Thanks for the info, crab eater! I entered, but at the end found out shipping will be A$35.00. I'm ambivalent about winning.

Available from Downies for $40 or you can get one on ebay starting at $100. At least 20 sets sold on ebay already with prices ranging from $100 up to $180 - what is wrong with these people? If the fear of missing out is that bad, they might need therapy?

A ballot for a mint set.... You've got to be kidding me.  And they've jacked up the price  No rush. One year I'll get it for less than half issue price, just like I did for the rest of the mint sets... Quote: Does everyone who enters win? RAMs new marketing strategy to make their products seem important

Quote: I am hoping Australia Post Shops have them too? Nothing at the online shop so I went instore and was told they have been 'delayed'.   Will be looking everday to see when they are 'in stock'.  Sold out everywhere I have looked online.

Quote: Why do you need any more
Do you collect coins or are you trying to deal in them? I need more sets to satisfy my uncontrollable urge to collect coins at RRP.    Postage is the killer when limited to only one set per order though.  If I can walk into an Auspost shop and buy another set I can eliminate the cost of postage.

Yes, tried to buy one but something wrong at checkout ,no PAYPAL option as normal, only credit card. Tried to pay by card and that failed also ? Just tried again and payment went through  Forgot about the free postage if you spend over $30.

The RAM are a bit slack when it comes to shipping orders. Usually get an email from them when your order has been dispatched. I suspect your order will processed in 6 months or so.  Only joking, maybe 4 months? Not sure if your order will come by ship (bit longer) ?
