Just got this. I was expecting price increases at some point.
New prices take effect Aug 1 but unclear if it's for submissions received (or entered into system?) Aug 1.
Looks like mostly just a $2 increase for economy and regular tiers.
What is disappointing and what I would have preferred is if they adjusted the tiers to account for inflation, or at least create a new tier so modern gold 1oz coins don't all have to be at the $70 express level. Oh well.

    I wonder if it will affect the price for the collectors club.
    Ive got 8 vouchers I need to use so I wont get hit with the price increase right away.
    I don't really know their price structure anyway.

    They also removed special issues entirely. No more special issues economy. Effectively a price hike there but more consistent to perhaps a wash.

    Inflation is alive and well.

    No worries.

    With oil and gas going down I'm sure all kinds of companies will be turning around and reducing their prices soon. :D

    I thought it would be worse to be honest.

    For some it feels satisfying and feels good to be pumping gas knowing they can easily afford to do so, really- no matter what the prices are- and see the guy in the landscaping truck next to them sweating as he figures out how he is going to pay for it all.

    I think it’s better to be honest. 😏 As the saying goes, “Honesty is the best policy”.
