    Just thought I'd post this here.

    The company who commissioned the stock horse coin has commissioned another product similar in terms of mintage, and price point.

    This one comes pre packed in a blister pack instead of with a COA, and is coming from RAM instead of Perth

    Was not aware that the RAM did mint-to-order commissions.

    Looking at what the Bindi sells for, I can't see this one being a big winner.

    I have 2 oz of the 2000 croc coin. Not very collectable at the moment I don't think so.

    Some of the German dealers are great however, and to be fair, that price was reached after 19 bids.

    This Aussie dealer has it for $110 shipped to Europe on a buy-it-now http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2014-Aust...121161915115?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item1c35d01aeb

    This German dealer, also a BIN, is only 54 euros delivered. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1oz-Austr...92241?pt=Münzen_Medaillen&hash=item19e1bc3c71

    I've had some great experiences buying from Germany and the dealers are very helpful.

    The feeBay prices are mostly always overpriced. White Sharky of Dead & Dead series is "selling" for 300$, whereas you can easily (with a little luck) get it for almost 50% less. You can make nice profits by using fact that people obviously don't search for lower prices. :)

    And it's usually better to wait for hype to settle and then move in. :)

    German VAT will increase in next year from 7% to 19% (on silver) so things will get interesting. :)
