US Mint subscriptions

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen , im new to dealing with the mint having had one previous transaction that went through flawlessly.Tonight i wanted to subscribe to the new offering and that seemed fine , until i got to the checkout , it had my items but the total amount was 0.00 , it should have been considerably more.
I got a receipt in email and an order number , again it shows my items and a total of 0.00

Will they debit my card later or have i messed up somehow ?Thanks for any help.

    Since you ordered a subscription, the price is zero for that service. The cost of the item in the subscription will be charged to your cc when the it becomes available and shipped. This way, the USMint won't actually charge you in advance for something that is not yet available.

    Yep....and, make sure you use a CC number that isn't expiring soon (while the subscriptions may occur)....else you may not get them when you think you will....

    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

  • Thanks guys i really appreciate your replys.The first subscription last month took the money right away so i was a little bemused to see 0.00 this time , i totally see whats what now , thanks again
  • I have 5 subscriptions and haven't been able to see them for over a month...I keep getting "Page unavailable"

    When I called the Mint they had no clue what was wrong....frustrating

    I agree with the answers provided for the original question.

    In my experience, I've never had a subscription get charged. The subscrition gets 0.00 and generates a new order later on that has the product price.
