And very appreciative of the chance to purchase.....

Folks,

I am bursting with excitement over my opportunity to purchase a full set of MS/PF69 ASE 25th Anniversary coins from Jeff, NASF Firefighter. Although i was loathe to admit it, the inability to get one of those sets from the Mint was nagging at my poor collector gut. Between Jeffs more than fair price and the Internal Revenue Service tax return, the opportunity could not be passed. I have already set up my Registy Set to hold these beauties and I will make them my centerpiece set with better than usual photoes and copious descriptions.

I guess Thane got one thing right, there are opportunities to get pretty fair prices from our fellow forum members. But, that is always true as many of us shift our collecting efforts, prepare for retirement, or shed our duplicates, etc.etc.

Later,

Malcolm

PS-This is not the set purchased, it will arrive in a couple of weeks.
