    ??


    Mint Price is $1610 right now + $4.95 s&h. That one was listed at $1599 & $15 s&h. They were about evenly priced.


    Maybe buyers are wising up to where to order mint products?? >>




    How do I figure?

    The link you provided was for a Buff. Those are $1610.

    Well, I pulled the trigger on a 1 ouncer...

    I'm still thinking about the set, but that's a budget buster, and the CC would flame me for sure. FOr sure. It would, Well, it might not... aw shucks, I got a hose!

    Order #***3-6785 - backordered.

    Still considerng the set, though...

    Maybe I could get an advance on my inheritance? Yah, right...

    the Wed PM fix is done in London and on London time. am fix is approx. 10:30 and the pm fix is approx. 3pm done over the phone(!?!?)




    Crit #3, as do all the criteria, looks at both the weekly average and the wed. pm fix as compared to the already established selling range.


    this week the new weekly average was higher than the current range, but the wed pm fix was still inside the current range. that fits criteria #3, and the result from that criteria is no change.

    from 13,980 to 19,195 in a week!


    unbelievably hot

    13,980 1st week
    5,215 2nd week

    only 5,805 left.


    with gold tanking hard, my thinking is these will creep and crawl towards a sellout from here the way the Boy Scouts Commem did.

    On the other hand, I didn't think these would be nearly as hot as they are. So, maybe I'm wrong.

    That closing price is just over cost of eBay and PayPal fees.


    This is a pre-sale (pre- as in selling before the grades come back) though.


    And I'm guessing supply is outstripping demand right now.

    The Dems have NOT raised taxes. As a matter of fact, the Obama tax cut was the largest one year tax cut EVER.

    As for the Bush tax cuts that are going to expire. The Dems have NOTHING to do with that. As a matter of fact the Dems didn't even vote for it. So if your upset the Bush tax cuts are going away, blame the Republicans.


    Having said all that, what do we do next?

    I say let them all expire.

    If you don't want to do that and want to borrow more from China, then we need to decide who should get it and where it will have the greatest effect.

    If I remember correctly, the Bush Tax Cuts fixed the "marraige penalty", where most married couples were paying more in Federal Taxes than two "Single" taxpayers.

    Uh, well it's the law. Signed by Bush.

    There is absolutely nothing anyone can do about the Bush tax cuts, it is the Law, they will expire, end of story.
    If Bush wanted the Bush tax cuts to go on forever, they should have written the Law that way. They didn't, thus per the Law they wrote, the tax cuts will expire.


    If anything new is to be done, including 'extending' the Bush tax cuts, A NEW LAW HAS TO BE WRITTEN, passed by Congress, passed by the Senate and signed by the President.

    So, if we are writting a NEW tax Law, and borrowing the money from China, lets make sure we spend it in the best way to get our best bang for a buck.

    Oops... gone political instead of underlying factors influencing the dollar, influencing gold

    The economy and government function is more complex than simply lower or raising taxes.

    e.g. deficit spending.


    We can argue about taxes, but as long as spending is overlooked, bye bye dollar.

    But, if one works and the other doesn't, the one that works will pay LESS in taxes then the single person making the same amount. That ain't fair.

    Politics aside, if only the House flips....and the Senate doesn't, we'll have gridlock, plenty of posturing and nothing getting done.

    I don't think this country can afford 2 years of gridlock.

    That taken with the newly affluent of India and China mixed into the equation, and I'm not seeing gold plunging anytime soon.

    Sure, if you ignore the welfare that the "non-working" single collects. And the free child care and free healthcare. There's no better gig in town than two singles, where one works and one collects.

    Well all I know is as a single, no kids, make under 100K, I'm foot'n most of the bill.

    It just boggles my mind that someone with two kids making the same exact amount as me, paid $20,000 less in taxes over the past 10 years.

    $20,000 !!!!


    Needless to say, I say roll back ALL those tax cuts, which is to say, let everything expire and don't make any new ones.

    The marraige penalty is a mistake baked into the tax tables......nothing else.

    Why would two married individuals making the exact same amount as two single filers pay more Federal taxes?

    A mistake that needed to be fixed, nothing else. And it got fixed along with the Bush tax cuts. Period. It needs to stay that way.

    and the four coin set is still the second hottest seller, but of the four coins the 1/10 ounce is still the second hottest.

    We'll see how long it takes to sell out, if they sell out. They could keep the 1 oz on the list into next year and have a good chance of selling them out.

    My first Gold Eagle arrived today. image

    I was so excited, I opened up the box - it looks beautiful, and there appears to be not a mark or blemish on it - after which I felt totally overcome by the nefarious "Mr. Bill's" so very well known expression, 'Ohhh Nooooooooo'...

    But then I realized I'm well within the 30-day window, so now I must consider whether or not I actually want to go the grading & 1st strike route. Now, I understand the IN-significance, and am aware of the 1st strike rationale, but really, if that elusive 70 can bump a coin's value by, say, 20% today, is it reasonable to presume that premium will endure (I haven't been in the hobby long enough to know this personally) ?

    I ask, in part, since it seems that 1st strike designation often commands a premium in the early days, but I have to wonder if it will have legs?

    Do 1st strike coins retain the premium so often enjoyed at the start of the run?

    Sorry I missed that.


    This week:
    The average with 8/10 fixes done is $1392.19. The last fix today was $1421.


    They jump the price to the range indicated by the average. So, that's 1 level up right now, barring some sharp decline in gold. If the fixes tomorrow are both $1431.25 or both add to $2862.50, then we will jump by 2 levels
