FINALLY got in via phone (my checkout on the web is still processing)......phone order of 2 sets at 2:25pm...
order # 38349XXX
Received my confirm email, also.
Was told by the CSR who took my order, Nicole (she was soooo nice and helpful, no language barrier whatsoever, so that made it as easy as possible), that they are definitely expecting a sell-out of the A25's TODAY, and though no word has been said to the operators as of the time of my ordering, they are all expecting these to be sold out today, their phones are so busy. She also told me these will ship within the next 1-2 weeks (this is my very first phone order, so not sure if thats what they always say, or if it was the truth). Hopefully, my website order will go through also, but fortunately, I was able to get through on the phone....had the laptop and phone going in umison since 12:00 straight up. It's crazy, I'll tell ya!!!

Started at noon, got order of 5 sets from the Website....had to click, close and click again on Mint buttons. I have IE and I only ever got 5 bars in the bottom bar....thens when I would re-click to prod it along. Right now it's stuck on Order Review, yet I got an email confirmation.

I guess that is likely to be the case. Didn't even think about it.
After trying for nearly 3 hours on line, and not being able to get through Fast Checkout, I finally got through on the phone, with an order for 5 sets, #38354XXX. I've never seen the Mint's website so slow. Very frustrating.
Wow, almost four hours later and the mint site is still not loading. This is a hot item.
The one thing to remember is that everyone that is going to sell single sealed sets on Ebay have to generate 5 order numbers for thier five sets. The order numbers are not going to reflect total sold very accuratley
I dont know how i did it but with my average connection I managed to place 7 separate orders in just over an hour after they went on sale. I ended up ordering 3 separate orders for two each and four singles. Here are my order numbers:
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
