That was a pretty short window of opportunity. Hope some were able to snag it!

they probably held a few back because the email wasn't sent out as the "buy now" coincided with the email release.

I also received my "Advance notice" email about two hours ago. I'm quite impressed that the RCM is so timely with their notifications. I have to say a big thank you to everyone online who notified us of when the coins were put online.

Were people not able to order on smartphones today? I know it might not be the ideal situation but I was able to get in during a short break through the phone and place an order.

Useless email notice was a little late or I would have ordered the ugly five oz queen. I should have found this forum a long time ago. Ordered 3 canopies and two masks and why am I getting taxed 5%? Everything is popping up on ebay. Buy it now canopy for $350 - ya right.

@yellowperch - If you live in Quebec they charge tax now for some reason I heard. I would like to see which coins will sell out before public release. I could think of the canopy, mask and of course butterfly.

For those that wanted the Butterfly and some have suggested ebay - what about the coin dealers? Wouldn't they be selling at around issue price? Since I don't know how the bee went over last time maybe I'm wrong. I'd hope they would pop up at CA or GW..

Quote: I'd hope they would pop up at CA or GW.. GW will put phone-only in the middle of the night and will rise prices when office opens CA will put 2 coins at issue, next 2 at issue+25, next 2 at issue+25+25, etc. J&M will have it at cost, their system will allow 1000 sales and 994 of them will be cancelled next day
