<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1259444, member: 18157&quot;]I &quot;fixed&quot; the chart problems and added the previous weeks info. In a typical week, once the Wed AM London Fix is publish (Kitco.com is a good source), you can compute the Thu AM to Wed AM average and what the new price tier will be. If a change occurs (up or down) the <b>new prices go into effect that Thursday at 10 AM</b>. If you see that a price change will occur, you can speed up or slow down your purchases to get the best price.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I mentioned earlier, at the top of the Mint&#039;s price chart, there&#039;s a list of seven (7) criteria the Mint uses when making price change decisions. I&#039;m fairly certain those decision criteria are used each week after the Wed AM Fix is published. However, when prices vary wildly in a short period of time, the Mint always reserves the right to suspend sales. </p><p><br /></p><p>These past couple of weeks have been unique. From W/E 8/17 ($1763) to W/E 8/24 ($1855), First Spouse prices <b>rose two (2) tiers </b>in one week...</p><p>Unc: From $1041 to $1091</p><p>Proof: From $1054 to $1104</p><p><br /></p><p>The following week (W/E 8/31), prices <b>dropped two (2) tiers</b>...from $1855 to $1780.</p><p>Unc: From $1091 back to $1041</p><p>Proof: From $1104 back to $1054</p><p><br /></p><p>By Friday (9/2), prices were already <b>back up two (2) tiers</b>. The Mint probably feared a weekend run on Mint products at the lower prices and wanted to wait until Monday (or Tuesday) to decide what to do. I really don&#039;t know why the Mint suspended sales...but that&#039;s my guess.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/NewGoldChart-1.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
