<p>[QUOTE=&quot;avr5700, post: 2409577, member: 30063&quot;]Well, I&#039;m looking forward to another two opportunities to be cold start shut down and locked out of buying one at issue from the mint.&nbsp; That is unless I take a day off and pre-log my account with billing all set for the quick &#039;kill&#039; at open.&nbsp; And I may even do that.&nbsp; No, I will not pay a dime (ha!) over the issue price to a flipper.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the mint had any concern for collectors they would take orders in some non-competitive manner.&nbsp; I can think of at least two ways off the top of my head...pre-order periods with guaranteed reserves or post open sales windows that have set periods within which all comers will be satisfied at some minimal level.</p><p><br /></p><p>If they sell more than the limit in such a window, so be it.&nbsp; That&#039;s just the breaks for anyone hoping to artificially hold mintages down when they are so far below even the demand of casual collectors.&nbsp; You know...adopt a bias in favor of parties at least interested enough to know when they can purchase without being stampeded.&nbsp; But that&#039;s a bit much to ask of our US mint these days I suppose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
