    Missed it. Think it's a good idea to wait for it to happen again or just buy around $20?

    They might start the 2017's at $16.95

    Beware the backlash. 3rd call in a month. This time at 6:50am as I'm trying to get out the door. Starts right off into a run-on sentence and won't let me cut in. When I finally got breathing room - I stated it was the 3rd call and 3rd time I'd asked to be removed - and that I don't want the calls.

    Sticky strings attached with govmint.com

    I'm still happy I bought - but getting less happy each call. I've now started a time/date log. I'll get a nice $500 bonus when they violate "do not call" laws.

    I think the consensus was that the $16.95 price was a loss leader for them. I bought at $17.95 but it was still a good deal because even then it was barely $2.00 over spot.

    You can get them for under $3.00 over spot on a certain website. Pm me if you want the info.

    $2 over is wholesale cost direct form the Mint, so as close as you can get to $2 over is best. Anything under $3 would be acceptable, $2.50 or less would be considered a good price. In up trending periods, sub $2 is possible when dealers can buy one week then sell the next at a higher spot price.

    Just FYI: Do not call restrictions only apply to organizations with whom you do not have a business relationship. i.e. Cold calls. Since you have done business with them, they are allowed to call you even if you request they don't.

    I just blocked their number and it seems to have worked so far.

    They have specifically been told not to call. There are laws to support my right not to be bothered by them repeatedly.

    Garlicus Debt is dumb, cash is king.

    I placed 5 orders, or so, and only received one call and no additional mailings. I listened to her pitch and said I wasn't interested, and that was it. Don't recall asking not to be contacted again. Not sure if I just lucked out, or if you have just been unlucky.

    It was area code 651. I've already blocked it and cleared it from my call list.

    After reading this yesterday, I got my first call from them. Very nice young man was humping the new South African gold coin, I just told him I wasn't interested.

    OK, did my research and we're both right and wrong. I guess they've changed the rules regarding "established business relationship". From the FCC web site:

    "Having an established business relationship no longer meets the rules for permissible unsolicited calls to your landline phone."

    But, you aren't going to get $500 either: :(

    "The FCC can issue warning citations and impose fines against companies violating or suspected of violating the do-not-call rules, but does not award individual damages."

    Dug this Thread up as I started thinking about 2017 ASE's. Anyone think we will see a similar offer like this next year from Govmint?
