    Here's my adventure with the Mint this morning:

    I make my first call @ 10:58 (11:58 ET) and the customer service/sales rep asks to take my order, I say "I would like the Westward Journey Nickel coin and Medal set" he says, "they are not on sale for another 2 minutes", and I say "well, what can we talk about for 2 minutes?, he says, "I'm sorry I cannot do that" and hangs up. Probably missed the opening bell by 30 seconds. image

    It takes me another 45 minutes to finally get through and make my order. I ordered the coin and medal set last year at about 11:30am and never got them, it will be interesting to see if I get them this year.

    The beauracratic mindset never ceases to amaze me


    PS Have they recetly outsourced the phone orders to India? Everytime I order now, I can hardly understand the person taking my order. image
