Silveroid, that's a good larf. Perhaps only medicine better than laughter is larfs at one's own expense? Cheers!

I just received the 'spend $750 get $100 off coupon'. With the expiry date of September 24th, it's useless to me. Seems to me our 'percentage' last year, we had a couple of months to spend it, and it wasn't dependent on any further purchase - just spend that amount, maybe more, and make up the difference. Not impressed if this is all.

I got the Spend $750 get $100 off coupon about 10 days via email. Today I got the snail mail version. I used it already. A month or two ago I got another coupon for $25 off for spending $175. I don't think these are the Master Club Reward percentages based on what you spend yearly. These are promotions aimed at people who has not spend much lately at the RCM. That includes me. My spending is down significantly.

I've been getting them and I'm no longer a MC member.

I have a question to ask. How long should I give my RCM rep to respond to my order? I'm new to having a rep, and have never ordered through one before. His new release email went out 2 nights ago with an attached order form. I replied within an hour with what I would like. That was 2 days ago and I haven't heard a peep back. Should I continue to wait, or submit the order online myself? I don't want to have 2 orders for the same thing, as it seems the online orders are impossible to cancel.

Phone the 800 number in the morning, and ask for your rep. If it got lost, but was first placed, you could be missing out, if something sold out.

If you ordered online before you should have an account. In your account go to your profile and check your order history if your rep ordered for you it should be there with the order date.

It may take a few days to appear in your order listing. Your best bet is to either call your rep directly (as they should've given you a phone number specific to them) or simply send him/her a second email asking for confirmation. They may have checked it off their list of things to do and just didn't send you a message to let you know.

Thanks for the feedback. Best advice given to me was to call. I called my rep's direct number and left a message. Within a hour he called me back. First time speaking with him. He seemed very nice and took care of my order right away and will look into another issue I had asked about. He even hinted about a Super new release this Monday. I'm glad I called.

Reps are great at RCM. Just contact them via email or phone. You are how they make their living!

My former rep was awesome but has since taken a different career path. My new rep, and current lack of MC status have limited my dealings with the RCM.

I usually look forward to special announcements and advance notices, particularly if they're not already posted on these forums. Still appreciate getting them from my Mint rep despite the dramatic downturn in purchases over the past year. ' It's a Bird...It's a Plane...It's....' insert appropriate finish to this sentence. Good Grief!! Here I was hoping the email that arrived yesterday would be related to the TML circulation coins and not more overpriced Kryptonian crud. Extremely unlikely that the Telephone Booth is a nod to Doctor Who or perhaps a future dressing room for Leafs players if they don't take home the Stanley Cup in 2018.  Having looked back on the October release thread after posting I realized thanks to Ottawa CC, that it's in regards to the 10oz silver coin that only a handful of dire fans will purchase.

With the MC year coming to an end June 30, has anyone received a special offer to get your MC level up? Last year I received a spend $ and get a free MC wood case. Again this year I received a notice that if I order $, I'll get to a MC level and get a free item. If there were something available I wanted to order I might jump on this, except the latest release is ho hum.

Remember that the cutoff for the RCM "Spend" from July 1, 2017 through to June 30th, 2018 is what will count towards your MC status for the next cycle. The purchases that you may have made recently that are shipped and billed after June 30th, 2018 will not count for this cycle.

Quote:Remember that the cutoff for the RCM "Spend" from July 1, 2017 through to June 30th, 2018 is what will count towards your MC status for the next cycle. Sadly, I won't qualify for even silver status after July 1. Previously I had gold status and can't justify investing a significant amount on gift ware in a short time frame that doesn't interest me. The numismatic department in my opinion is in for a rude awakening in light of many collectors scaling down their purchases and perhaps focusing more on the basics of the hobby. Recently I have concentrated on silver bullion and medals of interest that for me personally, offer more value and enjoyment and aren't ridiculously overpriced. Unfortunately too much of the RCM products are available at a fraction of issue price within a few short years or less. Locally I have access to a well respected coin dealer who offers VIP discounts and rewards, often with items in stock before they are made available by the RCM. Having the opportunity to see the item on display before deciding on the purchase is a big plus.
