[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2812762, member: 15929"]Not always. The only time they do is if the numbers are right and in the case of this particular product, the numbers were right. Not the 225,000 mintage mind you BUT the "No Household Ordering Limit" number! The sets will be unique with their Enhanced Uncirculated Finishes and the Big Box Buyers are well aware of this. Combine this with all the various sspecial ANA Slab Labels and First Strike™ Slab Labels and the profits will be very high. For a While. It's a fast moving market and resellers must move quickly. Some will enjoy a massive profit while a lot will only enjoy a minimal profit but that "No Household Limit" was the real money maker IMO. The fact that they sold out in 5 minutes should tell you something. However, the MOST important aspect of ordering from the US Mint is "Market Awareness". What this means, is the ability to predict a quick sell out and being logged in at exactly noon (ET) to get your order placed. Then, buyers will flip them on eBay or resell them to a Big Box Store for a set price. Should you get in on it? Only if you can be available to order these limited edition, no household ordering limit items the very second that they go on sale. I forgot to add that with this particular product, the US Mint made sure that a certain number of sets would be available for purchase at the ANA Show in Denver today. The sets were also available at the US Mint Retail Stores at the Denver and Philadelphia Mint. I believe that there is also an outlet in Washington DC. The number of sets at those venues is unknown which most certainly contributed to the "5 Minute" Sellout![/QUOTE]
