Yes I to receive the email which is a not a surprise, as others have said, and there are some here on this thread that have some major skin in the game but if they’re not getting them a lot of other people that are hoping to flip aren’t either.

One person claimed to have received one. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

No wonder these flew out the door...they're now going for $499.99 (for the easily deluded) for PR70 (marked on the slab as Advanced Release...whatever that means?) on TV.
Crazy but still...
Yeah Rich, I saw that. It's like they are trying to create rarity where none exists. And Mike Sleazak is making a HUGE deal out of 2021 coins that were minted in 2020. SO WHAT? Can't wait till Jan. 1st to start minting for the current year. And he claimed that now there are 18 "Collector Coin Approved Purchasers" who receive new releases 2 days before the official release of which he is one. Again I say, SO WHAT?
I would like to see evidence for these approved purchasers. All the bulk buyers I know receive no special privileges. Maybe @nurmaler knows.
The 27,440 (over the initial 300k product limit) were proofs that were sold to bulk buyers via bulk 40 packs (no clamshells).
These advanced orders needed to be placed by 10/14/20 and from my understanding, were delivered already.
In response to other messages on this board, if you do have larger quantity orders and would like to lock in a price, plz message me.

Brief window this morning. over 40 available for a time.
I did buy 9 more cuz they were in my cart from yesterday.
Why didn't you buy the entire run of 327,440? You could name your selling price. Just think of all the profit you could have made!
Well, they had that annoying 99 HHL at the beginning for one...
For another, if I had $21 million laying around, I wouldn't be speculating on US Mint products. I'd be relaxing on the beach drinking Pina Colada's with a woman young enough to be my daughter.

Honestly, I don't care about how much money you are making on selling these. 🙄🤫
This forum is for who is buying them. All you are doing is potentially upsetting the collectors who feel flipping is a sin.👼
Maybe you should start a new thread for those who are selling these. That would make for some interesting reading😂🤣
I have NO problem with ANYONE selling to make a profit off of a hobby or business.
I always look forward to @jmlanzaf's post. Keep 'em coming and Congrats on your ability to make a profit...

Hmmm....I take it you are done flipping W quarters? I seem to recall more than a few posts extolling W quarters.
I mostly posted that I had sold them in case anyone wanted to privately contact me about how much and to whom.
This forum is for everyone. That includes dealers who are, by definition, flippers. It also includes collectors who are increasingly flippers. Let he who has never sold a coin cast the first stone.
I do not always agree with the practices of all posters but I personally have appreciated hearing about who is buying what, etc. This helped me figure out how to get one for myself at 7:30 AM one day this week.
I have never sold a coin...stone in hand...nah...professional coin dealers flip as is the very nature of their business. I despise the sbirds who give two s- - t about coins but fly in from their mommy’s basement on special issue

Longtime lurker, rarely post. But much appreciate all of jmlanzafs posts.
Sales for the U.S. Mint’s numismatic products offering containing the Proof 2021-W American Eagle silver dollar with the original reverse breached the 330,000-coin mark based on figures released to Coin World Feb. 19.
Two sales options offering the coin opened for public sale Feb. 11 and are listed as “currently unavailable.”
The single Proof 2021-W American Eagle silver dollar option, offered at $73 each without any household order restriction, was reported Feb. 19 to have sales totaling 293,444 coins. The sales catalog lists a maximum issue of 327,440 coins.
The Congratulations set, offered for $75, was listed with sales of 35,615 sets.
The total sales figure also includes 40-coin bulk discount packs sold to dealers, with the coins in plastic capsules. The sales total of 678 does not indicate whether the sales figure is a total number of coins in 40-coin packs or the number of packs sold.
“Currently unavailable” status suggests that the products are not available at this time, but the Mint could offer more coins when they become available.
Mint customers have been reporting releases of small numbers of coins after the initial Feb. 11 launch.
The coins tend to sell out quickly. Mint customers who click the “Remind Me” button on the product page may receive an alert from the Mint when these additional quantities become available.
Additional coins would come from customer-canceled orders or orders canceled by the Mint where credit cards expired.
The Mint plans to release a second American Eagle silver dollar mid-year bearing a new reverse design as part of anti-counterfeiting efforts.
The coins tend to sell out quickly. Mint customers who click the “Remind Me” button on the product page may receive an alert from the Mint when these additional quantities become available.
You would think Coin World would know that 95% of the time the coins become available at 7:30 a.m EST and that the Remind Me button reminds you at 9:00 EST when they are already gone.

Someday you might, if only to upgrade or redirect.
I'm actually astounded at the number of collectors who churn their collections. That can be a pretty expensive way to collect.
@JeffM said:
Since I don't sell my coins and don't need to beat out another seller, the Mint can take as long as they need to send my coins. I am in no hurry.
I'm still waiting for 2020 Mint sets ordered during the 1st week of January.

I wonder if it’s time to update the USPS motto:
“Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds“
Truthfully, I’m very understanding of the delays, but problems at usps have been building for years.
Yeah I got it too. If jmlanzaf gets one he gonna be like Noooooo!!!🤣😂

LOL. I got THREE OF THEM on my different accounts.
I'd be happy if they shipped in the next week. I actually turned down a $13 per coin profit to pre-sell all 300 units. I'm still a believer.
And you know me, rather than sell 300 to one person for a $4000 profit, I'd rather sell 300 to 300 different people for a $3000 profit. LMFAO
One person claimed to have received one. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Do you already have them up for sale on Ebay, or did someone from the forum offer to purchase?
I never presell on eBay. Too many ways it can go wrong. I talked to someone interested. There are people out there buying them.
Take the deal! Bird in the hand, no work, and no risk of dropping demand by the time you get them.
The 27,440 (over the initial 300k product limit) were proofs that were sold to bulk buyers via bulk 40 packs (no clamshells).

Yep I received the email. Long time enrollment customer and never a problem until now. They’re sitting in processing purgatory since 2/11.
I received the email as well. Still patiently waiting
That's interesting. Thanks!
Brief window this morning. over 40 available for a time.
I did buy 9 more cuz they were in my cart from yesterday.
Picked up 10 more today.
I got one today. This is my first one. Didn’t bother trying the day of release because I didn’t expect it to be a hot item.
Available for a minute this morning. Picked up 5 more today. Since I don't flip coins, these are all Christmas gifts.
Yeah....in your cart from yesterday...that's why you bought them😉🤑🤑🤑
Why didn't you buy the entire run of 327,440? You could name your selling price. Just think of all the profit you could have made!
They were. Otherwise I might have put more (or less) in the cart.
Since I've spent a total of $0 on them so far, there's little point in stopping. LOL
Well, they had that annoying 99 HHL at the beginning for one...
For another, if I had $21 million laying around, I wouldn't be speculating on US Mint products. I'd be relaxing on the beach drinking Pina Colada's with a woman young enough to be my daughter.
Wait....What?🤔
cards aren't charged until shipment goes out
No email for me...

I've got good news and I've got bad news.
The bad news: I'm down to 23 sets on order!
The good news: I sold 297 sets. [PM if you want info.]
Now I guess I have room to buy more! LOL
"Oh the humanity!"
So far...I've bought 2 and I'm happy...and I hope to match them to (at least) 2 of the Type 2's later this year.
And now back to our normal programming.
well, I've "bought" 2 as well - whether or not I'll receive 2 remains to be seen, but similar plan, make a couple sets of t1s and t2s 🤞
Same here. I'm keeping 2 for my collection. I have been buying extras to give out as gifts.
But he still has to PAY for them. Maybe he needs some lessons on impulse buying 🤣😂

yeah, it's good news
the delays by usps were a "covid christmas"
the delays due snow in memphis is the "winter wait" a lot of us are going to be stuck with delays. that's just how it's going to happen.
