<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 6646530, member: 13650"]Fortunately my collecting habits don't rely on the mint. It seems every individual has their own philosophy on what's going on. Mine is, I try to pay attention to the US mint schedule and see if anything interests me. Most years I haven't bought from them at all. I'll play the game for a rare ASE to collect it, but if I don't get one, meh...don't really care. I went for the V75 and couldn't get one. Two different internet connections over 45 mins didn't cut it. The mint sets are getting too expensive. The Mayflower commemoratives grabbed me so I was excited for that one and did partake in that. Yeah you had to be there early that day. </p><p> I think ASE/AGE burnout will slowly wash over everyone. I mean that's about 20 of their offerings for the year, every year in different combinations. There's nobody left collecting them all. lol </p><p> My main collecting interest is my US type registry set. Everything left in that is a tough road. So mint offerings are like a side distraction. If you're sick of it all just walk away for a while.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
