    Will lunar tiger prices drop? Apart from the ox one of the only s2 lunar
    to not be hit by the price drops is the tiger. i saw them online for $880 yesterday and then up to 1000.
    What do we all think? With no remints or privys keep them high?

    I picked up 10 at 50 each.. saw them cheaper around a week later..think all lunars are feeling the over supply, PM has cut off its nose despite its face...

    My lunar set will be snake free.. Im going on snake strike.. the RCM antilope looks good but.. wonder if they will remint them in 20 years?

    A lot of ppl seem to be rushing in for the snake, time will tell if the price holds. I noticed the most recent tiger sold for $46 on ebay even, maybe a fall from grace.

    I think the lunar s2 prices are slightly weaker these days but never seen $700 a roll in here.

    We still need snake to complete series s2 though + others. Even the starting price is $41.50, I think this is quite OK compared to ridiculous OX and not to mention the dragon.

    Well...let's watch how the snake doing down the track :)

    Isn't the cliche... cut off it's nose to spite it's face?

    I've kept my silver tigers but sold the gold. Pity i preferred the gold figure over the silver. I don't see them dropping much but then i'm not really playing with the coin, only the silver price.

    Yeah Proberbly, only ever heard the Schiff man say it so never on paper, its a relatively new one to me,

    RE: Oz and Tiger were expensive so 41.50 for snake is ok

    I disagree with this reasoning as you are quoting after market prices where consumers have choosen to keep or sell based on current price levels, very different from the brand new release prices which are usually the same as the kook (up until the Dragon).

    The market has changed now and greedy folk have some shears looking to fleece those who are happy to be over charged.. i paid $780 for my 2 rolls of dragons and that was the RRP at the time, i got ripped by two outlets who made supernormal profits at my expense.. now i am starving both of my business for that is how it works.

    Tigers were $60 this time last year but one has to remember that spot was about $40. So they were spot +50%. If you can get a Tiger today at say $45 and spot is $30, then they are still selling at spot + 50%.
