There will be no unfunded coins for this auction, unless you wish to receive the coins without holograms.

I'm not happy about this because you stated no unfunded coins would be sold.  I understand the price has risen and its going to be hard to unload that silver but I feel like you're changing the rules mid game.  I was generous with what I was wiling to pay based on the rules you stated.

[A-10]

We are only bidding on the coins it self at the moment
 We will still have load the coins with 175 monero which is non-negotiable. So if you look at as if your starting bid os 175 monero plus what you bid for the coins.

That isn't the point that Hellot is making though. These were not going to be sold unfunded... the loading amount of 175 XMR was mandatory on top of the bid amount, AFAIK.

Nevermind I see what you're saying.

Hmmm. I totally missed this, thanks Hellot.

As someone in the same boat, I can feel the sting, however, I can see how hard it must be to sell these coins with funding required at this point - I don't think anyone anticipated (or even really wanted) the price rise so fast and soon (except the DNM owners)?, so I can understand how he would want to still sell the coins at this point unfunded, I know a lot of people prefer unfunded coins as well, so who am I to judge, I just think that they can/will never be as valuable as loaded numbered sets.

I look at this way. I only collect coins that have value loaded onto them nowadays for the most part, and most are graded, but I can also see the appeal in owning  a set even without the holo as they are really beautiful coins, but going further - if I were to submit them to anacs without a holo, they would grade @ what, MS60?  ... Not too worried about it I guess. Smoothie can do what he wants, it's his silver/coins.

BTW, my #5 set graded for 2 X MS69 and 1 X MS70. These coins are really amazing, so whoever wins, good work!  

Anyhow, that's all I'm going to say about it. I understand, but otoh, I don't really care for the coins unloaded and without a holo, as beautiful as they are, it just subtracts from the true/full art of them IMO.

This is true at least for this action as I read it, and should be, since it's a fully numbered lower set.

I correct myself - How can this auction be for a numbered set, if the number is UNDER the holo that won't be on it if they chose to be unfunded? Now i'm confused. Peace out!

After thinking about it my comment would not make sense anyway as set #15 would not be set #15 if it wasn't loaded with a hologram.

There is no way on my end to mark a set #15 if there are no holograms.

So yes Hellot you are right. My original stance remains. Apologies for the confusion.

Question for Collectors:

What, if anything, would/could stop a buyer from purchasing a set of my coins, loading them with the full face value, then redeeming them by peeling off the holograms and say cleaning the coins from the hologram residue?

To you, as collectors, would it be any different than if someone just bought the coins without any holograms in the first place?

(Assuming the price they paid was no different than the normal price I set my coins at (outside of auctions) for both scenarios)

Your feedback here is greatly appreciated.

 

@Hellot, I am in no rush to sell these coin sets. When they sell, they sell.

In fact this auction was posted because I had several requests to post an auction for these XMR coins as I had not posted an auction for these in a while. I am already busy as is, but to fill the demand for the auction, I decided to "give the people what they want".

The difference is in exclusivity.  When you said you weren't going to sell these without them being funded, that set a barrier to entry and you are now lowering it.  If someone wanted a coin before, they had to get one from someone who could fund it originally - one of your customers. Now they can just buy one and it will likely be nicer than one that had been peeled.
 
I would care less if these weren't the nicest coins in my collection.

@Hellot,

I will be sticking to the "no unfunded" coins comment I made originally.

It was my mistake in putting that sentence at the top of this auction.

Thank you for your honest feedback.

UPDATE: There will be no unfunded coins for this auction or any other auction for these coins that I make in the future.

You're welcome, thank you for giving it thought.  I had mixed feelings about being open about it but felt it was the best way to check my self with other opinions.  These are absolutely some of the most beautiful coins and I love the exclusiveness of them.

So aside from your auctions, will any of the sale coins come unfunded?
