What’s up Steemit, today I’m going to continue on in my stacking stupidity series with the PAMP bars.
I know I’m going to ruffle feathers on this one but for me these are a big waste. While these bars are extremely generous they really do nothing for my stack except fill up a 2 oz space.
These bar are extremely expensive or at least the two I have were and their presentation part relies on the packaging.
What I me by that is the packaging is part of the piece. You’re really not supposed to cut them out. The problem with these are the clear plastic bubbles around the piece itself.
Plastic overtime scratches and discolors so if they’re not properly stored they can start looking crappy because of it. Price point is another factor in these because I believe I have $38 in each of them and while they may show to hold their value, you really at the end of the day gotta get someone to pay you that for it to really be true. Mintage is another thing, I’m not really sure how many were minted but I’m sure there’s quite a few really making them not rare.
In my stacking strategy I’m really leaning on making the least possible headache in the future for myself or The Wee Bear who will get my stack. In a dump situation I’d rather have more ounces than fancy shit that’d I’d need to spend a lot of time on trying to squeeze out premiums that I’ve got into each piece. In my local area pieces like this in my coin shop pretty much sit and collect dust. The buyer in my local coin shop doesn’t really care about what you spent on the piece and more than likely will give a buck over spot for pieces like this. I really would like to encourage each one of you to investigate your local area to see what’s actually liquid and consistently moving in and out of the shops. because let’s be honest, on a spot rise and the some of you that will be taking profits, are you really going to try to piece out individual pieces on places like eBay and such? I would say the majority would not. I find that as easy as stuff sounds in my head, it’s 100 times harder doing that in reality and usually doesn’t work out the way I thought it would😁 So there you have it, as always this is just my opinion and if you differ lest hear about it down below. Thank you for your time, I appreciate it and I’ll see you tomorrow✌🏻
