Just because you place an order at a postal outlet does not mean you will be able to reserve a coin many of them place orders and only receive a fraction of their order if any at all.There are thousands of post offices they cannot all get there limit to sell to people this happens all the time like the penny set and the last dino coin and others.So do not only rely on canada post to get the 2nd coin you may be disappointed when you are told you will not get it.

^^^^^^^^^
The post office outlets actually have to logged into the postal office system to order the product. Going to the post office and asking them to order is one thing but when they put in the order they may find the product sold out. It happened when I tried to order the 5 penny set. The clerk had no idea what the coin was, did not have the product number, etc. So I describe the coin to them and even left a deposit. A couple of days later I went in again and they told me it was sold out.
It really depends on a sharp or knowledgeable clerk. Clerks are so busy they can't order right away. You just leave your name and they will order it for you later. Like in a couple of days, in which time hot coins are sold out.

 it happen to me too with the 5 coin farewell to the penny set. Difference is the set was mintage 5000 and the first dyno was mintage 25000. we all should be able to get some from the mint, dealers and from CP unless there's a real drop in mintage.IMO

@kenney I can totally understand your feeling but there is no such "we all should..." IMO. Glow in the dark is a very good example. Unlike 5 penny set, it was available during the public release from both the Mint and coin dealers. You could have chance buying it. Meanwhile you could not stop others buying or even hoarding it. Lost the chance means "sorry, no more..." Group of 7 is another good example. Now you still have chance to buy all the released coins at their original price (or even lower) which may fulfill your "we all should..." Are they good collection? yes, they are...but now you may have concern why they are not good in the secondary market, right?
To me, it is simply 1. Human nature 2. the laws of supply and demand
When the planted agent told us that the 2nd dino is coming, again, you have chance and you decide...

If the mintage is 30K as suggested then everyone will have a chance to get one! No way that will sell out in the Masters Club!

Just visit the PO at lunch time and place the order.
All I can say is with the 30000 mintage and the design of the second coin, it will take a while to sold out. Should be available for general public.
The first coin is more impressive. (When you have a chance to look at the second coin, you will know why I said the first one looks better.)
I regret that I sold 6 of the first coin for around $85-90. It will bump up above $100 for sure. I will hold them back for a while at least till the 3rd coin release.
