  As a seller of a few items, I have set BIN at a fair price, then only to have to the final bid blow the original BIN price away.
  
  
  thats nice if your selling, but sucks if your buying?

  I've sold a few coins that went for more than the BIN. In all honesty, i've never had the patience to wait to get a better deal if I really like the coin. I jump on the BIN. Oh well, you'll be enjoying the coins long after you've paid the extra hundred.

  I didnt buy them.
  
  The set is about 200. In 66 its 1500
  
  I thought even one upgrade out of three would be 500, but in the end I decided it wasnt for me....I dont like BTWs

  That was bought by a dealer in my state. He is pretty sharp so he must have saw something here either for retail or wholesale.

  All three of those coins were in the old original rattle holders. Obviously some bidders believed they would upgrade.

  The cheeks are relatively clean, but I think the only one that has a shot is the D mint-which could make it worthwhile---------BigE
