My son got lucky and actually got one, and received it on Friday. He wants to sell it but we both fear scammers. We see it going for over $1000, and it would be great to get that amount. We are not sure how to proceed in getting that amount without fear of being scammed out both the coin and money. A local sale, face to face, is what I told him he should do, even if he got less than the $1000 going price.

Collectors don't even have a chance anymore. These greedy dealers/flippers scarfing up all of them before you can even get one. It's pathetic.

If this is true, then you have more and more people who become VERY CONFIDENT that the big price spikes that happen on these coins won't last for long. So the spikes become lower and lower and the coins have to be sold that much more quickly. After a while, it just isn't worth doing it anymore. I'm guessing that when the mint's website is working just fine and everyone gets what they want, that will be a bad sign. Just my own speculation.
CORRECTION: Now I am confused. Which ones were the good ones- S-mint or W-mint?
