<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1240834, member: 112&quot;]Douglas - rather obviously I&#039;m not talking about buying coins from the mint. Nor am I talking about buying sets from recent years. I&#039;m talking about the buying those sets that are advertised as &quot;unopened&quot;. The whole idea is a gimmick, a come-on, a lure to get people to buy supposedly &quot;unopened&quot; Proof and Mint sets from years ago, and for the buyer to pay a premium over and above the going rate for the same date set that you can actually look at because the coins in the &quot;unopened&quot; set <u>might</u> be gems. The whole dang idea is a scam ! But yet people buy into the idea every day because they like to gamble. And any time that you buy an &quot;unopened&quot; set - you are most definitely buying a pig in a poke.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah, when you open that package you might find a nice healthy pig. But you also might find one that is NOT so healthy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
