of the Whitman Bookshelf albums in their original wrapper today. They were last produced in 1978! (Many used ones are available as well.)
Like @291fifth says, there were several albums I wanted, 7070 With Gold page, Liberty Seated Quarters, etc. Hard to find, sold out everywhere for a looooong time (at the time) used for crazy prices. I just set up eBay watch lists for them and snagged both after about 6 months for around $30 each which is crazy cheap even based on eBay past sales. You can find them if you're patient.
