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!
NO way I call BS,something smells The real $ stopped at around $100 ,after that its 2 newbies ,1 with 0 FB I smell the Falcon GT scam,drive the price up between 2 people ,pay the fees & nothing changes hands
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
Long time lurker, first time poster. Thought ya'll might get a kick out of this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/150661871241?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Your auction Toad? There was talk of these going for around that price and 3 coin sets at 800. At those prices I hope my orders comes through.
Watch this auctions for german prices http://www.muenzauktion.com/cdn/ This evening each minite ends an auction for a 1oz Dragon. At the moment, 7-8 Hours before the auctions end not only one is lower than 50. Ninteno
800 for the 3 coin set sounds pretty good, I had one up on Ebay and got a top bid of 680 didnt sell it though
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?
hows $140 a coin ? http://www.coins-stamps.com.au/shop/2012-1oz-silver-bullion-coin-year-of-the-dragon.html i put in an order with this guy a good 6 -7 weeks ago was happy to pay up then his quote was in the $55-60 per coin mark talk to him today and suddenly its like oh "have you been watching ebay ? " guess he wont be seeing me up his drive again !!
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.
