wif99 Valued Member United States 377 Posts	Posted 03/24/2009 10:19 pm What is up with the US Mint? Never in my 63 years have I seen such absolute lack of feeling for a customer base. They sell items that they don't have, and even when they do have them, you still wait for 2 to 3 weeks for shipment. If any other business was this slow at shipping they would be out of business. O Ya I forgot they are a monopoly and don't care. If you don't like the way they do things so what. Thanks for letting me vent. Billy Report this Post to the Staff

Spider5689 Pillar of the Community United States 2269 Posts	Posted 03/24/2009 10:29 pm I know the felling. I placed an order over a month ago. It's finally getting shipped today. I have less faith in the mint fulfilling my orders in a appropriate amount of time. Report this Post to the Staff
tnwalker10 Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 03/24/2009 10:30 pm I understand, I ordered the Lincoln commemorative proof and mint coins on 3/04 and they still haven't shipped. I ordered the high-relief gold coin on 3/16 and it came today (3/24). I thought it would be the other way around. Report this Post to the Staff

I bet they get way less returns on coins since theyve figured that out.theres a reason for the wait. Report this Post to the Staff
