[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1910146, member: 19065"]I'm guessing they already have employee background checks at Amazon, and they certainly have secure facilities equipped to store merchandise of higher value. Individual books regularly sell for as much as an ASE and plenty list for as much as a 1/10 AGE... They handle sales of plenty of computers, electronics, video games, gaming systems, speakers, household products, and much more all within similar price-points of US Mint products. The security issues are the same to protect any product, be it a collector coin or the latest Nintendo and PSP. They also do a great job of taking pre-orders, which is something the Mint's 'order window' on the Mint to demand scheme failed to manage. Come Christmas time, do you want to risk the Mint's choice of that old willy nilly order fulfillment firm PBGS to deliver on time or go with Amazon's guaranteed delivery, which they state and can deliver on time so long as you order before a given date they give you. [B]"[COLOR=#0000ff]I know the mint has it's own police force[/COLOR][/B]" Yes, the Department of the Treasury is protected by the U.S. Secret Service.[/QUOTE]
