I was able to add 99 to my cart.
I wonder if they're getting a lot of returns. I'm sure it's been discussed before but I don't remember the answer -- will the mint turn around and re-sell returns?

They say they don't, but many people (myself included) believe they do especially on things like this. I seriously doubt Canada is sending them small batches of replacements every time someone returns one for quality issues, it's far more likely they're just getting a set someone else returned

The August 11th sales report shows sales at 95,002 down 3.370 from the previous week. Don't quite see how these returns are occurring as they must be past the Mint's 7 day return window. Maybe the return policy is different for bulk buyers

Maybe a delay in reporting between the return request and receipt of return and all that jazz? By the way, you can still buy them right now.
Also could have been charges that didn't go through, expired cards, CC accounts on hold, insufficient funds ect. or un-deliverable packages that got refunded.
Maybe they carried the "accidental double orders" on the inventory count and corrected it, could be that also.

So some could be ones that kept exchanging them and just finally said enough already just give me a refund, but there likely is a processing delay for reporting as well as any number of things

Wasn't HSN Mike offering a 30 day inspection period on this set? Maybe a bunch of HSN customers returned them to Mike, who then sent them back to the Mint?

Just found out about this set 3 days ago while randomly looking @ the US mints website....was next to no publicity up here in Canada about it...couldn't take it and signed up and ordered it from the US mints website,along with the 2019 proof silver set that has the reverse proof "w" penny....These will be my first proof US coins to my collection and I'm more than excited.The reverse proof American silver eagle slightly edges the maple lMO,however both are unique horses to put in my stable...cheers from Canada,Eh.

I found out last night this came back on sale. I have ordered one even though I've never purchased either the United States or Canadian one ounce silver coins before. The sales figures on this set were 95,002 as of last Sunday, with a maximum of 100,000 in the United States, so they are 95% of the way to being sold out. Of course, they could drop in value, but I have one for me.
