Not to hijack and I will order one set, but why is the site bogged down with an unlimited mintage and every coin is First Strike/Early Release eligible?

Cocoinut · May 9, 2013 4:08AM

The Mint website is "down for maintenance". I guess no one there had the foresight to realize what would happen on the first day of ordering for the year's most-anticipated set. You have to call to place an order.

Absolution · May 9, 2013 4:15AM

Make sure you dial the right number, I was retarded and dialed a number for call girls by accident ><

The US Mint is 800 - 872 - 6468

it is NOT 8468 blah

That may not be so. It depends on how they get them out the door not when the orders come in.

morgansforever · May 9, 2013 4:30AM

People are buying these for $180 a set right now. They'll be available for at least a month, crazy.

19Lyds · May 9, 2013 4:33AM

Hmmph!

So much for all the baloney bs about these sets.

These sets are w-a-a-y-y over priced! Yeah right! Thats why the friggin upgraded website is down and thats why the telephone lines have been busy for an hour and a half!

morgansforever · May 9, 2013 4:40AM

All I want is one struck on a gold planchet

I'll settle for a RP that is enhanced

guitarwes · May 9, 2013 4:42AM

Just got thru after redialing for about 35 minutes.

5 sets. Order # 41491***

The CS rep said the guy ahead of me bought 80 sets.

She also said that these wouldn't ship until the week of JULY 25.

I think they meant way overpriced for flippin'. Mint's chizzlin in on the profits.

Banemorth · May 9, 2013 4:46AM

Finally got through on the website. I'm in for 5 sets.

Order Number: 41492XXX

morgansforever · May 9, 2013 4:48AM

<<She also said that these wouldn't ship until the week of JULY 25.>>

My order states 5 units backordered. Expected to ship on 07/11/2013.

EDIT: Is this latest offering a good example of crowd herd dynamics?

Raufus · May 9, 2013 5:16AM

41496xxx

Just ordered my one very overpriced set.

shorecoll · May 9, 2013 5:16AM

Website seems to running faster, maybe the crush is over. 41495x, got two singles 30 seconds and 400 order #'s apart.

mbogoman · May 9, 2013 5:28AM

41493xxx for 2 sets. I'll keep it sealed for now and see what happens with graded sets on the open market. Sometimes it's cheaper to just buy an already graded set than to fork out up front and roll the dice for an unknown...

Rolling the dice is half the fun though!

Will this latest Mint offering set off a thread frenzy?
Last count was 143 threads, pertaining to the 25th Anniversary sets

I got my order in at 12:18

Order # 41480xxx

Expected ship date of 6/17

guitarwes · May 9, 2013 5:41AM

<< Just ordered my one very overpriced set. >>

Yeah. My mindset is that silver is still close to $35/oz, which is only double melt.........I keep forgetting silver is less than $25/oz.

.......but, but, but, it's the first ENHANCED version!!!!

Big flippin' doo.

Absolution · May 9, 2013 5:44AM

Just placed my order too, hopefully I can still qualify for first strike submissions

1201reset · May 9, 2013 5:55AM

#41488XXX

Goldbully · May 9, 2013 8:26AM

What is the earliest ship date so far?
7/25/13 is quite a ways off......no First Strike for me it appears.

Draped10c · May 9, 2013 8:35AM

Why are people paying $140 for this crap? You can have 5 regular silver eagles and they all smelt the same.

Overpriced is an understatement.

I chuckle to think my heirs will maybe get 20% back of melt for these (smelting costs etc.

).

JaLP · May 9, 2013 10:12AM

Shipping date now shows 8/8. Seems to be getting pushed out 2 weeks after some number of orders

<< 4151

I don't know why I ordered this either....BUT, one never knows. Good thing I had a VERY good week at work (never realized what a good bartender can make in a week [yeah, I'm a natural, I guess, so I've been told]...at this rate my student loans will be paid off in record time, but in the meantime, I'm just wiping my arse with my diploma and don't feel great about it).

BUT, I did get my order in, no problems, but a 7/25 BO date (I don't even know if my sealed box will be eligible for FS?????..anyone???). With only one set, I hope there are no horror stories of loose coins in these boxes. My ord # was 41510 also.

WOW!!! While I was writing my post, my order # is 415106XXX, and showed a 7/25 date. JaLP orders right after me (I'll figure 12 mins max, I'm sure I was in right at 8pmET, just about exact, as I just got in from work) and shipping time jumps 2 weeks in approximately 10 minutes? With only a few hundred orders placed in that time (depending on how deep JaLP is in the 41510700's, it could be up to/a bit over/under, a thousand orders), and those are all not specifically for this set......though given the jump in ship dates, COULD most have been for this set?

Could this be a loser out of the gate, seeing there's no mintage limit, and the ship dates jumping in leaps and bounds in 8 hours? I know it's waaaaaay to early to even venture a guess as to how it will do, but with no mintage limit, and ship dates jumping like crazy....???

bsshog40 · May 9, 2013 10:34AM

I questioned my one order set also, but I do like Ase's, and I like the enhanced ase in this set. There may wind up being a million of these but at least I'll have one.
