    This is just not that hot an issue

    Hard to say when there are 100K and you can only buy 1. Let them sit unsold if/when the HLL is lifted, and then pronounce it "just not that hot an issue."

    Not at all hard to tell. Issues of 100k or even more used to sell out installing even with HHL of 1. This puppy has taken days to sell out.

    Only because bots were able to slam the website in the past. This "puppy" has now been on sale for 3.5 hours on the day of release, a few minutes the day after, and now 9 hours today, with a HHL of 1, no bots, lots of would-be buyers locked out, and apparently, in a rare shout-out to @coiner, tens of thousand of canceled orders due to people gaming system and being ferreted out. Not because they are "just not that hot an issue." Again, let them remove the HHL, and then tell me how "just not hot" it is. Today. Not in 2 years.

    Hardly "days." If there are any left at noon tomorrow, and if they lift the HHL, they will be gone in a nano-second, which will effectively constitute a one-day sellout.

    There are no bids at 2x issue price on anything that is actually available at issue price while taking "days to sell out." You know better, so why are you arguing for the sake of arguing?

    i think the mint can be very happy with these results.

    these are getting bought by flippers too, but if the secondary market holds up, i think they can do 100k on the other two

    No need to keep posting the ats number at this point.

    We get it. They are trickling down to zero availability.

    At some point the total availability will be zero and the Add to Cart tab will turn to Remind Me

    When it takes 9 hours, it's not that hot. Period. The waiting room slows things down but not that much. There used to be 500k people online at the time of release and they would sell out in under an hour. Now, multiple hours even with a 100% premium on the bid.

    It's not that hot. That's no crime. And it will sell out. But it doesn't bode well for long term pricing.

    With the slow(er) demand, I'm now wondering what the re-sellers are going to do with their flippers that made purchases for a guaranteed price. Flippers were offered a certain price (ex. $125-185) per coin.

    Now, with less(er) demand, I wonder if the re-sellers/buyers will now look at this less demand signal as an opportunity to tell the flippers to cancel their orders so they don't lose money.

    A bit of a dilemma for the re-sellers - do they burn bridges with their flippers as a business decision - or do they hold the line - pay what they promised - and hope they get the re-sale prices they were originally anticipating?

    A business decision for sure!

    It will be interesting to watch over the next few days/week where this situation turns.

    The only flippers guaranteed over $200 per coin so far are those who have already sold on eBay (for high fees).

    I don’t think HHL of 1 works. Too many cancelations in the days and weeks after from people ordering multiples messing up demand. I don’t resell but i like what I buy to at least have some value, or be a bit of a challenge to obtain. I cancelled my order yesterday, i think this will only get worse after today with additional inventory.

    Nope. Where do you think all of these coins are coming from? The Mint has literally canceled tens of thousands of orders from people playing the system. The resellers still need the coins, because many of the coins they thought would be coming to them won't be. This is likely why we haven't seen these on TV yet.

    No one is burning any bridges. Yet. If resellers were able to buy in quantity from the Mint at $105, that would be a different story. But that has not happened yet. Let's see what happens at noon today, if any are left for any extended period of time.

    TBD. We've never seen a case before where the Mint aggressively canceled orders of people violating the HHL en masse. That has apparently resulted in as many as 30-40K coming back to the website in the last two days.

    In the past, they were sold and remained sold, which accounted for quick sell outs. If they lift the HHL and the coins don't disappear in minutes, you are right. Otherwise, it's just a timing issue due to the Mint not allowing flippers to keep their booty this time around while the HHL is in place, and the coins are as hot as any other with a 100K mintage.

    I do not think so! There are only "14693" coins left as of this post. I expect it to be sold out in the next few hours.

    Well think again!

    The USM should just do a subscription for 1-3 coins per account. Anything remaining goes on day one of the sale for any qty.
    The ever changing rules of the road are just chaotic.

    The ever changing rules just reflect ever changing facts on the ground. I'm giving you a shout out, because you were absolutely right about the number of coins being grabbed by the buying groups. Far higher than anyone ever realized.

    So give the Mint credit for aggressively stopping it. In a very unconventional way for them, taking weeks to cancel the orders, and then widely announcing an on-sale date and time for the canceled coins. Not changing the HHL until everyone had a chance.

    They are not set up to do subscriptions for one-offs. No reason for that to change. Getting the word out that buyer's clubs violating limits, to the detriment of the Big Boys as well as the rest of us, won't be tolerated might actually serve to get things under control in the future. We'll see.

    But I'm pretty sure that right now there is chaos in that world, as tens of thousands of coins that were bought and sold, possibly multiple times, won't be coming to the final buyer. Probably why these things have not yet made an appearance on TV weeks after release.

    In the meantime, can't really blame them for initially setting very low HHLs. Or for giving everyone a shot at the same time for one-off hot issues, rather than having the vast majority scooped up ahead of time by Big Boys and subscribers.

    ...a bit of a "business decision" too for the Mint (if they are watching or care).

    • If they lift the HHL or increase it to 3 - this coin will sell out in hours and stay sold out and thus, will create the illusion of demand that I believe they would like to maintain.

    • if they keep the HHL at 1 - this coin may not sell out - driving down any secondary market (and interest).

    Only time will tell what the Mint does with the HHL on this - which will signal how much they care or don't about this issue selling out.

    I'm pretty sure this is just indicative of the fact that they knew they were going to aggressively go after the gamers this time around. So they didn't ship until they cleaned up the order book.

    This massive coin drop yesterday and this morning tells us the clean up is now complete. They probably had the coins all along, and just didn't know how long it was going to take them to do what they did yesterday.

    If not, it's quite a coincidence that it took them 3 weeks to purge the orders and re-release the coins to the market, and are then going to start shipping right after the holiday weekend, 3 entire weeks ahead of schedule. July 29th was likely nothing more than a placeholder all along. Interesting.

    I wonder if this is going to be the new MO for all hot releases going forward? Maybe not taking orders on a pre-order basis, but in not shipping until all orders are scrutinized for compliance with HHLs. TBD. It would be a really good thing, if true.

    Understood. When did they push out the last 7K+ coins?

    Also sometime overnight. That likely indicates they are done with the order purge, and are ready to ship. 7/7 is the next business day after today. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I don't believe in coincidences.

  • RichRRichR Posts: 3,925 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Naysayers aside...I have no problem with the Mint eliminating the initial "bum rush" chaos...more coins spread around to more actual individual purchasers this way.

    That extra 7k+ may not have been a purge. Just people not sure about this release cancelling their order yesterday. Seemingly a mint to demand at this point which is no fun.

    As far as the somewhat "slow" sales of the remaining inventory, it's also a big holiday week and the date of the new availability wasn't known in advance.

    Maybe. But I think it's more likely that "fast" sales are always mostly attributable to flippers, and they have seemingly been shut down on this one. Don't judge until the HHL is lifted. If that happens today, and they don't sell out instantly, then tell me about the "big holiday week."

    I would doubt there are many cancellations, but perhaps some expired credit cards here and there.... Not 8000 of them.. As soon as they raise the household limit, they will sell out..

    90k coins were loaded for sale on June 13. They sold out. Yesterday 37k were loaded for sale. That's tens of thousands of cancelations.
    Not surprising that 7k of yesterday's orders were also cancelled and added back to the pool this morning - lots of resellers reattempted orders yesterday or used new addresses to get around the HHL. Appears many weren't successful.
