Quoted from iceman44:2 weeks is the rolling answer IM still looking good NP!
Which was almost FIVE weeks ago... 
Thanks for the kind words though Ice, maybe WOZ will show up before my Cointaker LED order gets placed! 
Quoted from coasterguy:As a business person myself I do wonder. If all of these distributors keep lowering their prices to around or just above cost, it seems the only people making money then are Stern. Meanwhile, it seems they are scrambling to blow out TF LE combos now. which make resale worse for those who bought early. I wonder why a distributor would want to shlep around NIB pins for a couple hundred bucks or even less? That's no fun to me.
Because when a distributor has the game pre-sold, he's not taking any risk. All he has to do is collect some cash, place the order with Stern, then coordinate delivery. When he buys and holds, there is considerable risk involved and usually a commensurate price increase (see Automated Services website; also see GameExchange's thread about the NIB Dale Jr from a few days ago).
Quoted from coasterguy:It just seems that their would be a set "Minimum Price" to sell a NIB pin so all of the distributors make something. I wonder how JJ will handle this.
Because of antitrust laws.
Quoted from RawleyD:Astrodan's getting 'Let There Be Rock' LE at the Lost Ark.
Didn't know if you knew that or not BR, would be a great place to test one out.
I heard he was gett-n an LE .. Its Gonna be a while.. I should have mine before he does.. I Hope 
They Must be Make-n some Good $$ , he called me last week and made the Highest Offer on TOM.
I declined & sold it to The Banker.. I'll Find him another, if he don't 1st..
Quoted from PinCrush:I read somewhere (can't find it now) that LEs would hit the line before Premiums.
That is what I understand also , we should get our LEs before premiums .

I wonder how Apple does it. Their resellers don't seem to offer discounts on new products very often.

Same Way Stern Does.. Min Advertised Price.. That why you will see them do the Free $50 GC or something with an apple product..
I just don't think Apple would allow some discounter to sell their stuff much cheaper than in the Apple store for very long. They would just cut them off.
Quoted from NY2Colorado:someone wanna PM the special discount price?
Call CoinTaker .... 570 847 6366
