I wish you good luck, I would be happy if the set arrives and the coins are not banged up......LOL. I have been collecting Proof/Mint sets for many years, it would seem the Mint's quality control is NOT getting better. Although the 2010 ASE's came looking cameo like...

I received my 2011 proof set about 10 days ago and they were spectacular they look almost perfect. I was tempted to send them in to NGC to get graded. I get two sets and I keep them OGP. My collection goes back to 1960.

An example of auction fever. I saw $2 dollar notes at an auction three years ago going from 13 -20 dollars a piece. When I got home I looked on ebay and saw that the same bills were up for bid at $5 or less with no bids. When it come sot coins or currency many people over bid because they automatically assume they are valuable.

Coin Auctions are fun to go to and participate in but you have to know ahead of time what the top value is and when to stop bidding.
