Ordered my second one(actually a friend did it for me) #33167xxx Going to have a few more friends order them for me, hopefully I will get ten thats what I want.
Are u using different billing addresses or different shipping. The whole household thing sounds like it could work if the shipping is different. Ive heard that billing address means household? >>
one on my account and one on my dads, different addresses, different everything.
order#3316XXXX I got through just by using the Mint's main site addy. Never got through by phone, even by pushing zero after opening recording. Once you get through to their site, you're safe/in. Just be patient from that point on. The whole procedure took me 48 minutes.

Nope, but I don't remember UHR sales being this bad. Plus, it's like someone who doesn't learn from their mistakes - why is it this painful every time?

Just took me over 45 minutes to get it done, but finally checked out with order #33174xxx. By far the most frustrating online ordering experience I've ever had, I got booted out four times. Somehow accidentally ended up with 2 in my cart but only got charged for one. Bummer.
Got my second set WAY more easily than my first. I went to main page, just placed an order (did not use an account, just 'guest'), just shipped to my folks house...whole ordeal took less than 5 mins...including confirmation email to secondary email acct...

They only let me order one. This was by phone, never could make it to the order page on the website.

The sellout point would seem to be 33159000 + 50,000 = 33200000.
