What I been doing is making a list of all the RCM coins ( I do this with all coins actually that I like or interest me)and I track their prices on a regular basis.

I rank them between 1-10, 1 being the most important, and so I just follow the sales and record them.

In this manner, they are always top of mind and I get a sense of fair going market prices and I can keep up with my collection

For the most part I totally agree with waiting until the coins go on sale. One concern I have however is has the seller mishandled the coin in some way. I see all kinds of pictures people take of coins out of there protective capsules. To me these coins are pretty much damaged and I will not knowingly purchase them.

Besides, with RCM's quality control getting so much worse in the past 2 years, I found myself (even buying directly from the Mint) having to exchange about one coin each month. It's easy to have coins exchanged with the Mint, but I doubt that can be done as easily with dealers. That's why even with some dealers offering 5% off new coins, I still rather buy from the Mint directly.

I really have to wonder how long the RCM can continue this. QC isn't great, PM prices are dropping, they have saturated the market with coins,,,, I dont see much in the way of positives going for them....
