Jees mate, you still waiting for them?

Sounds like they are playing chicken with you.

Still waiting for my refund 10 days later,might just cancel the lot.

Do it, buy them graded in PF69 for less than RRP in April/May 😂

Agree mate, the longer they leave it and people get their Christmas credit card bills in Jan they will be loads of people bailing out. 

 

And that’s not good for them or anyone else 😞

Yes I agree on that point. How long you were waiting for some silver releases and how long some others were also waiting was a complete joke. As long as they turn up January I  will be happy but if I was waiting 6 months I would also cancel. Did you get any discount offered or anything for the wait?

I didn’t get anything. I complained etc. I got a sorry and a sorry but we don’t know how long you will have to wait etc. 😞 

Hopefully they learnt.

I think the good part is the RM taking it off your CC right away now and it not dropping off. So they either need to pay it off in a month or wait till they arrive to try flip but will have paid some interest which will eat into profits.

 

Thing is I’ve been burnt by RM charging me and not delivering for 6 months on various releases (I cancelled at that point because they still couldn’t give me a date), this affected my decision to cancel my sets too. I’m not paying for something and hoping to receive it again 🤷‍♂️ 

Hopefully they are now on top of these issues for all the other buyers. Fingers crossed 🤞 for all!

If it sells 12 sovereigns a day it will be almost a year before it sells out, that is if it can maintain the same level of interest. Until all sovereigns are sold its almost impossible to expect prices go up signficantly for any of these.

Get a cheap PF69 or PF70 one post NGC work 👌

There's a household limit of 1 on the 5-coin set.

Depends how many house you have 😉 

I hear more 5 coin sets might come back into stock shortly!

5 coin set no longer available

So in 18 minutes (ish) they sold 70 x 5 coin sets 🤔 

Something fishy going on there! They’ve probably removed them all and will update stock one by one until they are all gone. Make it rarer to make sales.

It didn’t look good with stock numbers increasing on this set and they will have known about this.

That or a dealer took all 70???

I’m cancelling my 5 coins sets today, so add a couple more to the stock left at RM (and other dealers and eBay).

I’ll pick them up in PF69 in the secondary market for less I’m pretty sure (this Memorial sovereign release). Role on March 2023!!

I was speaking to an American collector in the USA yesterday and he wasn’t interested in this release at all. Seems like they have a big dislike for Charles and he has the same outlook of picking it up in the secondary market.

A lot of this stock is going to go straight to NGC and then buyers will need to be found.  If it was in demand by collectors why wouldn’t they all be gone now?

My Acc Manager offered me anything I wanted the day before release and she has never done so in the past, in fact. Getting anything has almost been impossible. Sounds like she’s struggled to sell to her contact list also 🤔 

Add to this, paying for it now and hoping I get it in January 😂 has put the final nail in the coffin for me. I was waiting 6 months+ for a 2kg Three Graces which I had paid for and was promised I’d receive every month (due to packaging issues). I even offered to collect the coin from Wales raw!!

Nah I’ll just buy later thanks.

Aside from all things topical

Where's our forum favourite green eye monster Barry on release day for his comments

Hope he hasn't bought from an authorized dealer post launch 

Imagine thinking the 5 coin set was sold out so you bought from a dealer instead 🤦‍♂️ 

Is the mint helping their dealers out with a drip feed?

Leap of faith.

You always have option to return and refund buying direct from RM on new issues 

Hi Paul,

My card has been charged and shows as pending.

Are they just checking cards and then actually charging them in January do you know?

I might keep the faith until January I guess.

Proper “squeaky bum time” on this release 😂 

Cheers 🍻

Well, if they didn't sell a lot, maybe they can speed up the despatch time? Mind you, I'm still waiting on my Silver Charles 50p from back in October.

 

The amount I’ve cancelled with them due to speed is a joke. Everyone else seems to get there’s months before me. I expect the same in January hence considering canceling my purchases and buying on the secondary Jan-Apr

Given the higher mintages is it really so bad. The 1 sovereign doesn't look great with 4k plus left but still?

Just thinking I can get a better deal in 2023 😉 

Gold down today too 🤦‍♂️ 

If those 5 coin sets aren’t sold out by tomorrow I’m expecting that everyone who would pay over the odds for one will already have a set (or more than one set) and then the PF69 graded ones might be on offer for less than RRP in March/April. With the PF70s just slightly more than RRP. That 1,200 mintage is almost double the previous 5 coin set. 🤔 

Why haven’t the dealers mopped these up?

Just now, Gypsy said:

Did the 5 set come up for sale. It’s gone 

It was there for less than a minute 

And all 5 coin sets gone again.

Back on stock now on RM website ! 

Not wrong!

That’s about £18 Million in sales with a 50% profit margin 😱 

It took 18 minutes to sell out on 5 & 4 Coin sets 😮

As an American, my deepest sympathies to you Brits on the death of Queen Elizabeth.  What a long and magnificent life.  Virtually the only monarch most of us have lived under.

Thanks Jeff 🙏 😢
