    Grew tired of waiting and cancelled my order of 2 sets. My understanding is silver per/oz mint sales have plummeted from June till now. So their should be no shortage of bullion... right?

    I have to wonder what the real deal is...

    I ordered both blue label NGC ER 70s and Flag PCGS FS 70s at GM. When the NGC sets came in but the PCGS were on indefinite delay, I called and asked GM to ship the NGCs. The CS rep was pretty short and informed me that they would not ship until all the items in the order were in stock. Now that the PCGS sets have arrived , I didn't get a ship notice so I checked their website. Ironically the blue ER NGCs are now out of stock! Guess I will be spending some time on the phone tomorrow with another helpful GM Customer service rep.

    Just an assumption, but assume 200 fresh sets yielded 147 enhanced 70's (73.5%). However, 44 reverse proofs is just 22% then. I wonder if this is due, in part, to the spotting problem on these coins that is being talked about more and more out there?

    Though I am sure I have seen less than 5% (probably less than that) of the silver eagle coins you have Wondercoin but all of the ASE I have had passed through my hands and that I have saved, raw and slabbed, I have yet to have not one with spots or developed spots. I wonder if it has to do how they are stored and what the climate is like where they are stored.

    Mine also was ordered on 6/4 and have yet to ship from GM! I am not as worried though, I think it will only be a couple of days now!

    They say they are. A few of us received shipping notices. The label has been prepared but it hasn't hit the post office yet. Funny, they insured them for $50.00.

    I'm guessing, but I have always been a good guesser. The dealers who pounded the 140+ thousand sets the first day. Pre sold and kept boxes sealed for FS later on. They opened up eBay accounts and so on and sold their first batches to bidders for astronomical prices. When the price finally drops to normal, they will then send in the sealed FS eligible boxes for FS attribution and then send them off to those "who thought they could flip them quick." It's a win-win for the big guys, that's how the world works and to us "small guys" the game is over. I mean they pre-sale the FS 70's before they even get them and it takes them more than a month to ship...they are raking it in while they laugh cigar smoke out of their whiskey-wet mouths! I have no problem with this what so ever, thats just Capitalism at its finest! It takes money to make money image

    You are probably right. As a middle man wholesaler during the beanie baby & pokemon craze I saw tens of thousands of cases go out the back door, sideways and every

    way you could think of. I still say a prayer every night for TY. God bless Beanie Babies and God bless Ty Warner.

    << <i>7/29 today and my order shows this:

    1 unit backordered. Expected to ship on 07/19/2013. >>



    Mine shows that too. Called the Mint. Evidently there are problems with the packaging that need to be resolved which is causing the delay. They said to expect shipping in the next few weeks. Pretty sad for something that was ordered back in May.

    Got no problem with this? Baloney! Tell the truth man! Another thing how could you not see this coming? Capitalism at its best my ass. Being in business has a moral factor to it. NOT ANYTHING just MORALITY so don't segway into something else. Modern coin flipping what a novel idea.

    What is this " GM" I keep seeing references to? Surely it isn't General Motors.

    Could it be the " God Mint " ? A new supreme entity that now has the US Mint in its back pocket?

    image


    And what about my order, placed on 05/09/2013 at 10:36 PM , with an expected ship date of 07/19/2013, which still hasn't shipped.

    Has the God Mint canceled everything after a certain mintage level. Are they stalling so everyone just cancels their orders?

    Stay tuned for the latest development between the God Mint and the guy that will not cancel - even if the set price drops to $40 on the bay.

    Thanks for the updates. Let us know when it hits 10,000. The number I will be looking for will be the final mintage number.

    With what has been going on it could be anywhere.image

    GM = GoldMart. I think most like me hate typing their name as one may type GoddamnMart!!!

    If you like to let them use your money for months, buy from them. If not, look else where!!!

    If you like rude as well as poor customer service, buy from them. If not, look else where!!!

    Hattrick, was your order in the 16,000 I know there are a lot more #'s then that but my last 5#'s are 16,000 something. I ordered the same day as you and I still have not received e-mail yet!

    Paulyaces76,

    My order # was just short of 17,000. I ordered the Blue West Point label as I already had a Flag Label on order which I received from Legacy two weeks ago.

    It was a perfect set and included OGP and an Miles Standish autographed copy of the Amreical Eagles Book for $ 309 including shipping. Nooker got one as well.

    Not to worry as GM usually sends two batches of emails. One mid day and one at the end of the day Pacific time. They ship Priority Mail which would get

    almost anywhere by Monday if the get to post office by the end of today.image

    Anyone else get the GM apology email? LOL The President of GoldMart is packing boxes while on vacation in California. They have a picture of this hotel room showing all the boxes he is shipping. So, his vacation just became a tax write-off ROFL!! I wonder if they flew in an employee to do the actual shipping?

    FYI – They stated that during that time period, they will have shipped 1,000 PCGS 70 FS sets
