    They can be had at closer to spot than that, but don't pop up very often. It is not much of a premium to pay if you were going to complete a set, but not worth it if not in any hurry.

    Pretty sure legally any business selling $200 coins would have to sell them at spot + gst or risk ato bs as they are legal tender non bullion coins (22K) and subject to GST so right now the lowest they could go would be $753.50
    As already stated, this forum is by far the best place to pick them up :)

    The thing is that when they buy a $200 coin they pay the buyer gst and then claim it back when they sell it. So if they bought it for say $600 they paid the buyer $55 in gst then claim back the $55 gst when they sell.

    I wouldn't pay more than spot plus $10 $20 max. Anymore you can get nice lunars for the premium
