Ok, let me offer a sample of what Joe/Twosides is offering.
Where can you go and get your daily dose of steriods and fiber?
Right here, Take some members that I will not mention. They have so much spew to say/steriods, that all the stuff that runs out of their mouths is crap/fiber.
My credit card hit but monthly invoice was processed last night (UHR charge still showing as pending). That was close. I have an extra month to pay for it.

<< <i><< you guys know why I love this place. It's got a certain nutrient >>

BS, which at times gets knee deep. >>
I don't know where the BS comes from. The nutrient was "HUMOR". The vitamin in vegemite is "B" The "vegemite" comment was because the next shipment of these coins will be struck on planchets from the Perth mint in Australia. But let's not assume that George's (YaHa) interpretation of what I meant, was accurate.
My understanding is they ship it to them and they turn it into planchets. Anybody else know for sure I'm regularly running about 50% these days...My memory that is, seems too many blows to the head impairs memory...
I think the move to the new fulfillment is a total disaster, they now have a new record of doing whatever with shipping, expedited? No, just throw the stuff in a box and throw it on your porch. I don't think they are using Fedex anymore, but UPS? Talk about losing all credibility...

JOe, I was rolling the dice with your theory. I don't get it sometimes my numbers add up to 13 on 2 dice.
Parcel Post actually means UPS (United Parcel Service). Apparently the mint software hasn't been changed to offer "UPS" as a choice for the people who plug in the data. If you click on the link, it takes you to the US Postal tracking website and of course you get a message indicating that your tracking number is invalid. Cut the number and paste it into the UPS tracking website and you will see your tracking info.

You are correct, it's out on a UPS truck for delivery this AM on the west coast, thanks.
I ordered one by 12:15pm/ET: #30826XXX, but have yet to receive it. Like most of you, it's been very frustating. Sincerly appreciate all the great advise that's been shared by soem of the entries.

Welcome Capt. We have a lot of military members on here. Cool..
I placed my order for the UHR at 12:05pm on day one. Order number 30826XXX. Order has shown - Your order request is in process - for over a week now. UHR as shown In stock and reserved ever since first ordered, and the price has always been $1189.00 for the UHR and $0.00 for the Book. Book said backordered up until Sunday when it showed ship date of 2/6/09. Cancel boxes have been gone since Sunday night, and Sunday is also when the Mint put a pending charge of $1207.90 on my CC. I have called and spoken with Customer Service twice now. The first time she told me that nobody's order would be shipped until 2/27/09, and that's when mine would ship. The second time I called was Monday. She told me that my order was scheduled to ship on 2/20/09. I told her that I HAD to be one of the first couple hundred orders that were taken, and my order number was one the lowest number that I have seen anywhere, yet some people we getting their coins. She said let me check, and came back to the phone and said....Well, they did something on your order today, but I'm not sure what, maybe they are shipping yours now, then said maybe you should wait a couple of days and call us back. I told her that they had a pending on my CC, and she said they do all of them that way. If I were a betting man, I'd bet the the Customer Service LEFT HAND has absolutely NO IDEA of what the RIGHT HAND Shipping Department is doing, and I would also bet that they were all just twiddling their thumbs.....that is if their thumbs are still in sight, and not in some dark place. I don't see many positive posts here. I hope we are all happy here in a few days!
Again, I have been monitoring this (and other Boards religiously) and cannot make sense of the Mint's order delivery sequence. I have a #30826XXX (within 1st 15mins order #), but it appears (from this board and others) that some orders have shipped before my order. Unless there are many more folks that I can imagine with very early order #s, I just don't understand. I have been "layin' in the weeds"...watching, I cannot understand the Mint's "first-in, first-out" proclamation.
Has anyone studied/recorded the posts to note which order #s have been delivered to date?
BTW, I was a Navy Crypto Unit CO (5 times), Navy Reserve National Staff-4yrs...37yrs total Service.

Here is something that may be of some interest. I ordered some proof sets on Jan 21st at about 5:00 central time. I have since received that order - the order number was:
30823xxx
so 18 hours before the start of the UHR sale - that was the order number. I submitted an additional order about 2 mintes later and the order number increased by 5 so after 18 hours using 100 orders an hour puts the predicted lowest order number for the UHRs at approximatley: 30825000
After visiting with many groups and forums, plus collector friends across the country that ordered within the first 5 minutes, and I would have guessed the starting number for the UHR to be 30826000. One of my friends speed dialed the number at straight up 12pm, got lucky and got through, and his number was just under 30826100.
I called at 11:55am and spoke with a Customer Service lady, acting like I didn't know, and she told me that I had to call back after 12:00pm, about 4 minutes later. It was worth a shot.
Just got email my order has shipped, but it was for 5 2008 gold 1/10 proof eagles I ordered early Jan so surprised I was. Did not expect it thats for sure. My uhf order # is 30850XXX
Welcome Sircharlie & Cryptoguy...My ordered went in at 12:07, Order# 30826413, cancel boxes left Monday, Card hit, and nothing, no tracking and to date still shows in process. Also, I noticed from your amount SC, you must have added expedited shipping. That's a free automatic upgrade for items over $300 or gold or platinum items. Who knows what their doing but with reported blank shortages and the goofy unpredictable mint shipping could very well lead to low pop's for the labels...
I don't know what this means, but after the US Mint's charge on my bank account sat in Pending status the past few days, it has disappeared. Maybe there is a time limit imposed by the bank on pending transactions. Anybody else check theirs?
<< <i>I don't know what this means, but after the US Mint's charge on my bank account sat in Pending status the past few days, it has disappeared. Maybe there is a time limit imposed by the bank on pending transactions. Anybody else check theirs? >>
Same here, that often happens when they ship then they charge right after the package is received.
I ordered mine later, so I don't expect to get it in time for 1st Strike (not that I need that, but I like the label) and plan on keeping this for my collection.
But I did see some on eBay with a $500-$600 profit for a quick flip. Since there is no "limit" on the mintage, would this tempt some of you with early orders to sell this one and order another one (if you intended to keep it)?
What do you think the first PCGS 70 will go for?
Welcome to the 2 newbies! Be careful, this forum can be habit forming and very educational!
It does look like the Mint's new processing company is cheaper for a reason and you get what you pay for!
I'd keep playing. I don't think the heavy stuff will be coming down for quite a while!
