This is very surprising because I've asked them if I put in an order (for anything), is there any chance that it could get cancelled. Answer is NO.

That's what they told me when I phoned up in March and in April to check on my orders. "Oh, don't worry...."

@kuh_85: I would definitely give the RCM a call on Monday. An "active" voicing of your displeasure may have a better chance of turning things around vs. a "passive" email. Good luck!

"Rest assured" Yeah right! Just checked JandM, it seems they still have some at Mint issue price.

It's a shame.
On the side, does it affect your member status, the bar showing how much you have spent in the past 12 months?

Well, I just received the following response to my email. ... The issue occurred during the transfer of the order information through our systems. ... I've sent a reply asking if they've fixed the system problem then. @Amaths: Yeah, no problem with the spend total. I try to buy everything face value $30 and under. I'm a little OCD that way.  @Mrpiedfort & @Silverbug: Thanks for the info!

The wolf is available in some canada post outlets; ie shopper drugs mart on no5 / cambie in rmd; they have some in the vancouver mint boutique. I doubt the pink one is sold out. Should be available in the postal outlets and the mint boutique when it is released.

The Vancouver mint boutique is sold out of the wolf.. I apparently bought the last one yesterday. I'm happy I got it, of course others may not be...
The only coin they had left in the series was one of the 2011s.
