I have always used express, 3 to 5 days for grades once entered as received, my sets arrived in CA 12-26 Wed at 6:30 a.m., signed for 6:30 pm., entered into system as rec'd 12-28, 30 days delay for truview?? glad I didn't get that, seems silly for moderns imho they will all look the same...
Sorry I can'y help it. I just read some of these posts, WOW.. is all I can say $5,000 per coin, $10,000 to $15,000 for matched set.....c'mon now, that's just crazy talk.
Like FB hunter said plats have a pretty small collector base and I'm even one of them al beit small time, but with 20 to 30,000 sets sold, no way even 70s will carry a big premium and to think that if they sell out that that will all of a sudden bring out the high prices is just kidding yourself.....if it sells out it will even be worse for prices especially in the long run, because 30,000 is about 23,000 too many to even be considered an average mintage. I'm sorry but this is the kind of thing that just makes some modern mint "collectors"/flippers sound silly.

Given the First StrikeSM designation is limited to sealed sets shipped within the first 30 days the total graded population will be much smaller than the maximum mintage of 30,000. The 10th anniversary set will be popular with platinum collectors and will also be sought after by others that don't necessarily collect the platinum series. Given the low 70 ratio of the platinum Proof eagles, there will less perfect PCGS 70/70 First StrikeSM10th anniversary sets to go around than the anticipated demand so I think the first sets available will go for a substantial premium.

I would believe the earlier you get yours in the better chance you have of making a 70 (seems most of the 70's come in early for some reason?!?)

Sent mine in Sat. Priority, Insured, no delivery confirmation(should have). Know they have alot to process but how long til they confrim "OK" and enter into their data base? Maybe by past heavy submitted coins, to guess time.
They are working today. My "priority"mail of last sat. mail was entered into system this morning. Just glad it made it there, without any sticky fingers taking it.

<< <i> I also sent them in express service (5-day). I hope it will be faster than Regular service?

it should be faster.
i did the true-vue, and express too, but true view will probably delay it by 30+ days now.....
