Quote: I have no idea how fast these will go, but I am still getting the set and will be ready at noon the day it is released. Same here.....in fact, if they let me (again) I'll buy it at 11pm ct! the night before.

Log in at 11:30 AM EDT to confirm my profile is current. Refresh the product page at 11:55 AM EDT and re-login since it will have timed out since 11:30 AM. Watch the clock, F5 the page at 12:00:00 NOON EDT, make the purchase, then wait for the e-mails.

Noticed there are some pre-sales on this set as well on ebay ranging from $280-$330. Didn't check if any have sold but would baffle me if they have.

These pre-sales always baffle me. I find it difficult to believe that anyone savvy enough to know what this set is will also know they have a shot at one directly from the mint.

Everyone collects for various reasons. I believe this Medal set will be sold out before 48 hours, Why, because We as coin/medal collectors want to have sets like this for Our collections, also because there are places like HSN that live to swoop in on sets and collectibles like these, knowing Exactly that collectors want this set and IMO, there will be some that , for what ever reason, will not be able to receive these otherwise.Love the 2 per HH limit too.  Best of luck to all " Collectors " hoping We all get Our fair share........

I'm assuming the Mint has a valid casino license in DC.

Don't forget ebay bucks. Those sales could have been free from them for all we know.

That info makes me want to buy 2 sets and list one on pre-sale. Who doesn't need an extra $100?

I guess it would be possible to get it free with ebay bucks...after spending $33,000 on ebay
