So, after hearing about this fabled 7070 dansco album, I have been searching high and low for one. Seeing them up for sale on ebay for over $100.00, I have been passing over - looking for a better price. I have found one and bought it - at a price of just over $60.00. still a bit much, but I just couldn't find one cheaper. I also didn't want to wait and pray to see if the normal sites that sell them at reasonal prices that are always out of stock. So anyway, my next challenge is to see how much of it I can fill..

you bet, When I get the album, I'll start a thread from package opening to initial filling from what I may have, then as I accumulate more coins.

You would think Dansco would be pumping these things out as fast as they could.

That's a fun set. Have fun filling it. All the very best to you Just out of sheer curiosity, did you add the gold page? I think that alone sells for 100$ on ebay.

Have fun filling it up. And congrats on actually finding one - I've been looking for just a single blank ASE page without much luck.

If you don't mind the green color, Intercept Shield Album Gold Page is only 3$ https://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pr...ld-page.htmlAnd has two slots extra for the 1$ type as well as the 3$ coin.

Dansco stopped making them for some reason. I think they briefly did a run of them a couple of years ago and now you can't get them anymore.
The 7070 is a great set; I learned so much building mine out.

I got my Dansco 7070 album for 34$ from my LCS. The gold page however does not come with it and a lot of price gouging is happening online. For example: https://www.ebay.com/c/19020572343So the options are very limited. Either go with a choice that is green colored but is 3$, splurge 100$ or don't do the gold set at all. Saw someone get the gold set (and a lot of other goodies like silver in three safe deposit boxes that included a complete Lincoln Penny album with 09-s vdb etc. for 12k) on reddit two days back. reddit dot com /r/coins/comments/lismkh/pretty_awesome_find_today/
Perhaps one can assemble it and put it in a holder instead.  All the best.  Edited to put reddit link. Mods please delete the reference if it is not permitted on here.

I had my Dansco gold page that I bought new 5-6 years ago on ebay for around $27, and I thought it was high, but seeing what seller wanted these days...sigh!

Greed (and definitely not inflation) is the reason. http://www.danscoalbumstore.com/dan...100_119.html^ Retails for $5.95 on their website but no the stocks have not been replenished for God alone knows how many years.
