Arrived today. Finally. Been such a long wait. Quality wise I think every coin has at least one dot on them somewhere. Missing frosting so wouldn't affect the grade. 
 

Not going for an exchange as I am guessing it would be a never ending battle to get 2 full sets with no missing frosting.

I received my box for the quarter ounce gold. Hopefully get the 1/4oz gold coin this year some time 🤣

For those that got the 3 coin sets today. Did you all receive dispatch emails from the RM?

I'm still waiting on my 2 x 3 coin sets. Lovely to see further quality going down hill.

 after just speaking to the mint. To maybe help anyone if they were in the same situation as me.

The money had not been taken and it was because they had been declined. The RM said they are having issues with the banks authorising currently due to new checks.

They re-attempted my card today and payments have went through.

Can you order over the phone? I tried to a while ago (a sovereign i think) and they sead it had to be ordered online.

You used to be able to. I am not sure about recently.

Have you updated the card details exactly for this subscription, or of another order/subscription, because when your card details change, you have to update them separately for each pending order, they can't make it "once for all" 🥴

Yeh mate over the phone I had to update my details per order. Hope its worked but I imagine the RM will have messed it up

Yup, but strangely not for the 1oz Silver

Cheers mate. Mine has not took the money yet. Will leave it a couple days then phone to see. I updated my cards details with them the other day as well.

For the 1/4oz gold for those that have been paying for the set.

Has the money came out of your account for this yet?

Anyone any idea on cost?

Yeah FAB went south quite quickly. It was a strange set up. Really don't know what the creators had in mind. I have a nice NM full set of Revised 

I know absolutely nothing about it and thats what got me caught out. I think the collector box I had for MTF was modern horizons 2. They did well at the time.

I am unsure now what to do with Monarch F&B. I have 10 booster boxes sealed 1st ed. I may see if there is even any valuable cards you can pull and may try just break it all out.

Have you got any yugioh?

Got sucked into MTG a bit before Covid, Loose cards in the white boxes. Sealed items has doubled since picture but most is boxed up.

 

Nice haul mate.

I had bought a few collector boxes during covid with no understanding of MTG and still made money with no clue.

Flesh and blood on the other hand well that hurt

Bought 2 boxes in the end. £104 each. 

Nice mate good price. 
 

Id keep sealed. I opened mine and print run was not the best. I have sent my promos for grading. Will update you with results.

For anyone interested:

For a bit of research @Stacktastic find out the exact card name of those 3x promos and find them on ebay graded as a 10. Now same as grading coins it is not a given but you will see the reward that is there.

The higher value stuff interests me as i dont want a suit case full of them. 
Nice to purchase the odd thing on sale or cheap as and when it comes really. 
Out of interest what else if out there and is retail the cheapest way to buy this stuff??  

Following some detailed research Im probbaly on board on this. 

One question - will this sell out quickly? 

The first release sold out quickly and had big premiums on ebay. I imagine the reprint will take time and then slowly increase in price.

its hard to say mate. I usually do well because I have a good knowledge in a few areas i have researched indepth. But i always buy a small amount of everything and then some do well the others just stay sitting until they can do well.

Right now in Pokemon I think that would be your best investment product you may be able to snipe one for £100 on ebay.

There is also buying vintage graded cards. I don’t do this but a lot of people do. 
 

The main goal is to buy sets with cards that are desirable so when the print run finishes people will pay a premium to try pull it.

@Stacktastic

No this is a newer release.

basically for a quick understanding. 
Most investment grade pokemon stuff does best when it is of charizard.

this is the charizard ultra premium collection. 
Sets alone with charizard available to pull in packs are more expensive on the secondary market.

This comes with three guaranteed charizard promos. All great artwork.

I think to buy this and keep sealed is a no brainer.

Timescale is a hard one. I have kept some pokemon since 2016 sealed and only realised gain 4 years later.

Yes that is the product

Unsure if anyone cares but the reprint of the charizard Ultra premium collection has caused its resale to fall. I believe its well worth a buy and hold strat. If not you can crack it open with 3 promo cards and grade them.

I have purchased one to crack open and grade the promos.

You usually can’t lose on Charizards.

@MancunianStacker incase you are interested mate.

No dispatch for my 3 coin sets yet 🙁

I ended up with 20/25 2022 bullion sovs.

1911 PF65 Sovereign

Didn’t attempt the 1979 proof.

Also an assortment of the upcoming memorial sovs but none arrived yet.

So not too far off what I wanted.

Nice low mintage on these

I think it was @FlorinCollector who said a few days ago about buying this set, grading them, selling off the 1/4  & 1/2 and keeping the (now much cheaper) Full Sov. I thought quite a few might go that route. It's £180 cheaper to buy the three in this set than to buy them all individually. 

Yep I did that last time with the 2022 four coin set to make my full and double cheaper.

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!

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?
