Took 2 hours 28 minutes, trying both online and by phone, never got to the shop online screen on the website, but using three phones at once I finally got through. Five sets ordered. Sigh of relief.

Well based on my order number, assuming most all orders today are for this set and averaging three sets per order it seems about 30-35 thousand sets have been sold today

Sigh, what a crock. Almost 5 hours of sitting on their website and the closest I got was having the website time out while waiting for an order confirmation. That was about 15 minutes ago.
I need to take my mind off of this before I start to get upset. I can't believe I am saying this, but does anyone want to sell me one of their extra sets for $400 plus shipping?
Please send me an email if you have a set you are willing to sell.

Well if they are already instituting a wait list, these went quickly today. The only criticism I have is they should have upped the mintage if the 'order limit' was 5 per account. Most orders are probably maxed out at 5, and some people who wanted just one set are probably going to have resort to the secondary market. Should have been one per order like the first five uncirculated pucks.

this "wait list" situation came about curiously close to 5pm. Might they just be closing down sales for the day because the employees are going home? Group of five sets just closed on ebay $2275 100,000 sets, 5 hours = 5.55 sets sold PER SECOND... impressive Edited by unholyroller
