<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chip, post: 946539, member: 19122&quot;]It seems that Littleton basically offered him Bullion price for his two coin set, It would be a good profit for him if he bought them at original mint prices. I do not know what those go for, I think Numismedia has them for somewhat more than bullion prices, if they are slabbed it may be different.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Another poster gave his opinion of a fair offer for the set at 1150, but I do not know if that is what he would be willing to buy them for or if that is what he has seen them wholesaling for.</p><p><br /></p><p>So is Littleton lowballing the op? I am sure I do not know, I recently bought a columbus commemorative set from a fellow coin talk member for a small premium above bullion, and showed it to a few of my local dealers who basically buy such things for spot minus 20%, but our local area is really hard hit by the recession, so they may have to rely on selling it to other dealers at wholesale to make a profit.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen some crazy high prices for some modern commems, like the Jackie Robinson set. My local dealers do not put much gold out there, so I do not have much to compare prices with.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do know that Littleton does tons of advertising and that might make some of their coins a little pricier to help pay for the marketing. but that seems like a ton of spread, offering a little more than a third of what they sell it for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
