<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ldhair, post: 775692, member: 11540&quot;]I can see where the folks that make albums are in a bit of a tough spot. </p><p>Lets look at Dansco.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>They make an album for just the UNC coins, one with UNC and proofs and one with blank pages.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now they need one for UNC and satin and a second new one for Unc, satin and proof. Some collectors may want one with just satin and proofs. </p><p>Now they are up to five or six albums for just one type of coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lets say Dansco started making them all and fill the pipeline of dealers and collectors. At this point lets say the mint stops the satin mint set program.</p><p>All the product in production and in the dealers hands are a big problem.</p><p>It&#039;s hard to sell an album with wrong pages, so Dansco is now making replacement pages and albums with new item numbers. It hurts my brain trying to figure just how many different pages that would be. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now lets say the mint stops the satin mint sets but starts it back up in two or three years. Mint changes must drive the album makers crazy.</p><p>I can see why they would wish to be very slow in any changes to albums.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of my modern albums are a wreck from the changes when satin came out and the changes to some coin types. In a few years maybe the dust will settle and I&#039;ll find the pages needed to make things look right again. </p><p><br /></p><p>What a crazy hobby we have.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
