These are selling pretty well. If you want one you better get one now. They have sold over 6000 since this time yesterday. ATS down to 6180. I see them selling out in the next couple of days.

Looks like 4887 tonight so you're correct. A day later seeing ATS at 4887. Thanks for the heads up.

"ats": 12766, this morning. This product is currently on back order and is estimated to ship on Fri Aug 21 2026.
@jmlanzaf did you cancel your order or something? LOL!
Lol. No. Not yet.
I just got 8 from the MINT. They sold at 179 in a couple days.
They were slower moving than before, but the price seems stable at the moment.
I've been debating cancelation all week. The fact that 12,000 are available again makes me think i may cancel half of them. Idk. I still have 220ish on order. I have 10 presold to a dealer. Do I want/need 210 in inventory with classes starting imminently?
Or since I'm still making $30 or so per set, should I buy a couple hundred more? Lol

Oh no! I don't think you want 1 couple hundred more, although we should be approaching the end of what the Mint will have to offer.
With classes starting imminently, and sales steady but slower, you might have time to handle all your shipping needs and still teach. What subject do you teach these young folks?

Chemistry.
I don't want to have time. LOL. That means my inventory isn't moving.
It's a math problem with a crystal ball. If the price holds, which it rarely does forever, I'm spending $27k to make $6k. That's a nice return even if it takes me roughly 20 hours to pack and ship.
But if the price drops $20, then I'm spending $27k to make $2k and that's still good for 20 hours week.
But if the price drops $30 or more, then I'm breaking even our losing money even after I spend the 20 hours.
And a $30 price drop is still $149 per set. Could they reasonably drop to $125 by Christmas?
I really need to get my crystal ball fixed.

Ah, not one of my life’s highlights. Always struggled with the sciences. I was always more of a math-guy.
Your investment numbers work out, but I don’t think dropping over 12,000 more sets into the market at this stage is good for secondary price stability. They’ve only moved 600 sets this morning and have 12186 left. Granted, people don’t yet know they're available yet again. ,

Could be just that nobody expected this to come back at this level. It's a pretty quiet period with the Mint, so perhaps people aren't checking the site as aggressively as before. Next "big thing" is the next quarter and the BOM4 to bring major traffic back to the site. Zero issues with getting on this week. I did place an order, and noticed a new "verify you're human" box to click on, so I think they've been actively working to address the bot concern before the next big drops.

On another note, the clad proof set has been returning ATB all week long. They seem to come and go in spurts, but it’s daily.

I've been debating cancelation all week. The fact that 12,000 are available again makes me think i may cancel half of them. Idk. I still have 220ish on order. I have 10 presold to a dealer. Do I want/need 210 in inventory with classes starting imminently?
Or since I'm still making $30 or so per set, should I buy a couple hundred more? Lol
Oh no! I don't think you want 1 couple hundred more, although we should be approaching the end of what the Mint will have to offer.
With classes starting imminently, and sales steady but slower, you might have time to handle all your shipping needs and still teach. What subject do you teach these young folks?
Chemistry.
I don't want to have time. LOL. That means my inventory isn't moving.
It's a math problem with a crystal ball. If the price holds, which it rarely does forever, I'm spending $27k to make $6k. That's a nice return even if it takes me roughly 20 hours to pack and ship.
But if the price drops $20, then I'm spending $27k to make $2k and that's still good for 20 hours week.
But if the price drops $30 or more, then I'm breaking even our losing money even after I spend the 20 hours.
And a $30 price drop is still $149 per set. Could they reasonably drop to $125 by Christmas?
I really need to get my crystal ball fixed.
Ah, not one of my life’s highlights. Always struggled with the sciences. I was always more of a math-guy.
Your investment numbers work out, but I don’t think dropping over 12,000 more sets into the market at this stage is good for secondary price stability. They’ve only moved 600 sets this morning and have 12186 left. Granted, people don’t yet know they're available yet again. ,
Yes. I noticed the sluggish pace of sales. Lol.
Could be just that nobody expected this to come back at this level. It's a pretty quiet period with the Mint, so perhaps people aren't checking the site as aggressively as before. Next "big thing" is the next quarter and the BOM4 to bring major traffic back to the site. Zero issues with getting on this week. I did place an order, and noticed a new "verify you're human" box to click on, so I think they've been actively working to address the bot concern before the next big drops.
I don't know. I just got notification that they shipped 16 more sets to me. So maybe I can sell those before the market craters. Lol. But not if the Mint can't sell the last 11,000 sets soon.
Yes, it’s creeping along and the word is out.
On another note, the clad proof set has been returning ATB all week long. They seem to come and go in spurts, but it’s daily.

Should be gone by Monday then, as you calculated. Unless, of course, you get the itch to buy some more????
I looked at the sales reports. Looks like there were 14,000 returns of cancellations been July 20 and July 26.
So you think they need until August 21 (the backorder date) to repackage those that had been opened?
No. Not necessarily. They may well have been cancelations. I forget when those 30,000 were sold. They could be cancelations. They might also be minting replacements for returns. Really impossible to say. But I think that's where the 13,000 came from today. They were showing 294k+ sales before that. It dropped to 280k on the 26th and then crept back up to 287k on August 10th.
I wish they'd sell out again. Lol.

Comments
I saw they had 1,195 this morning
By the time I grabbed my 2, it had dropped to 20. Took 3 minutes for them to sell out.
had 35 in cart since last week. Finally got it completed this morning
And was able to set 12 more in cart.
I think the CENT is going to be the winner. I wont break out or submit them, I'm an uncirculated mint and proof set collector. OGP!
You'll probably get them tomorrow. Good luck!
current prices won't last. sell what you're going to sell now
Huge number available today. Over 13,000. August 21st backorder.

I must be crazy. I bought like 200 of them since I couldn't get a liberty bell.
Lol

ATS was 15,222 this morning (at 7:30)
There must have been a fair number of returns. The number sold was 294,000 in this week's report.

Thanks for the update, picked up a few more
Going slow. Still 12647 left. Someone buy them do i don't. PLEASE
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
hmmm, 80 of these or a 1/2 oz Gold Liberty Bell...
I think much easier to sell 80 of these.
On the other hand, much easier to keep one 1/2 oz liberty bell.
I bought 220 of these, so I voted. I'm trying really hard not to buy 440.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
These are selling pretty well. If you want one you better get one now. They have sold over 6000 since this time yesterday. ATS down to 6180. I see them selling out in the next couple of days.
Looks like 4887 tonight so you're correct. A day later seeing ATS at 4887. Thanks for the heads up.
Down to 3600 this morning. A steady pace towards zero.
All gone. Hopefully everyone got as many as they wanted.
Lol. I probably got more than i should have. It will be interesting to watch the price over the next month

my cc charge disappeared but order still on backorder - will they charge when shipped?
It took long enough, and there was no mad rush at the end..
That is my understanding. I currently have the charge. If you don’t mind sharing, how long did it take for yours to disappear?
ordered on July 1 - when I checked July 10 it was gone, but did not check between
Thanks for the info. I've never done this before and was wondering what to expect. I appreciate you taking the time to reply.
depends upon your cc company
My sets finally show shipped today.
How has the quality been overall? I didn't read all 9 pages of this thread.

Yes I’ve got shipping confirmation tonight for sets on back order, so they’re starting to ship again.
I got two sets (separate orders).
One was OK but on the other one, one of the coins had some some spots and tarnish. Guess which coin. The P mint cent. 😡
I sent it back.
"ats": 12766, this morning. This product is currently on back order and is estimated to ship on Fri Aug 21 2026.
