<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hotpocket, post: 1910300, member: 44182&quot;]I think they are simply producing based on demand, especially for more niche products.&nbsp; Why mint 500,000 of the new HOF coin when there is only demand for 100,000?&nbsp; And you don&#039;t know demand until orders come in.&nbsp; So yes, I think that they push delivery dates out so that they can feel comfortable that they will not over-produce.&nbsp; &nbsp; Part of the reason why they have a subscription service at a 10% discount - so they will better know the future demand.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no facts to back up the above statements, so pick it apart if you like.&nbsp; But intuitively that&#039;s what I would do if I ran the mint.&nbsp; Maybe I should apply....</p><p><br /></p><p>Have their been any disaster coins by the mint in the past? A coin(s) that they over-produced and there was not nearly enough demand for?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
