Message:: [QUOTE="Juan Blanco, post: 1564711, member: 41665"]I'm guessing that rather than "free money" the OP is STILL CARRYING A LOSS (from 8/11/2011) of ~-19%, on the intrinsic value from then.Rather amazingly, I see these on eBay auctions for ~$55.89 - $64.55 ... with BIN at ridiculously higher (suckers') prices. Completed sales in the Sept 1 - Oct 30 target price range from $72. down to $49. lots more people overpaying still. Too muck kookiness, there. It's still nowhere close to 'free money' for any Seller (paying ~15% in fees to eBay/PayPal) who paid $67.95 : again, that's a -19.25% Loss. 10/30/2012: POS @ USD$ 31.87 and with an intrinsic value (dated) @ $42.66 per set, the 'premium' over Spot on this Mint product is still ~31 -51% for the overpaying eBayer auctions. Smart money bids with confidence and discipline ~ $49. - 55. at today's POS. If POS falls, Bids should drop as much, by %age. Don't overpay, lowball bid instead. Also, there are TONS on these sets glutting the mkt. I'd bet this 'collectible' softens up big time when the economy weakens in 2013-4; those premiums will fall dramatically ... likely, better buying opportunities lie ahead. So far: the 2010 Sliver Mint Set has been a BAD investment and quite the opposite of "free money."[/QUOTE]
