Collection

News: Registration is free here at the CPMF!

Is this worth getting? Plus HST.

Speaking only for myself, no, I wouldn't buy this set.  There is no mention of condition, and from experience watching these items on the Shopping Channel, they price everything above the Charlton's catalogue value...and then you have to add 13% HST!

Also, note that you would be lacking a 1967 $1 note and the 1979 $5 and $20 notes.

If you have a little time you can build this collection yourself for less money. Attend coin shows, show on ebay, visit dealers, on the forum, etc.

If you are in the Toronto area, the Brampton Coin show is this weekend, and May 31-June1 there is the Toronto Coin Expo.

Thanks to all the senior members who replied and PM me with their expert advice. I watched this item sellout in minutes without buying.
