I am trying to finish up some Dansco books. I am needing some 70's, 80's, & 90's mint and proof sets. I cleaned my local coin shop out and ebay seems a little pricey with the shipping.
I have a bunch of extra 2000's mints sets that I don't need. I didn't know if there was anywhere that would trade? If not, where is the best place online to get them?

Thanks for the help

Try antique malls. I go all the time. I got a 1970 mint set for only $25 and they have a 1973 mint set for $23. These are a little high because of the NIFC half/ikes.

There was a recent similar thread, and one responder (can't remember who) mentioned an online dealer Coins by Bobby, and it looked like some pretty good prices, and shipping deals. Worth a look...

I like using https://www.coinpurse.com in Nashville. They have a lot of the proof/mint sets for around $5.

Thanks oldno7. I ordered some sets from them. They didn't have everything I needed, but they had some. Good prices
