I am boycotting the 25th Anniversary Set
Following up on Amarillo's most recent post...
Well! I am in agreement with Amarillo's post. What it did not catch is that the same company was offering these sets ungraded for that ridiculous price. They also have MS/PF 69s for quadruple the issue price and MS/PF 70s for 10 times the issue price (yes 10 times, $3,0000). I am sure the ungraded sets they offer for over 3 times the issue price is the ones that they did not think would even make MS/PF 69s by NGC. Not to mention that the same company is responsible for recruiting hordes of U.S. Mint website crashers by offering them the $60 premium per set and encouraging them to get in on the action early. Obvoiusly, the recruits were not serious collectors themselves, otherwise they would have wanted to order for themselves. I was not lucky enough to get one set, not for the lack of wanting or trying. I just could not get time off work until 2 pm and by then, the website had crashed. I got as far as getting the set in my shopping cart, but just could not check out before the site timed me out. That happened three times before my order finally went through, but it was apparently too late. So am I going to reward these scalpers by paying their ridiculously multi-fold asking price? Count me out! I still have a respectable collection. I can and I will do without the 25th anniversary set. I am boycotting these sets. Enough said!
