    [Sorry 7:34 they went up for sale]

    So then...you're saying that they went up randomly at 10:34 Eastern time?

    Which one(s) went up at 734 EST?

    Yes I was reading this conversation this morning and decided to stay on the mint website under wish list with the coins on it. I kept refreshing until it said available I couldn’t believe my eyes

    Which coin?

    All 4 end of world war coins

    I find that a little hard to believe without proof, honestly. Congrats if true though.

    Do you guys think I could get more selling all 4 as a set?

    Go on the BST forum. See what feedback you would get. Create a thread that you have a set confirmed. You will get responses probably from dealers as well as individual buyers. Good Luck. It is usually custom to get paid first by a collector but it looks like you are a new member so that will be difficult. Dealers expect you to ship first than you will get paid.

    Congrats!!! persistence pays off! I tried the silver for about 10 minutes this morning and I never saw it available. Must have been a quick one...or two...

    I didn’t see the 20XE so well done...

    How long were they up?

  • Mindy9773Mindy9773 Posts: 160 ✭✭✭

    As soon as I bought mine they were gone

  • Mindy9773Mindy9773 Posts: 160 ✭✭✭

    I bet they will be up again sometime tomorrow

  • RaufusRaufus Posts: 6,816 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Thanks for the info. Unbelievable lucky break 4 u.

  • RaufusRaufus Posts: 6,816 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Just curious, What made you think to keep refreshing at a time when no one was expecting them to be up?

  • pf70collectorpf70collector Posts: 6,655 ✭✭✭

    Two members posted they were for sale today. Seems like the impossible is still possible. What incredible luck. Congrats!

  • MilesWaitsMilesWaits Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭✭✭

    In answer to your question Raufus it was just a gut feeling that if they didn’t go on sale the typical time there at some point today it would happen.

    Good instinct. That said, impossible to check constantly all day. Incredible.

    The incredible thing is that was 3 hours later than expected. Its
    Its amazing.

    For the life of me I can't score the gold - and I'm not looking to sell. Just want one for the collection.

    And to think two people found them over 3 hrs later than expected. Just amazing.

    How were you guys all on the minute they came up over 3 hrs after 0730 EST? That's whats amazing. It not like anyone can check every minute of the day.

    Wow congrats on the ones who got them today. Hopefully I’ll be as lucky and snatch a gold one.

    Everyone is working from home now spending all day in front of the screen. Checking at the top of every half hour did cross my mind lol.

    I was locked out "1015" deal earlier in the AM; went off to focus on the stock market etc., then "randomly" while not even logged in, I just refeshed the 20xf page on my iPad and saw the red button...then logged in, etc.. My timing was just stupid lucky--I have no inside info or anything. I guess I was a minute or two late for the GOLD!

  • RaufusRaufus Posts: 6,816 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Incredible. I can't work from home. I'm at work most days by 0730. Missing yesterday just bummed me out so bad. Then, to think I could have snagged one today at 10:34. Ugh!!!!!

    Not a good idea to post your full order number here. To be safe.

    Yes there is a little gear in the top right corner of the post next to the date. Click on that to edit. But you will have to ask the 2 member that quoted you to do so also.

    Go to the edit button that gear in top right hand corner. Just delete the code which is your photo. I believe this will do it.
    Sorry been away. I deleted your photo.

    I've never ever have been able to secure a Mint offering after it goes to unavailable, this is going back to the 2006 ASE set of 3, despite all the refreshing at 0730.

    Last year I tried for many weeks to pick up the silver eagle and that is 0330 for my time zone. Never did get one. Tweaked my game a little for this round.
