It’s sad when you buy something, your credit card is charged, you get an order acknowledgment and confirmation, and yet you can’t trust getting what you bought until you get a shipping notice.
WOW a $500 profit for the Gold how generous. This whole thing just sucks. I think that the Mint is doing an exceptional job driving their base out of the hobby.
Every time there is a rare coin sold by the mint people claim they are done. Yet they keep coming back for every hot release.
BTW, i whiffed on the gold. i'll be back for next hot release just like everyone else on here. Let's stop being dramatic.
All that got their shipping notice already did you have fast shipping or economy?

I received a gold on initial launch. Was ecstatic, however yesterday got email that was cancelled due to item no longer being available. Imagine my frustration discovering that they're restocking gold even though cancelling mine from being out of stock. Makes no sense and customer support is of no help lol
Just adds to this being the WORST LAUNCE EVER. SUCH a disaster. Sorry dude. Can't imagine. I know that I'm profoundly bummed that as a collector w/zero interest in flipping I'll be shut out where there are pages of listings on ebay from flippers.
That is awesome. Mine is still processing so still sweating it out

One specific question please for the lucky dogs who've been able to purchase a coin loaded in their cart the prior day.
How, specifically, do you snag it? Do you refresh until you see it's in stock then go to check out OR do you reset and hover over the cart until (and if?) the out of stock text in the below photo goes away?
In some prior issues an item in the cart that went out of stock was an invalid item that could never be purchased. This has changed obviously this time.

Did you get the order confirmation email? If so you should be good. Can’t imagine how they’re doing it to ship out 70k+ individual packages, especially during COVID.

Yeah you’re good though I understand your anxiety. Felt the same last year when I was able to snag an ERP on the second day. I had to wait about 5 weeks to actually see it as I sent it out for grading as soon as I got it.
I was hoping to snag the gold piece this year so I changed the shipping to Next Day prior to ordering which is why it’s arriving on Monday.
Have there actually been graded PF 70’s already. I think that will really drive up prices if the pf 70’s are not as prevalent as they were with the ERP

please block out the last 4 numbers of your order so I can compare mine
mine is USM0846XXXX
trying to figure who was the first and who maybe the last
This was the first time that I was able to get a limited coin from the mint
I will start a new shipping thread on this subject
A lot depends on the grades and numbers of 70’s etc. the Gold will remain stupid high

Same dance this morning. I had a silver in cart. Became available. Clicked pay. "Processing" then came back with "page unavailable". When I tried to check out a second time. BANNED!
Check your " Order History" in your account page. The same thing happened to me and now it appears that the order was placed.
Nope.
It's done the same thing every day. Doesn't go through.

I think I was the first to post on here getting an order number actual confirmation not just an order placed email. USM08103XXX @ 14:15 ET. My email doesn't go back far enough to see the order placed email. My memory is the order was placed about 12:15 ET to 12:20 ET.
My order went through around 12:25 ET after spending 25 minutes “playing “ with their website. I was just about to give up and just buy the coin from a vendor when it finally went through.

according to my calculation that means 36k have been sold
thanks for your update
Or 36,000 orders. In my contemplation to buy the gold I considered splitting orders for gold and silver to separate orders. The ciaos at noon ET sent me to silver only which was hair raising enough for me.

I've never heard of that happening. Has someone had a legitimate, confirmed order (within all mint policies) cancelled after their credit card is charged?

I received the first "order received" email at 11:31, which means my order went through a couple minutes before so I was pleasantly surprised when I received the shipping email Friday evening.

What's the guess on the average price raw and 70 for the gold on feebay in one year?? Think they'll come down at all?
Dealer friend says $20,000+ for the 1st 70's 75th golds ...that sells ...reason dealers buying what they can... no risk big gain with 70
2 years from now ...price will be lower for the silver ..flat/lower for the gold
Tried this morning...the silver was available briefly but then I was "rate limited" and couldn't get the order processed. US Mint is ridiculous. Anyone trying is wasting their time...was only available for less than a minute today.

I had cart up refreshing on phone and never had gold show as available.
I had the gold show as available a few seconds after 7:30 and I got to place order and it said my order was being processed, then I got sent back to the shopping cart page and shows the gold as not available but in my cart. At least I never got banned today.
They put the rate limiting on the log in page only today. A better solution to be sure but still problematic as I now can't log into my account at all.

Next time I won't wait for it to show available, just gonna submit order sometime in the few seconds after 0730. Maybe that'll work.
Guessing there won't be many more chances on these, if any.

You cant submit order without going to final review and it won't let you go to final review with an invalid item.

I got the confirmation Thursday evening and the shipping notice around noon today (for silver). I get free economy shipping.
Got shipment notice today (sat). Economy. Silver
what I think is so strange is that the PF70 are fetching in excess of 1200 while the raw are only 500
Have there actually been graded PF 70’s already. I think that will really drive up prices if the pf 70’s are not as prevalent as they were with the ERP

silver was there for a second, no gold
15 seconds this morning never on Sunday before. They are truly #ucking with us. Never even got it in the cart.
Gold there for a second. Was SO close w PayPal this am. Sold out by 0731 at final conf. Anyone get one?
Tried this morning...the silver was available briefly but then I was "rate limited" and couldn't get the order processed. US Mint is ridiculous. Anyone trying is wasting their time...was only available for less than a minute today.
Was flying thru PP. Then asked address. Too late. Has anyone been able to check out w PP not having to confirm any address?
I had cart up refreshing on phone and never had gold show as available.
I saw gold available for a split second. Tried but no dice.
