spaceace Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 03/27/2014 12:39 pm I went to the US mint website today and it said there was a "line" to wait before you could shop at their site. It estimated my wait was 2 hours and 48 minutes. I assume that was done so the site wouldn't crash with boatloads of people on it at the same time, but I was curuous why is it so busy today? The Baseball Hall of Fame coins come out today, but would it really be that much of a rush to get them? Is there something out that comes out today that is really in demand?

basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 03/27/2014 3:25 pm Its all the baseballs and the fact the government apparently cant design websites to handle more than 100 people. Maybe they should ask Amazon or ebay for some help handling volume. Report this Post to the Staff
