It always surprises me how much someone will pay for a new item. I really don't think the person paying $300 for a $56 set is doing so out of speculation or investment. I think they just really want the set for their collection and they want to have it right away. There is something special about being the first to have things. With over 300 million citizens in the U.S. alone, those 50,000 sets will be very exclusive. Do you believe that these will continue to be hot items for long? Will the January 1, 2010 eBay selling price be $90 or $190? How about Oct 15, 2010? | ||

Six months later you will be lucky tp sell one. However there were a lot more than 50,000 of them. I think the price will fall. [ Edited Fri Feb 05 2010, 06:52PM ] HOBBY'S: Collecting Variety coins.
