MS-70 2016 Pandas for $60.50 on Amazon

I know that they were even less on Prime Day, but this deal (with Prime shipping) is still cheaper than what Apmex is offering them for. I just picked one up.

Never use APMEX as your price basis.

It's a valid point of comparison. APMEX is a widely used site, the largest probably, even if it is widely recognized as being more expensive than others. JM isn't even offering these right now, for example.

I think his point is. Apmex greatly increases their prices as inventory gets low.

exactly this.

OP even stated in his answer "it is widely recognized as being more expensive than others." So, then why would you use it as a basis for price comparison?

So...what's the point of all of your posts? Forget about the Apmex comparison if that riles your feathers. It's a decent deal with fast shipping from an extremely reputable company. Instead of pooping in my cereal, have some with me!

I'll quote you from another thread max: "I don't understand why some people price their items alongside what the major dealers do. You as an unknown individual, need to lure me into buying from you as opposed to the big guys. Especially when they provide FREE insured shipping. Why would I take a huge chance with an unknown person when I can buy the same thing for the same price in brand-new (not fondled/dropped/tossed around) condition for the same money?"

Buy the coin, not the slab. I might get a panda graded and sell it, I would never pay a premium for a graded coin though.

This is a fair deal, but keep in mind that these ms-70 pandas will likely never appreciate much due to the fact that the ms-70 first strike population is nearing 8500 coins. I own three of these that I purchased earlier this year for $53.00. They are nice, but 8 million of these coins are being produced. What I like about this coin is that it is 30g of silver and I believe that this is the first coin from a major mint that is in grams.

Good luck!
