What I'm not getting is:
A - How can ppl be selling it already on ebay if there is no guaranty they will make one of the 17k in time? and
B - Why would someone bid on it for such a high price before its being sold? maybe they will make it in the 17k and get it direct themselves?

This one already has 18 bids?!?!

It's like trading in derivatives.

so if i put in 3 entries i should put in 3 different addresses in the big box on the form?
I don't think so, PFS is happy with however many orders you get, The mint is the one that has a household limit. That box is for PFS to know where to send your check.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

You basically for sure won't be able to get into more than 3 orders.

A. Worse case scenario he can end the auction..
B. There are collectors out there who want a bunch of sets. This is not a new concept I have a friend who has been doing it for over 6 years.

Or you might not make as much.  This is pre-IPO pricing. If you want to take your chances after the IPO, it might go up, and might go down.  Sometimes there's an IPO pop, and then it goes down. Sometimes it pulls a facebook and drops and creeps up over the next few months.

Looks like the comparable sets held very strong value post-IPO.
