My impression is that yours are random year, circulated.

What is condition on this coin? I would assume new, 1st circulation?

They are random year, all uncirculated.

You also charge an extra 5BTC for shipping, making your price much higher than APMEX's. In addition, you don't include an air-tite case so the coins begin tarnishing before they ever reach their destination. Not to mention yours are random years. Now please stop trolling my posts with advertising your higher priced lower quality products. It is unprofessional and inconsiderate. Thank you.
Firstly, my only intention was to give people a baseline to compare against when bidding.

Secondly, our coins come in either an air-tight polycarb or an anti-tarnish sleeve (only lower end products come in a sleeve).

Thirdly, Apmex charges ~$30 for shipping and handling, and any payment method besides personal check (which has a two-week clearing time) will cost you extra.

No need to get hostile,

Now, now boys. I've received many coins in plastic (anti-tarnish?) sleeves in which they remain to this day. They still look great. And besides unless they are for display, tarnish is good, as it protects silver!

I'll assume you simply forgot to add in your inflated 5BTC shipping cost.

Secondly, our coins come in an anti-tarnish sleeve.
My point was, the sleeves you ship your random year silver eagles in do not match the cost or quality of our air-tites.

Thirdly, Apmex charges ~$30 for shipping and handling.
APMEX charges $12.95 shipping.  Please stop with the misinformation and trolling.  Thank you.
We've just updated our shipping costs.
Go try it out!
