Free Shipping??
Was that only for separate orders? I didn't focus on the shipping...I was just spending time trying to check out on multiple computers.

...The one thing that was annoying was on the checkout page. I selected my credit card from the dropdown list, but it didn't fill in the CC info. I was about to key in the number, but tried again, and this time it populated.
Yep, I noted the same thing. Once you selected your credit card number - the website would take about 10 seconds or so to populate the actual numbers and allow you to put in your code. Was very annoying...
There are so many ways for a purchase to fail in the buying process; it's just incredibly poorly thought out. Selecting an on-file credit card requires a postback to the overloaded web server. You then have to enter the idiotic credit card verification code (which I remembered wrong about four or five times ). Then there is an order verification which requires a postback. Finally, you have to check the confirmation checkbox before clicking the Place Order button. If there's any sort of mistake, the web site craps out and you have to start the order placement process all over again. Contrast this with Amazon's One-Click ordering.
That said, I did manage to get my order for two coins. Maybe I should have bought two of each because based on traffic, there seems to be high interest for these Morgan dollars.

Looks like maybe I got one of each, 22 minutes if bad gateway errors and other errors, it signed me out, dropped my credit card, made me reset, I never saw a completed order screen in the mint website, it went to error "page can't be found" but did get an email confirmation of my order.
On the fence about ordering these and fate dealt the blow...got them in cart but many tries and crashes to check out resulted in "no longer available"....I guess that works out fine...
Got 2 of each, two separate orders. Grabbed O mint and my brother to grab CC mint, he was having issues, so I got the CC mint coins just in time. Lasted about as long as I would have figured.

Wow...The Mint is questioning my loyalty??? After over $10k in spend this year...
Had them in my bag early on but now sold out, frustrating yes, but I'll dust myself off and look forward to more misery on June 1st. No complaints from me, knew it was going to be tough to acquire one, will have to rely on the secondary market for the CC and O...

Don't quote me on that.
Took 18 minute and a lot of errors and bad gateways, but I got a CC. Now I just need a peace then I’ll be happy
Ditto. Oh well, keep one and flip one I suppose...

I finally got through (after countless gateway errors). Planned to order three of each, but ended up with an extra "CC" privy.

That wasn't such a chore, now was it?
5 of each in the bag. I can always melt them, right?

Took me 20 minutes to finally place my order. Frustrating,. Imagine a real low mintage coin.
Now says sold out
Stoked I was able to get my limit on both but now we have to wait until Oct?!?
Ordered my CC allotment, which took a long time. Then I ordered my O allotment, which went through without any hiccups.

Got 10 O after zillion trys.
Got to CC and unavailable

Yep. I got 10 O's, but dumb page not found and cloudflare errors kept me from the CC's. Anyone want to trade?
11:24 EST
The Os are no longer available.
--Severian the Lame
Got my order in!
This will not sell out today.
wow I made it by about 2 minutes
CC privy mark now shows currently unavailable
Picked up two CCs and two Os, 21 minutes
It's all about what the people want...
Gateway errors killed my chance at a CC but got an O.
Really not liking the Mint right now.

Shows they are unavailable! Not avalable
Selling at $175 ea on eBay
Never had a chance
Took me forever...okay 20 minutes, 200 bad gateways and 2000 refreshes...but I think I got all the orders in.

lots of errors before receiving confirmed order number at 914am and 916am (2 different order)
Was anyone else surprised to see the June availability date? That changes the calculation on these as you may not have to wait 5 months for delivery.

Sold out already. Well that was a bunch BS. Great site they got there.

Damn - I almost got there. I had them in the cart when they suddenly were no longer available. So much for being early.

Only 5?
I sometimes had 3 simultaneously as I had 3 windows open (CC coin, O coin, cart).

25 minutes of my life wasted. Glad to hear some folks got them.
Both are sold out...

Guess I'll start saving up now to buy one on eBay in Oct.
Checked my credit card, shows the mint pinged it, so I guess it's a done deal!
Error after error, and then no more CC's. Got an O mint.
