You can buy them from the mint? Are dealers trying to buy more?

Of course there are idiots, but if you want more than 10 or 20, with a close friend or family, it's kind of tough.

I've heard about some creative ways to get around that order limit. It explains how the gold 20th anniversary sets ended up in fewer hands than than some people think.

I know of one dealer who bought from the US Mint , over 40 sets of the 2006 AGEs..
Funny , the Mint had a limit of 2 Gold Buffalo Proofs per order with a 300,000 mintage ,,,,,, yet the Mint had a 10 set buy limit on a 10,000 mintage of 2006 AGEs. .Looks like the lights have been out for a long time at the MInt
that'd be my guess

The other reason is some people have more money than brains.
<< <i>People buying now can make the First Strike submission deadline of 11/11, even with opened sets. People ordering now, certainly will not, and may not receive sets at all.

First Strike ended 10/24 for all coins except the Reverse Proof. Read the sticky at the top of the page.

Good point. First Strike seems to have really distorted the coin market, even for things that aren't graded yet.

I bought mine from the mint the day after they went on sale and haven't received them yet.
<< <i>Current Sales Figures as of Nov. 3........20th Anniversary ASE 3 Piece Sets - 214,235 >>
How does one get those sacred numbers?????
2. Because there are so many 68 grades, folks are paying
400+ for PCGS graded sets with all 69 grades First Strikes
In addition a number of sets are found with milk spots on the coins.
3. the PCGS graded PR-70DCAM is going for 1000+ by itself
4. The PCGS graded Reverse Proof-70 is going for 3000 and up,
because at the moment, they are few and far between.
As more coins are graded, we will have a better idea which coins
of the set are the rarest. The majority of ASE 20th ANN Sets will
be delivered too late to make First Strikes. This will also impact
values.

There is zero evidence to support this claim. The mint reports sales figures weekly to the numismatic rags and as of Nov 3 there are close to 40K of these sets available. There is no evidence that the mint has ever provided false reports. I am tired of people making this claim in an effort to hype sales.
