anybody else get a delay email on the box? I was just informed that they are now shipping the case with the 7th coin in July and not the 3rd coin.
but to make it up to me, they've waived shipping (I'm a MC Member so this doesn't do anything for me)

Just got it:
Dear Customer,
As a subscriber to the 12-coin series, you'll be interested to know that the first coin in the series, the Inukshuk coin, is nearing sellout of its mintage of 40,000 coins.
As a result of this demand combined with a packaging delay, we would like to inform you that your collector's box will now be shipped with your seventh coin, the Niagara Falls coin, in July. We apologize for this delay, and would like to inform you that shipping charges have been waived for the third coin, which begins shipping on March 12.

Just got the notice. I'm also a MC member, so the waiving of shipping charges is irrelevant.

It would be nice if for us MC members they would reduce the credit card charge for the cost of the March coin itself by the amount of the shipping cost.

I will call them and cancel all subs with demanding on the refund of shipping. I bought this only for the case and expected the case on the third coin based on their promise. What kind of shady business is RCM running now?

Also got this mail.
Even not surprised - every time, when it related to the "collectors box" - there are shipping delays.
Only F15 box came in time...
Interesting, if the GW customers also will get this box later?

If every design of coin like glass ladybug, if every silver coin sell around $30/oz, Who need free boxes ? It is because of them trying to sell overpriced and so-so deigned coins. Now they start this scam. You are reaching Government of Canada, please wait on line, you call is going to be answered....

I'm somewhat conflicted by this news. If it reduces the number of boxes they 'lose' after three coin cancellation, then I don't mind it so much. But for the majority of collectors who purchased this set for the whole package, having to juggle 6 coins in cardboard folders waiting for a display box is sad. I guess what I really find offensive is the offer of free shipping (worth what 2.99? or 7.99?) for a delay of a $500 item. One percent savings? Gee thanks. And since most subscribers are probably MC, this really is a meaningless gesture. On the other hand, if they compensated buyers every time they had delays, the RCM would have been out of the NCLT business years ago.

i am sure the delay is just to stop the people who were planning to cancel after the 3rd coin just to get the case. now they have to buy and own at least six coins for the free case. they can still send back the 7th coin if they wish.JUst like the 1 ounce set, it originally was coming with the first coin, not any more..

Anybody had issues with the beaver?
I'm currently experiencing a worrying issue myself. I susbcribed to the O CANADA half once silver coin. I received the first one no problem (the Inukshuk). Different story for the Beaver. It says in my profile that the coin was shipped on Feb 11 via lettermail. My credit card got charged the day after. We are now Feb 25th and still no coin. I called twice and the representatives told me 2 different stories. The first one was that the beaver is actually backordered - even though there is no notice at all on the website. The second rep told me to wait longer and that Canada post can start an investigation only after 30 days... Anybody experienced this before? They are in Ottawa and I'm in Toronto. Should take a few days max to get here.... I ordered a bunch of coins with them before and this is the first time this happens. Frustrating....
