<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1910227, member: 19065&quot;]Marketing uses emotions to sell products. You love or deeply enjoy and identify with baseball and coins so can&#039;t resist the offer to buy these pieces. The same probably isn&#039;t true with the First Spouse coins, is it? Yet those are rarer in minted amounts and will carry a premium later once they are no longer available directly from the Mint, yet they are ignored as the subject matter isn&#039;t something everyone connects to and can be persuaded to buy into. Marketing has a powerful control over people and decides for them how to spend their money. As I said, if you have a complaint about the Mint but continue to buy from them, nothing changes. Resist the urge, that &#039;need&#039; to possess these material things, and the Mint looses.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of the commemorative coins aftermarket prices descend anyway, their mintages of these products are enormous and so there&#039;s really no reason to feel it urgent to buy upon release. It&#039;s just hard for most to get their minds past the feeling of missing out, which is how people&#039;s spending is being controlled, and making the Mint profitable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
