All I see is a pattern. Inventory is going up and the price is going the same direction. See a pattern?

Their price is going up as they feel out the market. That makes sense to me (from a economics standpoint).

I suspect they are posting the inventory as it is received from the mint and the mint is just sending out the coins now - still waiting for mine from them even though I have a couple of them from other sources.

C/A likely have them trickling in and out as they are getting 'received' and 'issued' via their inventory system so the numbers are incrementing and decrementing in real time.

Colonial did the same thing last year with the ladybug if I remember correctly.


I guess maybe these two coins that sold out in a day or less are not great examples of normal practice.

My wife pushed me to buy (FYI - I resisted, screamed, no-no-please , then I gave up and bought it).

[she] Just can't wait to get it.

That's odd. Colonial had sold out today and all the sudden they have 15 in stock.

There is a review of the Aster bumblebee coin on youtube if anyone wants to have a look at it in hand.

Thanks for the link. I saw the video too, and likewise my wife is the one that wanted the coin. I had to oblige.

BTW hard to believe such a fat bee can fly with tiny wings like that...

Lady love it ... Indeed :)

Mine is skinny bee (which is similar as the one in Mint web site). But I found the fat one is much cuter :-p

@Koin Hunter,
Funny you say that because I have 2 glass bumble bees, one is way fatter than the other.
