    Yea got that one too, actually works out for me cuz it was a friends birthday this weekend and I forgot I had placed an order and I ended up draining my checking account, I was hoping they wouldnt hit me with a charge this weekend.

    Even though I have a subscription on back-oder (intentional misspelling since the subscription program stinks for limited order items), I have not received one email from the US Mint with regard to the order.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    Subscription

    Order Number: 32578xxx


    cancel box present

    ship date now pushed out to 9/1.



    Julia Tyler First Spouse order shipping today when it was backordered and ship date was pushed out past today, too.



    process for "backorder" and "est. ship dates" sucks. Will reserve opinion on actual ship date when it happens. will it be 1-2 weeks? They probably have a flood of subs to process.



    patience.

    No I think they were bragging about thier intent to become more responsible. Never the actual act of becoming more responsible. image

    If we're lucky the LP4 will be delayed for six months or more, hopefully holding off the 2010 redesign issue as long as possible.
  • tahoe98tahoe98 Posts: 11,388 ✭✭✭


    .......the way things are going the mint is liable to just decide to keep LP4 for 2010!!!image

    o first spouse Julia Tyler ordered 8/6 immediate backorder e-mail with 8/14 expected ship date
    o on 8/13 in the am rec'd an e-mail with back order expected shipdate of 8/25
    o on 8/13, the website changed to "in stock and reserved" and the cancel box was gone
    o in 8/17 -> shipped....

    11 days, and well before 8/25 and only 3 days after the first expected ship date.

    we'll see in 1 - 2 weeks.
