Oh. I misunderstood. I was thinking that he meant that you should set a reminder on your phone. When it comes to high demand items, the only thing that the "Remind Me" button does is remind me that I just missed out.

Yeah, once I get a firm date, I add it to my calendar so I am notified on laptop and phone. One cannot have too many reminders.

I have 0 trust in those remind me buttons. As people have said, set your computer/phone alarms. To be fair, since I'm on the mailing list, I usually get a blast email from them a day or 2 before release which reminds me to set my calendar on my phone.

I'm like Dearborn! I set a calendar entry the day the item I want is for sale. I usually do 11:50 to 1:00 , so if I'm at work I won't get a meeting at the time.

Just checked the poll, majority are in the 75k to 100k range. If that's the total, this will be a 45-60 minutes sell out :(

I'll be ready. One of the benefits of working from home is being able to attend to things like this without having to excuse yourself from a conference room.
And @hfj, I would normally agree based on the 75k-100k estimate, but I feel that this 2-coin set is going to be highly sought after... and I'm guessing the web site is the usual total disaster and we have a 20-30 minute sellout.

Although for me it was just as easy before, just put something weird on the shared calendar that showed me not available during that time.

Glad to see we get a small break after the Morgan and Peace dollars hit our wallets.

I originally thought this set would consist of one each, type I and type II ASE, however, I now believe they'll both be type II with one S and one W mint marks. Mintage maybe between 75-100k with a $199 price point.
