So has anyone bought an Emu?

They are still available on Bullion Money for approx $42 but there are already several listed on eBay that have bids at $70!

I think I might just grab one just to have in my collection. I don't care how much above spot it is, I'd spend more on a few beers at the pub anyway :P
 
Wow... !??!?!?! 14 boxes, 300 a box, that's 4,200 of them or exactly 14 % of the allotted population in ownership of one guy!!!!???? if he gets $30 profit on each thats 126,000 USD in profit, oh my gosh... I could buy a house with that!!!
 
Surprised there still isn't any dealers selling the 2018 WTE

Only KJC is, but their postage prices are ridiculous

Hopefully I can find a WTE soon - I expect them to develop somewhat of a premium over time similar to the 2014 due to the 50k mintage

I could help out with the wedgies and a few emu's to boot if you wanted Soprano

You think KJC are bad at postage

Perth mint want $17.50 a kilo to ship to Melbourne

So a box of 300 coins works out at just under $200 for 1 box
or nearly 60c a coin, I nearly hung up when I was told that,
and that does not include insurance, which I think was another
1 and a half percent or so, I cant quite remember so another
30-40c per coin, these prices are completely off the planet

Then they wanted another 1% plus for paying with plastic

Whereas I can buy a box of 300 from Perth bullion for $25 shipping

Is it any wonder no one buys at Perth Mint

Anyway drop me a msg or reply here

cheers grant

Wow, that's ridiculous.

It's actually disgraceful that they charge those blatant ripoff prices. Last time I checked KJC MINIMUM postage charge is $49.95 - absolute joke

Thanks for the information mate, I'll shoot you a PM too :)

EDIT: Every time I go the Perth Bullion I usually just go to the "New Products" section and the WTE wasn't there so I just assumed they didn't have it, but if you go to the 1oz coins sections they actually do have it :)

Perth bullion has them for $47.80 each now can get them way cheaper overseas. Any word on a Tiger/Phoenix release date???
 
I must have snuck in for a couple before they brought that in. I think it's an interesting move by Perth Mint, one would think if their is a huge demand for the swans ( with only 2500 mintage ) they would sell out by the 8th taking into consideration stores like Apmex etc and even smaller ones would have already bought in bulk.

Goes to show how much of a niche market they are. I think sometimes people like to believe these kind of coins are more popular then they really are.
Perth Mint have saturated the marketed with way to many designs and most people are over it. Though the 2017 swan was probably the first decent new coin PM have come out with in a while, elegant and classical design. I don't think the 2018 design will be a big hit though.
 
I got the email from them, went straight on and bought a couple so like Grimey I was probably one of the first to buy so didn't get hit with the 1 limit, fortunately

Your hit the mark in regards to Perth Mint saturating the market. I also get their monthly subscription and the amount of different releases is ridiculous. Guess they haven't caught on that sometimes less can be more.
