<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2226524, member: 26302&quot;]I was referring sir to one chance per account who was a long term customer of the mint retail products. I believe this would not allow MCM to be able to immediately get a thousand sets after issue. Sure, they could buy them from collectors, but at least then long time buyers of mint products could profit.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Sure, could MCM game it a little? Yeah, but not like it is now. Sure, could some collectors use this to make a little money and sell to MCM? Yeah, but again at least the mint went through the effort of trying to offer hot offerings to those who had bought from them through thick and thin, not those who only cherrypick special offerings. I bought the 2011 ASE set for my son. I would not think twice if I would have been unable to because they gave preference to long term retail customers. However, if I missed out because dealers like MCM and Silvertowne are overwhelming the system with fake buyers, THAT would have pissed me off.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I truly, truly understand and agree with members here who are upset that they buy tons of less desirable coins from the mint every year, but get shut out of offerings like this. It really is not fair. The only reason the mint is in business is because they have a US government monopoly. Any private company operating like this would have been out of business years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
