I'm in the same boat. I saw the credit card charge and my order is still processing but considering my number is 8000 later than some of you I'll be one of the last ones. But I'm not selling nor slabbing just going to drool (hopefully not on the coin) , so what does a few days difference make.

Mine is on the way. It's expected Saturday, but will likely be here around Wednesday.
Then it's a debate over when I stick it in an air tite.

My order wasn't placed until the following day so will prolly be a while before I get shipment confirmation and then actually receive it. So long as those first two steps happen then I'm good. More than likely won't be submitting mine.

Quote: Just tried checking the US Mint site again at 7:30 ET, looks like it's all over... Just checked on the US mint site and it says We are currently out of this item, but more may be available later. Provide your email using the "REMIND ME" button and we will let you know when we are taking orders again.Not sold out, so there maybe a few out there.

Not sold out, so there maybe a few out there. Yup, still a possibility. Though with only 30k minted the qty and number of days it becomes available will probably be far less than other mint products that have sold out in the past. I was surprised it lasted as long as it did on Friday. If it does pop up again it will probably go as quickly as it did on Saturday.

For the ones who didn't get one, and there are many, I would urge you to FLOOD their call center @ 1-800-872-6468, and voice your opinion. This isn't the first time we COLLECTORS just want to acquire ONE for our collection, only to be HIGHLY disappointed. Tell them to start up the coin press and mint enough to satisfy demand. I for one have have enough with the United States Mint!

They're still working through orders right now and canceling from credit cards double orders etc. Someone would have to be borderline crazy to return one of these which is usually the big feeder of the extra sales

I was trying to be nice  Really you should have to be evaluated if you return something you can sell for several hundred more if you don't want it. Quote:

They do especially on popular products that sold out, thats why you see them pop up again weeks later sometimes. They also blow out inventory at a big discount to the big big boys instead of paying to destroy it. What they claim is that they never resell returned products. Many people believe that isn't actually the case though myself included based off of experiences with some returns for replacement.

Even your coin is not perfect or damaged and you want to return, you might only get money refunded for this coin. I don't think that the mint will keep enough spares for returns. ^^

For those that ordered on Thursday I think your order will go through unless there is a problem with your card or something. Reason being is they sold more on friday, sat, sun which should mean they supplis they had met the Thursdays orders. Even open for less than a minute on Sunday should mean that Saturday was fine also.
I don't know the criteria for their "1 per household limit" but I have to imagine some people did this wrong and tied up stock that is getting caught and released to new buyers and they won't be getting the multiples they ordered.
If you didn't get one I'd still be checking at 7:30AM daily until they mark it sold out or it stops opening up each day... and be prepared to move quick.
