2008 Presidential Proof Sets

I got two sets off of eBay.
Anyone else receive any yet?

They look OK quality wise, like the 2007 sets.

I'm going to send mine in to PCGS for grading.

Still haven't change the "In God we Trust" off of these yet.
Guess, that is next year.

Same here, picked a set off of Ebay, figured that although my mint order is as yet undeliverable, these are still readily available. Im still waiting for graded FS sets, havent seen any on Ebay as yet. Odd because these sets were in hand on january 29th according to some, and usually the next day you see the FS coins up for sale. maybe PCGS is backlogged on them. Whats the rule on FS again?

The First Strike is a 30 day window from time the coins are available.

My guess- because of the storms near the Mint's shipping facility they have halted or delayed shipments. My subscriptions of them have not even entered my account page and that usually happens the week they go on sale. So its a possiblility that maybe the FS may become rare. Keep an eye on them.
