Congrats on the box, Pixu! Finally boxes reached the Europe from RCM, hope that they also will be distributed in Canada.

I noticed there are 4-5 pending charges on my cc. I hope I will receive the rest of the set soon.

My box with Niagara Falls (7-th coin) arrived on Sunday. No issues with the quality.
didn't know even that CP delivers mail on Sundays....
So, probably this is the last batch that released, hope that everyone will get their very soon.

From all the previous post about this set and not hearing anything really negative. I decided to cave and purchase the set. Hope I will not be disappointed.

The set itself is good and solid. Some scenery coins are "weak" - Niagara Falls, for example. The "animal" coins are nicely crafted. So all together it good.
I do not see the reason to buy the 2014 set (enough of one "O Canada"), but will buy singles from there to fill an extra wooden box that I have.

I received the box and the 10th coin yesterday. I am two coins short of the completed set..... It's quite nice, AND a long wait for the box.

My box finally shipped today:) I am uber-excited. I hope it arrives in good condition and doesn't have any serious defects, so I have a nice place to display my coins. Any other poor souls still waiting for their's? Hopefully, they are shipping the last few out.

I just received the colored maple yesterday. A single coin in a medium size box by FedEX. The box was quite beaten up though, probably got stuck/crush by other packages in the truck. The coin still in-tack though.
One more coin for the set to be completed. Good luck with everyone else.

I finally received my box. Unfortunately, it has two roughly two inch long scratches on the lid (at about 7:00 PM). These are not deep gouges, but you notice them if you look at the lid. I'm really torn over whether to try to return it for exchange:( Some considerations: 1) I don't know if RCM has any extra boxes; 2)the box is somewhat heavy and would cost a not insignificant amount to ship back (I live in USA) that I will likely not be able to recoup (I have attempted to receive return shipping reimbursement from RCM three previous times for exchanged defective coins (sent letters with my info and copies of my post office receipts, but RCM never even acknowledged receipt of any of them:( 3) I don't know if the replacement would be any better Sadly, I am satisfied with every other aspect of the box: it is well-constructed, with precisely-built corners/joints and hinged lid that opens and closes perfectly. The wood even smells great. (LOL). And my coins look great on display in the box. Am I just being too picky? Nothing in this world is perfect: should I expect coins and their display boxes to be any different? Any thoughts on what I should do?
