I have mixed feelings. On one hand, I'm angry that people would try to price gouge others so badly just because the coins sold out quickly. On the other hand, if people are impatient enough to pay that much for a $10 coin set, then maybe they deserve it

I think we all know these sets will be worth maybe $15 tops once all the orders and backorders ship over the next couple of weeks and months and there are thousands of them on ebay.

$50: http://www.ebay.com/itm/50th-Annive...em3f3a167037

$100: http://www.ebay.com/itm/50Th-Annive...em1c439b02dd

$500: http://www.ebay.com/itm/50th-Annive...em33929e3026

The price should come down. It's ridiculous that there are $50 and $500 both for sale.

I agree with the absurdity of those gouging the Kennedy 'Anniversity' coins which are still available at cost from the mint. On the other hand, I wouldn't be sorry for those you are dumb enough to pay such outlandish prices that are offered on ebay.

I'm not even sure that the uncirculated pair are worth paying $14.90 for ($9.95 plus shipping). I can't see any difference between the anniversary coins and the common uncirculated Kennedy coins I got last week. I was online to buy the anniversary Kennedy P and D set yesterday but cancelled when the price of shipping was added on, but I called back today and bought two sets (one for me and one for a friend who I'll split the shipping with).

Now we wait for the silver ones to begin!

I just threw this page together to monitor them. It sorts by price plus shipping. lowest first. It will exclude stuff that's graded.
