Sometime today my 1st order of 2 sets went to "in stock and reserved". CC has been charged, so that's a good sign.

2nd order of 1 set still has ship date of 8/9. I may cancel that one.

I'm amazed Goldmart has these for $169.99. I would have guessed the mark up would be more then $30.

On ebay theyre rarely clearing 170 and thats with free shipping. Even the PCGS 70s are really getting over 300 anymore. The NGC 70s are consistently selling in the 250 range

Goldmart has the 70's in First strike for $289.99 so this set is pretty cheap per coin compared to the 2012 and 2011 sets.

The main reason for slow price appreciation is because of the delay.... it's wearing off some of the excitements. Also, there are enough inventories from dealers to keep the price down.... wait a few years from now and you will notice significant increase.

Recalling the 2006 set, for raw set, it was in the $200 range up until around 2009, slowly climb to $300 range as the 2011 set hit the news and the frenzy started, now it's in the $400+ range. So, I would expect the 2012 & 2013 set to double their release price NO SOONER than 3 years. Just my speculative thought.

None of my 7 sets have even gone to "in stock and reserved" status yet. The two ordered on 03JUN show an expected ship date of 07/19 (five weeks ago) and the three and two set odrers from 06JUN show expected ship dates of 08/09 (two weeks ago). All still have the cancel button active (though shall not push!). My final two set order was placed just six minutes before close of sale so I expect it to be in last group shipped.

DARTH & Teach: When were your orders placed? My first order was 03JUN @ 5:03 AM EDT.

Yup, my is backordered and expected to ship on August 9. I ordered June 6, so, I'm guessing the original shipping date I saw of October will probably be closer to the truth...

After the fight I had to get into with UPS and had to escalate 2 levels and they still refused because they wouldn't hold my order for pickup with photo ID at the station I'm surprised yours were sitting in your mailbox.

The mint will ship to a burned out crackhouse but won't allow UPS to hold my shipment at the terminal for me to pickup with a state issued photo ID or drivers license with the same address on it as the bill to and ship to address.

That's the government for you.

Just got my first order of 2 sets today -- I had placed my order on May 20th.

Other than the delay, the sets look great. I do think I'll cancel my 2nd order though.
