Still no hit on my credit card--and I ordered within a couple of minutes after they went on sale. The 25th set shipped at a rate of about 3,000 sets per day, so if they start shipping Friday, the first 150,000 should all be shipped by the end of September.
They're going to wait another week and a half and ship them at the same time that the "Coins & Chronicles" set is shipped to the 3 people who ordered that set....thus creating a pickle for the TPG's....
Well across the street is dealing with the "pickle" a bit differently....they are requiring an equal amout of RP's and PF's in order to get the SF set label...this will prevent anyone from sending in a bunch of PF's from the C & C set just to get the SF set label....

Hmmmmmm...a design difference could really make NGC's approach interesting.

Probably too expensive to be worth a flip. However, if initial sales are slow and a "First Strike" designation with the C&C identifier is obtainable, a PR70 *might* carry a worthwhile premium.
If they moved all of those late October sets up to July 27, then that might indicate significant cancellations/disqualifications and maybe a lower mintage and POPs

I ordered the last day and mine says will ship 7/27, but the cancel box is still there. Still thinking about cancelling, what is the future looking like for this set?

Not good. You're underwater and sinking fast. I'd cancel. jmo
Mine first order shipped today, and I expect it will arrive here by tomorrow... the next order - scheduled originally for shipping 9/28 - had its ship date changed to 7/27...
How about that? Retroactive Delivery. By the time they arrive, I will have already sent them in for grading, listed and sold on eBay, and spent the profits on wine, women, and women, and women, and...

I ordered the last day and mine says will ship 7/27, but the cancel box is still there. Still thinking about cancelling, what is the future looking like for this set?
