As of today, here are some interesting statistic of this survey/poll
123 votes
31 bought ZERO set (represent 25%)
257 sets bought by 92 people (averaging 2.8 sets).
Still No-One bought 6-7 sets.

@The_Duke - same here. Expected Ship Date is still listed as 7/19 but my card hasn't been charged yet and the site still says "Backordered".

I have 7 sets on order. I ordered 2 on 03JUN which now say they will ship tomorrow, 3 on 06JUN which also say they will ship tomorrow, and 2 more ordered just minutes before closure on 06JUN which still have an expected shipping date of 17SEP. There have not been any charges to my CC yet so I doubt that any sets will ship this week. all of my orders qualify for 2 day shipping so once they ship, I will get them straight away. All of the sets are keepers, for myself and immediate family members (wife & kids), with a couple of sets that could be gifted to the right persons. None of my sets will qualify for special labels (FS/ER) but since I do not have my collection coins graded and do not buy graded coins that demand a premium significantly above raw ones, I do not really care this time. I still have 4 unopened 2011 sets (in 4 mint boxes) since they do still qualify for PCGS FS labels and there is the off chance that they might have value to a potential buyer some day.

ANY mint packaged, unopened sets will Always, IMO, have a premium attached to them, especially sets that were minted low!!! The 06,11,12, and now the 2013 reverse proofs, only ones made, not to mention the 2013 EU!!!! All veru unique ;)

Let me just add my Two Cents on Goldmart... Horrible. They send out the sets in envelopes and claim they come crushed from the mint and all items are not returnable. I think I'm gonna dispute their practice |

Goldmart complaints seem to be getting a lot more common

My 2 sets from the mint were to ship today, so I went to their website to check the status of my order and now the shipping date has changed since yesterday. It used to say 8/9/13 (yesterday) as the shipping date, now it says 7/19/13 (today) is the day they will be shipped. What's going on now, you would think if they were going to change my shipping date today that they would change it to a future date and not to a back date?

I just received my first two sets today.  The "Enhanced Circulated" ASE, IMHO, is spectacular. I only hope the low number does not skew the price because I believe all ASE collectors should have one for their collection. I'm impressed with the mint's technique, but have the feeling they are trying to emulate the Canadian Mint. But, in the final analysis, is that a bad thing?  |

@carmykle - I collect a few items from the Canadian mint. They are nice but many/most are over priced "limited editions". I am not a huge fan of the cafe style minting process. I really don't ever need a glow in the dark coin. I don't need a 1 ounce $115 baseball coin - because it is 1 of 7500. Most of these coins I find to be over priced bullion coins. I agree the Enhanced ASE met my expectations as well. |
