Is the Mint getting "wise"?

Okay, I admit it, I'm one of those who orders all of my sets from the mint at the same time to get the break on the shipping.

This year the Mint is releasing the sets in a more staggered pattern than ever before. Is this solely because of the availability of precious metal and the two new nickel designs or is it also designed to prohibit the public from taking advantage of the single shipping charge per order scenario?

If I order all of my sets now, Uncirculated (Available September 6th), Clad Proof (Available now) and Silver Proof (Available September 13th), will I receive three seperate shipments and be charged shipping for each one?

Should I wait until September 13th when all of the products would be available and take the chance of one of the other products being sold out or worse get someone elses picked-over returns?

    I ordered one silver proof set and one mint set at the same time. I only paid once for the shipping. I will be receiving them in two separate shipments (already have the silver proof set) since the mint sets are on back order. That's about all I can help you with. image

    You only pay 1 shipping charge per order - regardless of the number of packages they ship.
