<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2197093, member: 15929&quot;]You&#039;re not guilty of anything except using an opportunity presented to coin collecting to pay for your coin collecting and THAT, IMO, is not &quot;greed&quot;.</p><p>Now, if you&#039;d figured out a way of buying 16,000 sets, I&#039;d have a different opinion but the fact of the matter is that the US Mint screwed the pooch on the Household Ordering limit and the coin collectors took over.</p><p><br /></p><p>I seriously doubt that the &quot;typical&quot; nickel dime coin collector gets bulletins from Coin World or Numismatic News or Coin News or whatever. I also doubt that they participate in open chat coin forums yet, its the folks of the coin forums that appear to take home a large percentage of these Household Limits and then play flipper.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do it and I&#039;m sure that most other folks do as well.</p><p>We knew the mintages.</p><p>We knew it was a first ever Reverse Proof Presidential Dollar.</p><p>We knew the Household Limits.</p><p>We knew when the ordering window opened up and we were there waiting at 8:55 am PT.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;We&quot; sucked a lot of these up and resold them to other folks.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just like &quot;we&quot; did with the Enhanced Uncirculated Native American Set (which offered a much better looking coin IMO!).</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t think for a second that its greed. I think it has everything to do with seeing an opportunity and then going for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
