    Hey guys,

    I have asked a few relatives in china to see what the costs of the current years panda is.

    They have been quoted over 300 yuan which makes ebay look cheap :D

    Are they asking at the wrong places? What is the price from the mints?

    Yep, recent Pandas are often more expensive in China, often due to the local tax on silver.

    Yep, some Pandas are often cheaper overseas than within China.

    That price is ridiculous. even with the 20% VAT in the UK it's cheaper to buy here.

    This is a more reasonable price. This is the price they should be. Where did you buy from? There are a lot of fake Pandas in China, I would be scared if I was buying there.

    Hi Mi lao shu,

    I am going to be in China in around a months time, if I could get some cheap I would have done. But it seems the price is slightly more expensive in China than it is in Europe.

    Demand vs Supply...

    Higher Demand with Lower Supply = Higher Prices
