Guys, you don't get the joke here. The real joke is that those coins are NOT available for purchase. If you click on any of them, you'll see "This item is no longer available for purchase" message instead of "add to cart" button. That's really funny!

Got it and posted that 20 minutes ago .

Really, this is ridiculous. As yingyang wrote, all 2013 coins are on sale at post offices for 25% off - 2012 are 40% and at least in my neighbourhood, there is plenty of inventory to choose from.

Nothing on sale here for Cyber Monday. CP should feel shame...of course they won't. Who are the real fools here? lol

I wonder if the "Not Available to Purchase" message is just a system glitch?

Maybe they are a little confused in the IT department at CP and the 'real' sale is being loaded?

However, George W. Bush almost said it best.

Nothing, actually. I was just curious about what CP might be offering so I visited the web site.

Hey folks!

What's all the fuss about?

Canada Post is a Crown Corporation, is it not?

You have to search for "Farewell to Penny set". Even not for resale, this is nice item.

Did the CP commit (except the foolish misleading add) to sale the coins with discount, or we were expected, that the CP will do everything, just to clear their stock of coins?

The silvertowne sale I guess isn't too bad..... I dont have much data for all the categories but like the pf 69 slabs, those been going on ebay for an average of 63 USD....

so not bad of a sale, someone whos been looking for the family at rest, (like me) would benefit from this sale.

That said, I would pass, as I have stated before, once dealers start slashing prices on specific coins, you can bet months later they will slash the price even more...

Ad is back up and they have more coins now including 2013 and 2014 Superman.

Any that I clicked on where available for sale, even those that were not at 9am.
