<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roughwater, post: 7854832, member: 122150&quot;]I don&#039;t want to pay $105 for 2 quarter 1 half and 1 dime in 999. Never mind more than that on the secondary market. It&#039;s just insane.</p><p>So insane in fact, that the 2021 set, if they are put up for sale on eBay at all, sell for less than mint issue price right now the ones that do get listed are selling for $80-$100 or they aren&#039;t selling.</p><p>Imagine that, the mint is still selling them and they are selling on eBay for less than mint issue price... yikes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not a defender of the mint. If a person wants that set (2021 Silver mint) and can get it for less than the mint price by all means go for it!</p><p><br /></p><p>However in checking Ebay I&#039;m not seeing that happen at least not via the &quot;Buy it now prices&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I did a quick search. The lower end of the ebay price is 114 and up for a new unopened intact, 2021 Silver mint set. I can&#039;t say what will happen in the future nor can I speak for the ending auction prices, I&#039;m just talking about the present buy it now price on ebay.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my search I did see a couple exceptions, one was a open box and the other was a damaged box. One of them was 100 dollars plus 8 dollars shipping so very close to the mint price. You really got to pay attention as to what you are buying on ebay. One set I saw that was slightly cheaper contained the two silver Quarters but the rest was a clad proof set. I also saw 2021 Clad proof sets going for over a hundred dollars on ebay when they are only 30 something from the mint. I can&#039;t say you won&#039;t get a better deal on a Ebay auction than the mint. Only way to know is to set through several days of watching and waiting for the outcome.</p><p>As to the Silver quarters in the set, they are selling for 60 and up on ebay just for the quarters at buy it now prices.</p><p>I&#039;m new at this and there is a lot of things I don&#039;t like having to pay a lot of money for. I don&#039;t like to pay 600 for a copper or bronze small penny. But if you want a 1909S Indian head in AU or something close in quality that&#039;s the going price so the book price often don&#039;t mean a lot if you are a buyer and want something.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some of today&#039;s mint coins will be tomorrows rare coins. Proofs as you all know are the absolute finest coin product of any year and normally have the lowest numbers minted of any mint product, thus represents on average the most valued coins for any year. So if you want to help those of us out who do buy them, then please don&#039;t buy them, then my proofs will be all that much more rare and valuable![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
