the RCM did not show sold out on this set untill only 3 to 4 weeks ago, it was always showing awaiting stock. if these RCM offical dealers followed the RCM own guidelines they are not to sell above issue price untill sold out. take gate west never sold one set at issue price. canada post is a different story they are not privately owned to their credit sells everything at issue price.

Dealers do not have to sell at the RCM price it is up to them to set their own prices this comes directly from a RCM distibutor

like most or all manufacturers with distributors or dealers they tell them you can sell or set your own price but you cannot sell above msrp. I am almost certain this would apply to RCM dealers.

I buy from an authorized RCM dealer who is not one of the big dealers and he sets his prices according to the market demand and does not have to follow RCM prices do not tell me and others they cannot do this because it is done all the time. The most popular coins the prices are jacked up right away and all others usually stay very close to mint prices

And if you had called them and tried to order, they would had answered what: "sold out" or "please call later, we expect more of them"? I doubt that status on mint.ca is legally official for the dealers

Do you have these guidelines? ;)

Just resurrecting this thread to see if anyone has received the set from the Mint yet.

They still have Dec 12th as the ship date so hopefully soon.

I haven't yet. So far, I think there are only two confirmed cases here. I really hope that they send them out before X'mas.

2 confirmed cases. Lol A lot more people than that have received them. It doesn't seem like they've shipped out a second or third batch yet. I know a bunch of people who are still waiting.

If the RCM wasn't a monopoly, they would be out of business.

Still waiting for my order from the mint - ordered 1 from them. Also have/had 2 on order from different CP outlets. One I received about a month ago, the other is still 'awaiting shipment'.

@Rockdaddy, so far I've only heard of two confirmed cases on this forum receiving their orders from the RCM. I know of a lot more people who have received from dealers.
