Vaultbox 9. What did you get inside?

ScarsdaleCoin · February 7, 2025 3:37PM

Show us what you got if you opened it???? Anyone get a pan pac?

Here are two that a fellow dealer just opened

cheezhed · February 7, 2025 4:01PM

I bought a Vault Box once. Once.

JBK · February 7, 2025 4:12PM

Is this Vault Box still a thing?

How do others feel about it?

They all love it. Especially on the east coast.

I detected some sarcasm in @JBK's post. It's already been discussed to death. He can tell me if I'm wrong.

Then you might also note the sarcasm in my post, or perhaps you forget who the east coast loud mouth was on those prior threads

I didn't read 95% of them.

What’s vaultbox?

johnny9434 · February 7, 2025 5:09PM

It's something that should have been left alone. Seems it opens up a can of worms more then anything 🤢

oih82w8 · February 7, 2025 5:22PM

Curious...how much do these cost? I just done some reading on their website and it does not disclose the cost.

Series 9 was $995 with a limit of 3 per household. SOLD OUT.

Kinda like playing the lottery.

I’ve heard many of the boxes are filled with disappointment, but I do not have first hand experience.

lermish · February 7, 2025 6:07PM

@oih82w8 It's not kind of like playing the lottery, it's exactly like playing the lottery.

And yes, @P0CKETCHANGE , may of the boxes were filled with disappointment...

But then again some were not....

oih82w8 · February 7, 2025 6:12PM

@lermish at least with this Vaultbox thing you get a coin that's worth something. That is not always the case with a lottery...sometimes you don't win a thing other than a bookmark of your failed attempt. :'(

Hey West Coast loudmouth! 🤪

Please explain why VaultBox is not allowed to be discussed but Witterbrick was deemed valid by you and NJCoin...so much so that you two agreed to settle your feud and became allies?🤔

Nope. The Internet is where sarcasm went to die.

87redcivic · February 7, 2025 7:33PM

I'd never buy a VaultBox product, but I like watching openings on YouTube. I find them entertaining.

Does anyone else do this?

Desert Moon · February 7, 2025 7:33PM

I don’t gamble, ‘specially the unregulated type. So I got nothin’.

I was never opposed to VB. I was arguably its most vocal defender

I'm also on the East Coast btw

Interesting how you feel you were the MOST vocal defender...🙄

Doesn't surprise me....

Jeff Garrett posted on the NGC website.

"The VaultBoxes, which are graded by NGC, have become quite popular and are now in their 9th edition. The latest one is touting the "$100,000 Hit," the chance to pull a 1915-S Panama-Pacific $50 gold coin graded NGC MS 64."

They do, green and gold.

EDIT: @jmlanzaf I successfully stickered a pattern I won last year.

That's interesting. I wonder if they sent all eligible coins to CAC or just a select few. Or maybe they crossed coins that were already CAC when acquired????

My guess was that they purchased NGC holdered stickered coins and got them re-stickered once in the VB holders. Even if they get a discounted bulk rate, I don't think it makes sense for the organizers to send in 1000 coins worth $250-500 for stickering.

Yes we have some. I haven’t opened them yet. Usually we sell but my staff does want me to open If I do I’ll make a video and show and tell.

Well hopefully this thread will last. When VB1, and the next couple versions were released, I tried to have a discussion about them several times but there were many members who hijacked the thread to debate the merits of gambling vs. collecting and the threads were either closed or extinguished.🙄

Good luck!😎

Do not be disappointed on resale, owner.

VaultBox offers a guaranteed buy back price which is usually very close to greysheet pricing
so you don't get stuck with a coin.

Yup, that's it.

Those coins will be booted around more than the football in tomorrow's game.

Wasn't there complaining amongst dealers that overgraded coins were deflating pricing and ruining value stability long term?

One thing you can be sure of is that coin dealers will always be complaining about something.

That's a pretty extreme downgrade prediction even considering they were graded by NGC.

fathom · February 8, 2025 2:55PM

The motivations and incentives to assemble a game, with all of the promotional and marketing costs involved, will long term negatively affect the valuation, pricing integrity and interest level of rare coins.

Not a fan.

And yet VB has sold out 9 times in a row....🤑🤑🤑🤑

MsMorrisine · February 8, 2025 3:02PM

too many coins extant and too few VB players to affect coin market. i just see some potential collectors being burned out of the hobby
