Tracking problems with the US mint orders?

BIGBEN7

Is there anybody else having problems tracking there package with the US mint tracking numbers they provided?

No problems here.
In general, the tracking # supplied by the Mint takes several hours (or more) to get cycled thru the tracking system.

Got their email saying shipped in the evening of the day shipped.
Checked tracking the next morning said out for delivery.
I signed for it at about six PM I'm out at the end of the line for them.

No problems. Entered number in UPS web site, and received status. It did take a little time from when the tracking number was on the mint web site until it was on UPSs....

received tracking number on Friday and still does not show up on UPS web site.

I received my email last Thursday night saying they'd been shipped that day, but tracking didn't work til after I'd stayed home all day Friday waiting. Then that evening tracking said the label had been created THAT day and shipped, and my order will arrive Monday morning. Imagine, a government agency LYING!

Edited to add... I'm a huge Steelers fan, adore my team, but your sig is the most annoying one on this forum since DW cracked down. That Super Bowl was 2 years ago, please update with a picture that doesn't induce migraines.

Have you considered the very likely possibility that a label was created by the shipper late Friday and that the item has not been handed over to UPS because it's a weekend? UPS cannot begin to offer tracking until it has the item.

Dam again my ship date got moved back AGAIN , it started out on 11/14/2011 now on the US Mint site my shipping date was moved to 11/26/2011 seems like every other day it moves back on me ??? WTF is up with the Mint ???

Every day, it moves forward a day... typically, two weeks out from the current day's date... very frustrating...

And as if to add insult to injury, I've got 3 consecutive orders (a total of 5 sets) that are still "on hold", evidently waiting for the completed return of the letters they sent, asking each order be verified and signed for... I returned these, together, by mailing back 11/8 because they needed to be received by 11/14 (according to the Mint)... and no word yet on IF they received them.

I called the Mint on 11/11, they said I coulda CALLED and simply read the letter to them over the phone... but the rep said she would note each record that I called...

No change in the Tracking info. yet... waiting... nervously... but assume no cancellation email is good news...

Absolutely. My order was sent out mid Friday afternoon. UPS site didn't show until around 8PM.
UPS site still shows mine at departure point despite the fact that it must have arrived at the local depot yesterday to ensure delivery Monday morning by 10:30.
At any rate, if your tracking info doesn't show up by Monday evening, it's time to call customer service.
