Message:: [QUOTE="Juan Blanco, post: 1646715, member: 41665"]See eBay (fair market-price) lows. Ouch! The coin alone currently nets vendors ~$185.-195. (after -13% feebay's take) ... net costs, it's a just a 5% premium bullion piece (so: little/no numismatic value after all.) Sellers who paid $230. ($205. plus s/h?) or higher are now suffering obvious loss. Worse yet, Silver (POS) went up 7% ... but retail Mint Buyers' net actually fell in that period. The box/schwag adds ~50 bucks in "value" to the "product"... net costs, that's a 41% premium in total. Good grief, the "numismatic value" (26%) is basically/entirely just paper/pkging! And This Too Shall Pass... When POS hits $25. (imagine: in late April 2013) at current net to the puck vendors, that coin might sell for $151. and be "worth" just $131. to losing eBay vendor.  "Appreciate" ??? Quite the opposite, that'll be a HUGE loss from $230. paid on 8/12/2012. As they say, a fool and his money are soon parted. So let it sell out - don't touch that "investment" with a ten-foot pole, or not until that ATB discounts @~$150. later in the Spring. (It's obvious, unless you're drinking that POS>$500/ozt koolaid....)[/QUOTE]
