Both my US Mint and CC account shows sales activity (pending) on Sunday, July 7, 2024. So far, the dollar amount is only for 2 purchases. My US Mint account shows Morgan being processed and Peace Dollar is still TBD. CC alerted me of the US Mint sales. Merchant address was 801 9TH ST NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20220 (US Mint Headquarters in Washington DC).

what did they charge - old or "new" prices?
Well, just Love coins, period.
New for mine, which hardly seems right, since it's the 7th not the 9th, but it is the USM. Returns will be on the way.
Yeah. New prices are already on the website for products like these that won't be shipping until after 7/9. I'm sure your charges are pending, not posted, since they won't finalize until after product ships on 7/11.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but, either way, no one is buying anything at old prices that won't be released until new prices go into effect. This is different from a back order that they might accept at old prices while awaiting inventory.
Your prerogative. But, what were you expecting? You had since 7/2, when they sent out an e-mail to all subscribers about the price change, to cancel your subscriptions, as many of us did.
You also should know by now that that they do not process changes to subscriptions after 11:59 p.m. 5 days prior to release, which is why your card was pinged today and your coins are on the way. If not, it is prominently displayed on the My Product Subscriptions home page.
Under the circumstances, it will serve you right if they charge you round trip shipping for the return, since you wasted their time and money by thinking you would be an exception to what they clearly state are the rules, both with regard to pricing and with respect to changes to subscriptions.
"Return Policy
If for any reason within 7 days of receiving your product you are dissatisfied with your purchase, you can return the entire product for refund.
Shipping charges will not be refunded for all returns."
I seriously doubt they will make you pay for the free shipping to get the coins to you. It will be interested to see whether they eat return shipping for everyone like you who thought they were kidding about the price increase, and are returning coins over the $15. If not, you'll just be spiting yourself if you pay to return the coins.
If they ship via ups just refuse delivery when they arrive and you won’t have to worry about doing any return on your own. This is the easiest process.
My Peace dollars were processed but not my Morgans.
Actually, no. The easiest process would have been to cancel the subscription after the e-mail went out announcing the price increase a full 5 days before processing began.
Refusing a UPS shipment that does not require a signature is not necessarily easy, and requires the package to actually make it back to the Mint, and for the Mint to actually credit your card, and to not actually deduct anything for shipping after refusing an order you placed, for no reason other than you changed your mind after the window for you to change your mind closed.
Might work out for you. Might not. But definitely not the easiest process, since the odds are high that the package will be left for you, UPS or USPS, without you even being notified, unless you bought more than $600 worth of them.
It’s a miracle !! My addiction to silver coins has been cured by outrageous US Mint prices. 😂
I'm pretty close behind you. I didn't pull the trigger fast enough on canceling the Morgan and Peace subscriptions but I have been weaning myself off of the SE variations for the past few years.
I just cancelled on an old subscription order that was in processing this am because of the price increases.
I will probably take a few at the new price, but not drinking the koolaid on silver prices necessitating this substantial of increase.
Since this solution requires going back in time now, I don’t think it can qualify as the easiest solution any longer.
Not always.
Did that once. Took a few months and I had to contact USM's customer service a few times as well.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
Yes, of course. Hence the words "would have been." The fact remains that refusing a delivery on a package that does not require a signature is rarely an "easiest solution." Particularly when the mistake was yours, and you are looking for a refund.
Any way to know how many of these get sold in the next week or two. Seems like there was a place you could see mint orders weekly.
@Goldbully I’m guessing you would know
Thanks
Martin
Sure Martin, there certainly is......and I will defer to @MetroD who does it best when it comes to modern Mint issues.
Man I’m glad that wasn’t life or death info😂.
There is a coin like like to know how many they’ve sold this year though.
Martin
@Goldbully - I am humbled by the comment. I do not deserve it, but I am humbled.
