<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2013645, member: 15929&quot;]Personally, I think the US Mint is going crazy and being run by crazy people.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aside from the yucky web page modifications, I just read where these nut jobs are considering monkeying around with proof set finishes and offering as many as 4 different proof sets in 2015!</p><p><br /></p><p>Additionally, the &quot;idea&quot; of commemorating &quot;their products&quot; appears to be gaining a foothold with the possibility of &quot;commemorating&quot; the Winged Liberty Design of 1916!</p><p><br /></p><p>It will not be too much longer before folks start committing to these wacky programs only to have the plugs pulled somewhere down the line when product offerings exceed their capacity to supply demand.</p><p><br /></p><p>This exact scenario occurred at the end of 2008 which left some folks holding the bag on &quot;incomplete&quot; and &quot;never to be completed&quot; collections.</p><p><br /></p><p>And, while the Kennedy 4 Coin Silver Offering is readily available, I will not be expecting the same service for future offerings as folks need to remember the fiasco (created by the mint) over the HOF coins and the Gold Kennedy Half Dollar (again a fiasco created by the mint)!</p><p><br /></p><p>To avoid this same thing from occurring, they made sure that 150,000 sets were available for shipping before they ever went on sale. The very fact that MorganDude was able to order a set AND get it shipped within the hour tells me that the madding &quot;crush&quot; simply did not occur and I do not know why other than the fact that maybe folks just don&#039;t care anymore?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]363120[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
