Either its less lucrative than the other coins he bought or he's getting cheap, figuring people will buy for him anyways.

In my opinion it's not worth the risk of so much $$ for such a small profit something could go wrong and you are down $1200 I would not do it

I'm willing to buy for people but I'm not too comfortable shipping out a $1200 coin set & waiting  a week or so to get paid , is there anyone who would meet in brooklyn and pay for the set in person upon receipt ?

$60 anyone? $100? With the initial investment so pricey, the probable difficulty in procuring them with only 4000 being offered, and the return potential so high for the reseller, I would think the return for us peons would be more.  We'd probably break the site at 12  noon if you offered a $200 return.

Why would anyone offer a $200 return if you can't make anywhere near that ?
And also what do you mean a pricey initial investment, if you are paying with a cc what's the difference

Contact these people buying, most would be ok to arrange a pickup or dropoff as well.

I'm not sure I should go ahead with this one. Anyone here did the other buying for PFS coins and had a smooth transaction making the profit? Anyone had issues with them? $1200 is very risky...
