UHR Order Status vs. Item Status vs. "The Backordered Email"

northcoinnorthcoin Posts: 4,987 ✭✭✭✭✭
There appears to be an important distinction between "Order Status" and "Item Status" as reported by the U.S. Mint's Tracking feature. Apparently just because the Item Status shows "In Stock and Reserved" does not mean that the item is on hold. Similarly even though the same order reporting shows an Order Status of On Hold does not mean that the order is backordered. If this isn't confusing, the emails most everyone is getting today apparently state that the order is backordered even though apparently that does not mean backordered but rather that the order has been held back. Go figure. My guess is most of this date shuffeling has to do with holding in stock items to go out until the book is ready to go with the coin.

    The blanks are coming from Australia. Is it possible the books are coming from (ugh) China? (I've seen a few books printed there.)

    The Mint must be having a heck of a time getting those hard-to-find rectangular paper planchets...

    The email I got said......Don't you feel good that you didn't buy one and don't have to worry about when it's going to ship.
