<p>[QUOTE="Cascade, post: 2421324, member: 75984"]Most of us that are criticizing it didn't buy it on principal. For an entire year we were all hyped to want it. We were saving money for the set, talking about it ad infinitum etc. Then they made it a bullion piece with incorrect specs and made the hh limit so large that they were targeting flippers. Then we learn they can't even fully strike the features to be true to the design. They put profits before product. And while making a profit is what makes the world go 'round they really pissed off a lot of people with how they handled this bullion in commemorative clothing. This is NOT a "didn't get 1 before they sold out" sour puss situation. This is a protest the idiocracy of the people in charge at the mint type thing. They had us strung along for a year then delivered a very sub-par product. Now, we get no nipple on the SLQ either. A full breast with no nipple. It pisses alot of us off. So, sour grapes. Yes.
