The $2 baggies should be out soon? Is it September or October?

I just bought a roll of the $2 changeover coins on eBay for 2x face which is the same price as the baggies from the RAM shop work out at :good:
I will be ordering some from RAM when they become available as well
to complete the sets of baggies I have put together

robbiegal · August 30, 2016, 08:09:07 AM

wynard coins have the rolls too and have had them for a while now

trout · August 31, 2016, 11:48:35 PM

I was originally going to wait until this last $2 coin became available before buying any of these to avoid the extra postage by getting them as they were released but I was concerned that they would be sold out if I waited, it looks like my concerns were unfounded and I have spent the extra money in vain :dash1:
On Monday you can get the entire set of $40 in face value of baggies for $50 including postage :good:

Same here. It has cost a heap in postage so far and I see the other coins are still in stock at the RAM.

trout · September 01, 2016, 08:02:34 AM

I think that the ONLY reason that they are still in stock is because of the 1 set or baggie per transaction rule RAM imposed on these.
You had better get in quick on Monday before the eBay bottom dwellers clean out not only the $2 baggies but the entire inventory because they will ALL be available for just 1 lot of postage.
Mr Cotton and his cronies will have these in black hologram stickered rolls and baggie sets at inflated prices on eBay and elsewhere in a heartbeat :dodgy:

Where have you guys heard that you can order the whole set of baggies for $50 including postage? Or have you just deduced that from whats available now by adding the $2 bag to a $1, 50c, and mixed 5, 10 & 20c bag?

Cheers Mike

That is the way that RAM have structured the sale of these.
You can order 1 lot of each of the baggie offerings at a time and pay the one $10 postage fee for all of them.
