I agree with SDCrow, they have officially turned me off.
I also ordered mine around the time you did and have heard nothing about the progress of my order.

72 hours after emailing their "Quickest Response Method - we will respond within 24 hours" link, I received a message this morning apologizing for the delay and was told my order would ship today. They said I would be emailed notifying me of the shipment including tracking information. I still haven't heard anything and my order still says 'Processing,' as it has for the last week or so. It is getting comical at this point. Thankfully I ordered less than 10 ounces. I'll be selling them off as soon as I get them in hand and will be done with them. Don't want to rain on the parade, just want anyone looking to order from them to be forewarned. If you're interested in getting these, it looks like you'd be better off getting them from an online retailer such as Silver Gold Bull in Canada or Provident Metals in the U.S.

SDCrow,
Bullion bourse in Australia has the coins for a while now and would have shipped them to you already by now. But you can't really blame them for shipping big amounts to retailers first. Eventually they'll grow and adjust to the demand. I received a few proofs from SGBull and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with the finish. It ain't no silver Eagle proof. The background mirror finish has specks and they're all the same...

I have no problem with them filling orders with retailers first. I'm sure they had their order long before I did. My only problem, and it's a deal breaker, is that I was told I would have them weeks ago, and they didn't have the courtesy to let me know of the delay. The only contact I received from them were advertisements to place additional orders. They've handled this situation poorly, and it's not as if this is an isolated incident. I checked out the kitco board as swrbxxx suggested, and there are a lot of unhappy consumers there as well.

The two "hottest" new bullion items are the SBSS rounds and the NWT Mint Silver Bullet bullion. Both organizations are choking to death on their own paperwork, overloaded with orders that they're unable to fill for unacceptable periods of time, backlogged from here to Hades and back and they're both severely aggravating the buying public.
It's a shame to see two great ideas going to pot because of managerial ineptitude. Here's hoping they can clean their messes up, get current with their back orders and stop aggravating people before their reputations get trashed and their products die on the vine.

I could have gotten in on SBSS bullion from the beginning, but although I thought they were reasonably priced, skull based designs don't appeal to me at all. I would much rather see more designs for the .99999 rounds coming from Royal Silver Company, but they also have a lot of unhappy customers fed up with delayed shipments. Anyway, I do hope all of you who are excited about the SBSS bullion are able to get your hands on them without too much trouble...

Anyone know the mintage total of the first two design (breaking down to BU & Proof)?

Thanks for the heads up, from the 24 pages of replies it looks like it maybe a while before I receive my silver. I think its cool you can send them your junk .999 or 100 oz bricks and they will turn it into some of their rounds at a fee of course still cool though IMO. I really hope they can figure out how to run a company because I do like their products.

I just received the email respond to my inquiry (w/in 30 mins of me send in the question): Quote: Taylor <service@coinsforthecause.com> 2:15 PM (2 minutes ago)
We have a current shipping time frame for all orders of 14-21 days after payment has been received and cleared. We are receiving silver shipments more regularly and implementing better machines to be more efficient.
As for shipping, we charge a flat rate of 7.95 for all orders.
Thank you for your support. Please let me know if you have anymore questions.
I don't know how true is the 14-21 days statement but we'll see.

I called them thursday was only able to leave a message, but no return phone call or email. Once I get the 41 ounces they owe me I'm done with them.

Silver Bullet Silver shield is setting a precedent much like Norfed tried to do but was squashed by the treasury department. The need for a silver standard as suggested by Chris Duane's Video in front of a congressional sub-committee co sponsored by libertarian Ron Paul is available online. An honest redress of what really happened along the way in formation of our leading global economic interests. Coins for the cause. Slave Queen is brutal but true. Peace Girl is beautiful and Nostalgic.
