I would not normally comment on other forum members pricing but as you have quoted eBay and GS.be as comparisons you didn't mention the primary dealer in Europe, EMK, who have these in stock today for €39.75. Most of us on here will already know this - sorry - but we do try to help one another on this site.

seems more than reasonable to me. Including shipping he is still managing to offer below EMK too? Or have i missed something?

Thanks for letting m know. I wasn't aware of that. Thought goldsilver.be was the cheapest.

goldsilver.be not always the cheapest , just easier to find reasonable price . BUT to avoid keep on asking the same question again and again ( happens almost weekly bases before you join ) then it is easier to tell people GSBE is cheapest

I still don't get why @airmac pricing seems to be an issue compared to the EMK sale price, or why he should have mentioned them?

He is offering 5 delivered for €200. EMK is 5 delivered for €208.70.

Exactly.

Just checked my own records, and in May 2014 these cost me €37.50 each from another dealer, plus shipping. So yes, in my own case pretty much €200 for 5 of them. 4 years ago. It's not as if he is making much return on these. Yet still offering them cheaper than the dealers currently.

Good luck to him with that good price, and to hell with mentioning EMK, i say.

When it suits them they can price the stock horses at under €30. Which they have done on the 2016 & '17. They wouldn't dream of doing that 3 or 4 years ago when the series had some momentum. EMK shoulder the reasons behind the premature ending halfway through this nice series. As they held ownership and distribution and set the prices themselves, and for other dealers in the €35+ range. At that range interest in the series waned over the first 3 issues, as many started to feel it was a little cheeky as a continuing fixed launch price for a bullion coin. Regardless of a low 10k mintage. They killed their own commission in the end, as they didn't take notice of collector sentiment. Then they paid some goon who basically administered the stock horse a lethal injection with the lazy design of the 4th coin in 2016.

€35 should have been the dealer asking price one year after each launch. Sub €30 at launch and the series could/might/maybe have gone on. If you commission a coin series you have a duty to protect, develop and make adjustments to it along the way to turn it around. Not throw in the towel.

Ok, i'm done now

As a wise man said....... i'll get me coat

Oh, and apologies Airmac for hijacking your sales thread. I guess if you want, you can ask admin to remove this if you prefer. Or just let me know and i'll edit way down.
