<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 2495271, member: 13650"]I don't agree. I have re-sold a few mint products myself but the fact is they do not exist to be a wholesaler for flippers to make a side income. If I worried this much about the precise value of every coin I obtained I probably flat out just wouldn't collect at all. </p><p> If we MUST set aside the fact that people do actually just want to own one because they want one, what is the major concern with these 24k gold coins? Of all the coins to worry about..... this is pure gold. Should be highly desirable design. This should have the least concern. Unless you expect gold to crash back to $300 which is never going to happen. PMs are volatile. It's the risk you take buying any of it. It's always a 50/50 chance of it going either direction. Be thankful it isn't higher right now IMO. </p><p> </p><p> Not sure how or why people insist on equating a 1/4 oz of raw gold's value with a finished coin that required refining, multiple manufacture processes, packaging, profit to pay workers involved, etc...etc.. There's a cost to these existing. It's going to go well beyond melt value. If that final price determination is unreasonable, they will go on sale and sit there until 2016 ends and then they can melt them back down. Personally, I doubt they will make it 2 hrs. Whatever the aftermarket does, who cares? It's a HH limit of one. It wasn't going to be a volume flip anyway. The melt value of these will far surpass the initial release price some day. I don't really care when that someday is. I'll just be happy to have one. This should be an excellent opportunity to see what demand really is. Maybe they'll languish on the site for weeks....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
