    I liked the old system where order conf email showed the products ordered instead of just the order number. No idea why they changed this.

    Edited: while typing this post I received second emails, this time w products. First emails say order acknowledgement, second order summary. Why two emails?

    I got a second email confirmation showing order details about 30 minutes after the first email with only the number like you. Check your inbox again.

    First is to confirm receipt of order submission. Second is to confirm product ordered. It's the gov't, lol..

    Indeed.

    I have to say that the single email w the past system was perfectly adequate.

    Stupid question, having never ordered from Da Mint before:

    Does "Backordered" mean:

    (1) that they have sold through the entire 75,000 mintage and you'll only get one if there are returns/declined orders, or

    (2) that they have sold through the N ready-to-ship units and you will still actually get your order... at some point, or

    (3) something else entirely.

    The mint will try someting new this time to help the TPG's. They will not ship until all 75,000 sets are
    ready so the TPG's can charge extra for all of thoes First Strike labels.image

    This will be tough to call

    It could be either 1 or 2.

    Usually it's 2, but the fever seems strong with this one and with the order count and assuming everyone got 5, we're pushing a sell out. But that is ASSuming 5 and ASSuming all are MoD set orders.

    The back order dates are usually, but not always, conservative overshoots.

    These will be on TV shortly, no doubt. imageimageimage

  • In hand listings up from kiosk sales. I'd guess the dollar will not be set eligible as it's an open set.

    has anyone had their order show shipped yet?

    No, and my order was placed by 12:01. I had already logged in, set up my account credit card, and was to the product page well before the ticker started. Once it said add to bag, I added the set and purchased. All done. Order says processing.





  • << <i>and the first strike clock will likely start tomorrow

    They won't start the FS clock with Kiosk sales, it's when the mint starts shipping.

    The clock starts in the day of first receipt by pcgs. It will likely be tomorrow.

    My bet was around 25-30 % of mintage ready to ship.. impressive day for the Mint

    Nope, starts when shipping commences as has been their policy for several years. Maybe try Google and research...for...a...bit...

    I was quite happy to flip my four sets for $425 on EBay.
  • MsMorrisineMsMorrisine Posts: 32,997 ✭✭✭✭✭
    The first strike date will be set by pcgs and there'll be no contesting that. Though, some dates I question.

    Price appreciation potential

    Everyone has forgotten about the tv hucksters. They have been saying the EU Sac has been selling at ever increasing prices on their successive show offerings.


    Same mintage - I'm thinking the tv hucksters will do similar to these. Buy them up and sell into oblivion with ever increasing prices.

    With each passing day it is looking more and more like the $$ to be made with these sets will not be the sealed/first strike eligible boxes, but , rather, the lucky few who receive a truly high grade reverse proof dime.

    So maybe open up yer boxes and see if you won the lottery?

    1st strike 70 dimes ... wow !!
  • BackroadJunkieBackroadJunkie Posts: 3,745 ✭✭✭✭✭
    March 10 numbers out. (These are subject to revision before tomorrows final numbers):

    DM1...2015 MARCH OF DIMES SILVER PROOF....45,384
    DM2...2015 MARCH OF DIMES SILVER UNC.......20,980

    DM5...2015 MARCH OF DIMES SPECIAL SET......69,050

    The dime set in 1 week outperforms both the proof *and* uncirc (on sale for 8 weeks).

    92% sold. Should go dark this week.
  • KudbegudKudbegud Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭✭✭
    The missing piece of the puzzle is how many of those 69,050 were available on day one. We know that "Back Order" started around 30 minutes in. Curious minds want to know.

    Have seen no one selling graded dimes yet, and surprisingly haven't seen any of the big modern sellers offering any pre-sale PCGS or NGC 70s for sale... almost always see that with new releases. Seems odd.

    They are probably waiting to see initial grade percentages so they can decide on an appropriate price level.....

    << <i>Household limits lifted...order away!image >>

    Currently Unavailable. (i.e. sold out until the audit.)

    Figures. I tried to order another set this morning, and got the household limit exceeded message. Didn't pay attention for a couple of hours, and they're gone. Story of my life. image
  • bigolebigole Posts: 385 ✭✭✭
    That's why this forum is so valuable.

    I bought my original four and flipped them. Bought a single set and liked it but didn't like the quality (a big rim ding on the $1 and a scratch on the regular proof), but could make a profit on it via Ebay and sold it Saturday.

    Saw earlier today that the household limit was lifted, and got in another order. I'm fine with waiting until August.
