CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12839 Posts	Posted 03/04/2023 11:58 am Defintely a good option, but by purchasing from the aftermarket, not only do you not get them in your hands right away (if you're an instant gratification kind of person), you also run the risk of getting cherrypicked sets/coins.

How about the 2021 Morgan and Peace dollars? I know the costs from the US Mint are high now (overpriced), but I always buy things TODAY instead of waiting for possible drops in pricing. Sometimes it doesn't happen. Report this Post to the Staff

Sometimes it doesn't happen. If that is true, then Mint pricing is still too low. Let's double the price every year and see what happens. I mean, if people buy regardless of what things cost then the sky is the limit. Report this Post to the Staff

dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 03/05/2023 11:38 am I wonder if the increased shipping costs are included in their prices (ofcourse, I'm sure)? What I mean by that is the shipping of the metals to the Mint for processing. Has the shipping cost to customers also gone up? I had a subscription for the ATB silver sets but, don't have any subscriptions for now. Report this Post to the Staff

I agree. I want them sooner rather than later.
