Yes I received some, but I'm still waiting on some others. The APMEX sets are waiting for me with family in Alabama. It was cheaper to get them sent there and I was worried about customs charges.

@Rockdaddy, if I order coins from APMEX and ask them to ship to my uncle address in US. Can I use my own CC? or I have to use his CC. Not only US coin dealers, Many retail stores in US offer free shipping for their Resident.

Rockdaddy "It was cheaper to get them sent there and I was worried about customs charges."
No need to declare these at the border - they are only $0.05 Face value and are considered 'legal tender (albeit non-circulated). I've been across both ways with out declaring SMLs as I wasn't carrying more than the $10,000 limit.

To BiBo: Quote:if I order coins from APMEX and ask them to ship to my uncle address in US. Can I use my own CC? or I have to use his CC. I contacted with them last week, and the online support guy told me that the CC has to have the US Billing Address, or it suppose to be US credit card.

Bibo I got my family in the states to send a personal cheque. They wouldn't take my credit card even after I added the US address to my credit card. With a cheque you also save a bit of $. ðŸ'¹

Dcadon I was worried about getting charged duty when I got them shipped. Sometimes they charge you even though its 9999 silver and then you have to fight to get it back. I didn't want any hassles. I'm not worried about them driving across with them. ðŸŒ

Quote: I was worried about getting charged duty when I got them shipped. Rock if your US family ever ships to you, have them use USPS. Your chances of getting large custom/duty charges drop signifigantly as opposed to FedEx and UPS who have their own customs brokers who seem to catch ever item. Also if you're bringing alot of stuff up from the states get a Nexus pass, I never get hassled going into BC.

They'll just ship it as a gift. I just didn't want APMEX shipping it to me. Thanks Neil 😉

Quote: On the mints website it now says the penny set will ship Dec. 7 As much as the Mint is apparently trying to teach me patience, I can't help but be annoyed by yet another delay. I'm still thinking that it's the box (though that's only a guess) but no matter what the delay, it is inexcusable. Come on RCM, get your...together. Adding to the frustration is seeing that dealers (even those in other countries} are at the front of the line. I ordered within a half hour of MC release and I get nothing, yet the sets are all over ebay and dealers have them in hand.  Retail is not that difficult. Provide good products, treat your customers right and deliver on your promises. One outta three, is NOT getting the job done.  PS. And stop sending me e-mails asking me to rate products that you have delivered 4 months late. Seriously, how do you think that rating is going to go? /end rant

They would makes more money if they just keep the customers happy and have return customers. When they sell to dealers, they have to sell it at a discount price where as they sale to customer at a retail price. Where as the way it is now, they are making dealer's customers happy. It kinda defeat the MC status. You can order early but you may be waiting the longest to get the coins.

Lostwords, this is absolutely true. I spent a lot, on the same new released coins at Colonial Acres, Canadian Coins and Currency or Canada Post - and allways was happy with my orders. Except this, do not remember any case that I didn't get the coin that I like for the issue price. Then I decided to try to be the RCM customer...well, no complaints, with the few subscriptions got the MC status, but now I have a list of orders at RCM in "Processing" status. Nothing criticall, but still....
