It wouldn't be the mint if they didn't hide the release date of their products. :) I'm looking forward to the Everglades puck, that one looks to be a winning design. Should look good on a puck.

The subscriptions are automatically processed and as such the order summary emails aren't generated. I got one once on the 1st subscription of the year and never again after that. The emails on the subscriptions you do get are the four weeks heads up and shipping notifications.

So if I haven't received an email notification, my puck hasn't shipped? My tracking information indicates that shipping was expected on 9/13/14, but it hasn't been updated since 9/11/14.

I'm not sure what to expect because I just subscribed(because . . . you know . . . they're shiny and hard to resist). Can I assumed it was shipped on the 13th, or not until I receive a shipment notification email? Thanks.

Ok..5 charged to my card....1 stays raw, in OGP, to make a full 2014 raw set, the other 4 will go to PCGS...
As a side note, so-called first strike coins are the last in the pile to be shipped out...hopefully, my order will be from the REAR of the pallets!

You guys with puck subs see this?


Quote:
Eligible subscription products shipped before September 27, 2014 will receive the discount; eligible subscription products shipped subsequent to the launch of the new website will be charged at regular price.
Effective October 1, 2014, the 10% discount applied to the current Subscription Program will no longer be offered.
Important note: With the new system, the Subscription Program will be referred to as the Enrollment Program, which can be accessed under the Enrollment section on the new website.


If I read it correctly, the 10% discount for certain subs is coming to an end. There's only one 2014 release remaining that was "eligible" for the discount, the Everglades puck in November. For now I'll keep the subscriptions intact, will decide to cancel or keep for 2015 depending on what happens in Nov. with Everglades order.

No discount means the subs will be superfluous and pointless to have, unless the Mint creates a new shipping category that brings back the free shipping. Since the fulfillment is relocating back to Tennessee (FedEx land) free shipping might yet make a return. The discount was nice while it lasted. Didn't really think it would carry over in '15 though.

So do you think the subscription for these 5 oz. will be for Everglades or not? I don't know what to think A Good Thing while it lasted! I'm surprised with silver so low as well. Unless there is a thought to lower the actual asking price. Silver has been below $20 for quite some time.

And on the regular description of the subscription page, there is no mention that there is no longer going to be a discount after any shipment after Oct 1. I hope the current coin ships prior since, to me it seems the last coin may not be discounted.

I checked my subs and the great Sand Dunes is "in stock and reserved" but for each sub it also adds subscription "line item cancelled"

So this is the last of the discounts....

I just updated my card by talking to a CSR at the Mint's call center. She confirmed what we all suspect, the discounting will come to an end with the migration over to PFSWeb as of October 1st and the Everglades release will be $154.95 subscribed or not. I ordered way more of the discounted products than I ordinarily would've ordered in any prior year. Oh well. I'll "de-enroll" next month when I can actually see what's being subscribed. Hopefully there will be a glitch and ALL of my subscriptions don't make it over to the new platform...

Would the mint abruptly stop selling the last puck to get ready for the 2015 catalog? I'm thinking about the late release in the year and maybe demand will be down without a discount and people focusing on the Kennedy silver set.

My subscription says the same thing. What does this mean? Do I need to do anything other than sit tight and wait for for the Mint to ship? I'm new to this game. I haven't subscribed to anything since the first year and a half of the 2 roll uncirculated ATB program. Considering my current elevated confusion level, I'm wondering if I made a mistake or if I'm being an intolerable worry wart.
