@arianzo That was a LONG wait time, wow. I just received mine last week. And I'm sure there are others out there still waiting...Oh, RCM... I have heard a lot of negative things about the water and clouds but, like you, I love the way it looks. It really does look like the water is rippling just as a lake/river would. It reminds me of the water on the Guardian of the Gorge - Gof7 coin #5. I almost quit buying that series when I saw the Guardian coin and how poor it was presented, but I did - and still do - love the look of the water on that coin. Autumn Bliss has exactly the same effect, except this time the rest of the coin is stunning as well. This is the last coin that I've bought myself this year just for financial reasons, but I absolutely love it (not including the O Canada subscription). It's a good way to go out of 2013. Can't wait to see what the new year brings. |

I just received my 3 Autumn Bliss yesterday around 2pm...... They are nice looking coins......
The package came at a bit of surprise for me since I didn't really expect they are coming.... I was actually waiting for other coins...

Did anybody know if CP were still getting them in. A few have indicated they were ordered, they were confirmed, but they haden't gotten them yet!

@ coinzchange CP called me and told me straight up that this coin was sold out from the get-go. Even though I ordered via phone within the first few minutes on release day, and was reassured from time to time that I would absolutely be getting my coin, I was recently called by CP and told that this coin was sold out and was never really available because not enough were ordered.  Tired of being dragged through the mud by CP. Cancelled my order and closed my account with them on the spot!  Good luck! You will need it and a lot of patience!  |

@allspice, thanks for info. I can't see why they would say, that not enough were ordered! It seems practicly everyone wanted that issue!

@ coinzchange, yeah that is a popular coin and CP didn't handle it very well. Even if they did oversell the item, they shouldn't lead customers on in believing that they will receive the coin and after weeks and weeks of hoping, just to get slammed down hard with a big "NO."  Too wishy-washy for my taste. I'm no longer interested in the months/years of runarounds they have shelled out.  But you might have better luck with them than I did!  |

I have decided to let go 1 of my Autumn Bliss coin. Anyone interested, let me know and I will list it up on the B/S/T section.
Note: I don't know the shipping cost to Canada, so if someone volunteer their zipcode and city so I can do an estimate, that would be good.

Well folks, I called the Philatelic Centre of Canada Post today to see what was happening with my order of early September for one coin. Surprise, surprise they don't have any more "Autumn Bliss" coins. So despite assurances that I would definitely be getting one, I won't be. However, since the mint came through with one for me in late October, I'm not sorry. I don't need to have two. In fact, I can use the $100 for something else.  |

But they at least apologized with you. Any excuse for no saying NOTHING in 3 months? A 30% discount to be used in your next purchase?

Uh! Actually arianzo they didn't apologize. I had to call them to find out the status of my order. No "We're sorry", just no more Bliss. No discount either...  Edited by NuMoosematist

So I guess this particular thread is coming to an end, once everyone have their share of the Bliss..... ?

Well SA4H, we still don't know why the coins sold out so fast. This thread will stay alive until the truth is known. Even if it becomes a cold case, collector detectives will not rest in their undying effort to find out... |
