US Mint orders changed to "shipped" this morning!

If you've got outstanding orders from the US Mint, especially if they're for spendy stuff, you may be interested to know that between last night and tonight orders have had their status changed from "in stock an reserved" to "shipped" with tracking numbers for delivery tomorrow.

You may want to go and check yours.

Merry Boxing Day!

    I have 4 orders in stock and reserved. All 4 remain that way.

    I have 3 more backordered. Each day, they update the expected to ship date by pushing it out one day. This could get old.

  • some of my BU $100 Plats shipped for me today
  • Not mine; my unc plat went from 01/02 to 01/08 a couple of days ago to 01/09 overnight. Does this mean that someone was actually working at the mint this weekend? Or just some scheduling software being automatically updated somehow? Seems remarkable either way.

  • Yeah, my (10) 1 .oz - 2006 American Platinum Eagle W-Unc's went to "shipped" today, too.

  • Just checked, but nothing so far. I have the mint ship to my PO Box, so not sure, but it may have something to do with the ship method as to whether or not the status changed today.

    That 12/25 shipping date is phoney. If you check the FedEx tracking number it will probably show 11/22 as the shipping date, like mine, with delivery scheduled for tomorrow.

    No change in the status of my orders. Ya know it was a LOT BETTER when the mint shipped priority mail and the mailing carton would actually fit the merchandise in a proper way.

    Thanks for the heads up. I went to check on my orders and my last order of 3 - 1 oz BU Plats is listed as shipped today. I tracked it and it's status is "shipping data transmitted to FedEx". I suppose maybe Tuesday, FedEx will actually pick up the 3 packages. Maybe in a few days I'll have them all. Now what am I to do with them - this will give me 7 - 1 ouncers in hand. Maybe a Dealer will trade a nice 1790's ( no I didn't say 1790 - I mean 1795 -1799 , I don't want a 1794 ) Silver Dollar for a few of them?

    My 1/2 ounce Plats have been pushed back 1 more day. Will they ever ship?
  • doh!

    If the mint employee can be believed, mine were at the warehouse on Friday (though they still say "in stock and reserved")

    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

  • Fed-ex tracking shows 12-22-06 shipping with estimated delivery for 12-26-06.Mint site says shipped 12-25-06.my order # for two 1 ouncers is #23869xxx .

  • My platinum order says that it was shipped FedEx yesterday.
    Using the tracking number on FedEx's website, it says that "electronic data was transmitted" on the 22nd.
    So, I called FedEx. They said that all the sender did was print a label on the 22nd and FedEx never received it as they don't have a record of a pick-up scan.
    I called the Mint. The first lady said "perhaps the order was shipped DHL after all, let me transfer you to a supervisor". The supervisor said "I don't know what goes on in the warehouse but, they were supposed to ship it yesterday. Perhaps FedEx wasn't working and the the warehouse was short-staffed. You should really wait a couple of days in case it shows up. In any case, we can't do anything until 30 days have passed."

    I am truly disgusted with the way the US Mint operates its shipping department. Can't they hire professionals?

  • I just got off the phone with Fed Ex and she said my plats will be delivered tomorrow.Tracking said fed ex was notified on 12/22/06 and the mint site said shipped on the 25th.Fed ex tracking site said they would be delivered today at 10.30 am but when i called fed ex she said because of the holiday,delivery will be 1 day late.
