    In 6 months....that was going to look like a give away. (As always, we will have to see).

    I would have been happy at: $255.00, as always.........just my opinion.

    Sometimes we just have to see how these things pan out.

    But to answer the thread: Insanity? No, I don't think so. :3dancingsmiley

    He's selling something he hasn't got back yet. What does that tell you?

    Tells me he jumped the gun and pissed off allot of people, who paid big buck to fast track their submissions. (Me included). Do I think he made one (some, those listed).......????? Ya, I probally do.

    I guess the proof will be in the pudding on next Moday's Pop Report, which I for one will be really interested in seeing. If I had to speculate, I would say pre-sale not completly holding the bag. But I beleive he know's whats in the bag.

    I wouldn't have done it but then again, I wouldn't buy 1000's of mint sets either. But if you are going to find them, that would probally be a successful way to do so. He still commanded market for the coin on this date. He got its worth, and I beleive the buyer got his value. I would take it off his hands for 255.00 price paid.

    Again, just my thoughts.................image

    I think buying several mint sets with the $225 would be a wiser idea. With the stunning quality of many of these sets you may pull down more than one MS69 of your own.

    This bidder will always have that nice warm fuzzy satisfaction of being the first person to severely overpay for a 2005 Bufferson though, so he's got that going for him. Just my opinion, but from the sets I've received MS69's are going to be ridiculously cheap by Winter.
    Varieties are the spice of a Type Set.

    Need more $$$ for coins?

    All I can say is that I've seen even worse with state quarters.

    That would buy you 14 Mint sets and based on what I have been seeing, that does not = more than >1 in MS69. And of the Nickels, the Bison-P is by far the one that will probally produce the most high grades.
    This has just been my observation.

    I don't think so, but again we'll have to see how this plays out. MS69 are tougher then what people are professing to beleive they can make, right now. They are possible with some of this years coins but there is going to be some really tough ones to make, and those if made are going to be few and far between.

    I guess winter will tell all.

    I'd give you the world, just because...

    Speak to me of loved ones, favorite places and things, loves lost and gained, tears shed for joy and sorrow, of when I see the sparkle in your eye ...
    and the blackness when the dream dies, of lovers, fools, adventurers and kings while I sip my wine and contemplate the Chi.

    OMG! image

    You'd think a mint set would have been cheaper.

    Let's see......$16.95 + 4.95 + 14.00......image not too mention 7 weeks wait ......

    Yep, it woulda been cheaper!

    Insanity? Sure it is. My relatives tell me I'm insane for paying more than face value all of the time. If someone is willing to pay that much, then that's what it's worth (to them at least). Why does everyone around here worry about what others spend? It's their money. If they are getting ripped, it's their own fault (as long as the auction is legit). jmho

    The first guy at $15.51 for a bid was nuts so far as I'm concerned. From than on it ranged from lunatic to stark raving certifiable.

    It’s just nickel folks, and brand new one at that.
