I thought distributors were supposed to distribute. As usual with anything related to the Mint, it is the citizens that pay through the nose.</p><p>I saw the Home Shopping Network offering them for $5,000 a set yesterday evening (January 5th). They said they had 210 sets. This system is working out great for the middle men.</p><p>I called the Mint and was told to call (202) 354-7500 if I had a complaint. I was told this was the office in charge of bullion coins. There was a recording, but you can leave a message.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
