Agree with you James.

Don’t we all buy any coin with the hope of it rising in value, be it straight away or over time? Whether you sell it now, in 10 years time or decide to hand it to your children, the assumption we all make is that it will be more valuable at that point. So what difference does it ultimately make?
 
I don’t get the animosity on here towards people that sell their coin immediately. Who cares? Once you own it you are free to do with it as you please. Likewise if you don’t own it you are free to pay asking price or leave it. It’s down to you as an individual, freedom coinsters, freedom. We are blessed to have just to have this opportunity.
 
After all, we can’t take our coins with us when we pop our clogs. 
 

Whilst I get the direction your comment is Going in, I'm going to play devil's advocate and say "flippers" play their part in this mad old journey we are on!
Sometimes their actions can work in our favour and drive price upwards?
Without secondary sellers then certain collectors wouldn't stand a chance in hell in acquiring their desired coin.
Lastly and most importantly (90%) of us are flippers on some level deep down and we all have a price?
Whilst I've every intention of making the set and holding long-term, I'm more than honest enough to admit that if someone offered me an obscene amount compared to rrp then not only would they get my crown ....I'd wrap it in silk for them lol.
My point is....being angry because someone else is trying to improve the quality of their or family's life even for a short while is pointless.
Live and let live I say.

I see today was a huge day in the coin world!
Please share what you all managed to acquire and which one or two are you most looking forward to receiving?
Unfortunately I was unable to take part this time- I’ve just started a new job and this week has been very hectic. Been so busy. Even though I missed out on the good stuff i would love to hear what you guys managed to get. And the stories of any problems with the site of course.
 
I got some cupro nickel £5 because my word, that design is nice.
