I was fascinated reading through this forum...

3. This shouldn't be looked at as an investment by buyers. The money is being floated by the credit card companies. As long as you trust me, or others doing similar things as i do, the higher you spend and "lay out", the better! All else equal, the commission should be less the more you pay because you're getting more points/miles, and have the ability to hit spending limits.

I disagree with this. Even though it is the credit card paying initially there is a certain risk the purchaser is taking and the more expensive the coin is the higher the risk. You can guarantee from today to tomorrow, buy any experienced person knows there is a small chance they will not get their money back, although you 'guarantee' it.

On a separate note, it's amazing (or not) to see how many of the sellers on eBay are clearly frum people globalseller770, metziya123 I suspect many more that are not as obvious too..

What I have read on this forum, is somewhat disturbing. To use somebody such a myself as a safety net to eliminate your downside, and play the upside for free, is not only unethical, but it's stealing. Those even contemplating it should be ashamed.

Not all the contract buyers needed preregistration, so someone may have bought a coin without contracting to sell to anyone.
Many of those who preregistered and 'promised' to sell it to someone in particular, didn't get to buy a coin from the mint. The contract buyer has no way to know which of his signees actually bought. So for a person to ultimately keep the coin for himself, after buying it for someone else, may be slightly unethical but is NOT stealing.

That's for a perfectly struck coin. PCGS is the grading company, PR70 is the top score.

Yes, my orders say the same.

For what it's worth, the Chat rep told me this "[Carlos] Thank you for your patience. I show your order is on a standard processing hold. Please allow up to 48 business hours for your order to ship."

But sometimes they say that and the order ends up getting cancelled. Happened to me last time.

One order on my account, one under wife's. Used different addresses but they still picked up on it because of billing addresses. I know that's why they cancelled it, but when I called in to see why it was on hold, they told me that everything was fine and that it was SOP. Point is, don't always believe what they tell you.
