    The same two bidders. If I had to guess, i'd say they're family members/friends.

    The one that starts with 'S' has zero feedback, yet has won three bids, and has only been bidding during the last 6 days. Go figure?

    Also this bit:
    Delivery: Estimated within 31-36 business days

    Because waiting more than a month for a 1oz common coin in Australia is acceptable now? Even Perth Mint is faster than that! ;)

    If I were you and had surplus of these, I would be flipping them ASAP.

    Once APMEX and Gainseville come online, the only way is down.

    Ebay works on the bidder placing a max bid

    Nothing strange it just goes max bid and shows the bidding

    The takeway is no bidding after 8 Sept

    Whoa?

    Something smells fishy, but it's not just two bidders.

    Maybe a whole family?

    So 1oz proof Dragons going for $500, $600+?

    How do the buyers of these coins ever expect to get a return on their investment?

    Seems ludicrous to me. Then again, I'm not into proofs so I probably just don't understand.

    Maybe they're not investors and are collectors who were unable to get one of the coins direct from the mint? Just want one of the coin to complete a set at any cost?

    I guess that might be the case.

    This is where the smart people make good money...

    Yikes...

    Ah well, that's the market. If people will pay it, then that's the price. When (if) people stop paying that price, it'll drop.
