<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1286350, member: 13650"]I think part of it is everybody just wants to join the fray on Thursday to be part of it for entertainment. For your time, you'll be rewarded with a nice limited set, straight from the mint that has the possibility of appreciating significantly over the years. And it is the 25th anniversary. An interesting mile stone. For others, they'll need it for their registry sets. Others just want as many as they can get to break up and grade. While many others get sent in in the original boxes to be graded. </p><p><br /></p><p> To look at it another way, if 10k dealers/people on Earth plan on ordering 5 sets, that leaves 50k for the rest of us. If 20k people/dealers, businesses on Earth think they're going to order just 5 sets, there will be a lot of people out of luck. As someone else stated, there are many dealers who are vying to get many more than 5 sets themselves. </p><p> Then we know we'll have to compete with the mail order companies. Well, you don't have to but if you want a set at what will probably be the cheapest they'll be available.</p><p><br /></p><p> By the way, when the Iphone 4S came out, some people paid over $1500+ to get a 32 GB. You can get the same phone on Verizon for $200 with a plan. If somebody's willing to pay, there's going to be people willing to sell. I would imagine a lot of collectors will be at work when they go on sale. Many are probably willing to risk the current premiums now than after their sold out and you're completely at the secondary market's mercy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
