I have never been in any sort of customer membership position with the Royal Australian Mint.
I don't like being marketed to, with mint product.

No direct buy stuff until mintages drop to 1k on NCLT, or silver hits $30 and NCLT demand picks up.

Should there be a real eye catching offering from RCM between now and June my M/C is done.
Even as an M/C Platinum I was unable to get the 2oz Voyageur through my rep.
However, others ordered from the web and were successful.

I can't even be bothered to do the $XX for $XX to maintain it.

"No direct buy stuff until mintages drop to 1k on NCLT, or silver hits $30 and NCLT demand picks up." Fully agree

It would be a huge incentive for me, if both price and mintages did drop. A mintage of 5k or less would meet demand and still drive interest. Its usually flippers that complain on not being able to get more than 2. So 5k seems a number to satisfy majority of collectors. I would be more inclined to keep membership, if Canada Post didn't offer free shipping. I have gotten spoiled with free shipping. This is why the membership isn't as important. I remember prior to getting free shipping how annoying it was.

I remember the glass butterfly where 10k were not enough initially, until a few months later, when the flippers depleted their stock.

I voted 'Yes' but only because I now have a 'lifetime' MC membership so don't actually have to meet any purchase thresholds to maintain it.

I expected the no to be at least 80%, from how people were posting about lack of interest in keeping their membership, while others indicated they were bargain hunting. I wonder how it breaks down by country, with Canada vs USA. The Americans are saving about 33%, so I wonder how much this comes into play. Again thanks to everyone who is participating.
