<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1311208, member: 19065&quot;]@ Chip: I would wait for your set to arrive before agreeing on anything. Make sure there are no rattling sounds coming from inside the Mint packing box. Next, wait for the Mint to announce all coins have shipped and that there are no more customers who are currently awaiting their open/in process orders to be fulfilled. Then watch the prices rise a bit again with these shut out customers turning to the secondary market, especially nearing the holiday season at the end of December. You may have more leverage with your extra cash you would be asking from your dealer at that time.</p><p><br /></p><p>We won&#039;t know pop reports on graded sets for a while so prices will not be settled on those to figure out a fair price. It seems a very large portion are likely to grade up in the 69/70 range, so there may be many out there. That&#039;s down the road though when we see published reports from TPGs. </p><p><br /></p><p>Keep your dealer interested but on your back burner. You might be able to do better selling unopened Mint boxes on your own very nearer to Christmas (when you can ship it Express to incentivize buyers). You may score more than the offer from your dealer, say $800 to $1,000 OGP. Or your dealer may be banging on your door to get a set for his own customers in 2-3 weeks from now, thus willing to pay your asking price. </p><p><br /></p><p>While the sets have officially sold out, not all orders are processed and I expect some attention to turn to online auctions and cause another price increase in the month ahead. This is only my speculation.</p><p><br /></p><p>In short, keep him interested but buy yourself some more time to take advantage of prices on the secondary market.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
