Well here it is! - (had to lie, cheat and pull teeth to get it but I got it)  Quote:So where do I store it? with my OGP ASE collection? My Navy, Army, Air Force, Coast Guard Military medals? or with my Proof ASE coins? OGP ASEs belong with OGP ASEs.  |

It is one thing to get a second one via friends or family. It is a whole other thing soliciting groups of people the obtain way more than a fair share, just to resell them at a huge premium.  |

I asked my neighbor to order one for me. It isn't the first time (I think just the second) that he helped me out. We both do each other favors. He ordered for me so I could have 2. Do I feel I cheated the system? No, not really. My conscience is clear.

Or you have multiple properties to send it to, with multiple credit cards, and multiple friends/family to put on. Not ideal but I have had to do that a few times for ASE/2021 Morgans. The army one took awhile and honestly should have the rest of the ASE limits raised to 2 or 3. |

This is what I feel happens when people get orders rejected. Name, obviously different, but even then they have to know some names are very common. Address. One PER HOUSEHOLD LIMIT is exactly that. Unknown how they watch for apartment addresses. So you can't (or shouldn't) be able to say, I'm have my wife or kid order one. HOUSEHOLD ORDER LIMIT. Payment. I had this with my neighbor. I told him I'll pay him cash. He says "can't I use my card"? No no, they will catch that, has to be a different card and I may be wrong, but I think even if you use (your own) different card, they will catch that. Different card number, but they will catch the name and address has an order placed. So it has to be a totally different person, address, and person paying for it, not just a different card. They aren't quite as dumb as we'd like to think. |

Received My 2025 250TH Anniversary- U S Army- Proof American Silver Eagle I am Not pleased. The Symbol chosen is Tiny and Hard to see and Read. The ASE's are Sweet as they Always are, Why so Small a symbol, Very difficult to Enjoy reading The "privy " mark, Maybe my aging eyes, Why do We as collector's accept This, Once blown up or seen under magnification, It's a Nice symbol, Just cheapened in Some Way.......... Throw a symbol on an established series and charge MORE for it, Sad....  More of this to come Too....... I was charged shipping $ 5.95 too, Another " symbol " the U S Disappointmints are Clearly Chaotic at Best.. Edited by Morgans Dad

They don't automatically associate you with the free shipping. The trick is to be logged into your account when you order. To go back through my experience with ordering this ASE. I got in to the waiting room maybe 5 minutes before drop time. I probably should have gotten on the computer 1/2 hour before, then made sure I was back at the computer by drop time. At any rate, I was able to order, about 25m after 11 (central time). I got one in my cart, was going though checkout, realized I had a shipping charge, then what I thought was a gutsy move, decided to log in to my account. Before this I never thought about doing that first. It looked like I was kicked out of ordering, but I logged in anyways, and the coin was still showing in my basket. Whew! So then I just went through the checkout, like I had been, and the shipping charge was gone. Edited by Gilly
