TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4867 Posts	Posted 02/19/2007 6:33 pm I got my tax return back and since I have not bought ANY coins in months, I decided to buy the 2006 mint set for the satin finish quarters. I thought this auction was reasonable overall. http://cgi.ebay.com/2006-United-Sta...sh_W0QQitemZ 320082415155QQihZ011QQcategoryZ526QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Report this Post to the Staff

TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4867 Posts	Posted 02/19/2007 6:53 pm I figured it would be cheaper buying the mint set rather than the individual coins in the mint cello. Report this Post to the Staff

garylcsr Pillar of the Community United States 1952 Posts	Posted 02/19/2007 10:32 pm don't forget the $4.00 for postage from the mint. it looks like a buck's difference but I think I would pay that buck just to stay away from that set that didn't meet the standards of the seller. with the mint still selling them I would go that route if you get a bad set they will exchange them till they run out. for a buck stick with the tried and trusted Gary Edited by garylcsr 02/19/2007 10:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Eric Kreszl Valued Member United States 85 Posts	Posted 02/19/2007 11:30 pm I purchased a 2006 Mint set as well. The Coins are very nice with the Satin Finish. I won't take these coin sets for granted. Eric Report this Post to the Staff
TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4867 Posts	Posted 02/24/2007 3:24 pm Well, this set came in today's mail. I found it interesting it was shipped in that brown box the mint sets come it. The mint puts it in another box. Anyways the set smells really smokey. Now I don't wanna get nit picky but shipping was $4.00 and there is a $2.43 postage label on the package. This was sent first class. I am not sure if the seller would have shipped priority mail if I would have gave him the extra nickel. Edited by TheForce 02/24/2007 3:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I shipped some things where the postage was figured out by the computer based on size and weight, IE, actual shipping. Well, when I went to ship the item, it ended up being a lot more than what the computer figured. Not sure how. Because of this I now charge a flat rate for shipping that should cover the shipment I am doing. A couple of times it has been 1-2 dollars below my flat rate, and a couple of times a few dollars more, but it has never been way off like it was when the computer did postage itself. Not sure if that helps explain what the seller is doing. I myself include postage in the price when I am buying and accept it as part of the sell price so I don't really care if the seller made a buck or two because I felt the product was already worth the price AND shipping.....
