Tried ordering from my cell phone. By the time I finally got them in my cart and had to refresh due to missing CC info they were gone. Actually wanted 1 of each for my collection. What a joke...

Had them in my cart for 3 minutes and it kept making me enter credit dard dat5a that was already saved on their system. Then I get to the bottom where it says confirm order and nothing. No button, no way to enter no possible way to complete the order. Then is says sold out.
Mint is a disaster and they should know better than to have 5 minute sellouts. I am so sick of this I can hardly keep this discussion safe for the public to view.

Originally posted by: Raufus Bought two of each. Don't even know why. A sick addiction. So hate that site when buying from my phone. Drives me nuts. My pre saved CC info comes up.

Exactly how my ordering process went!
C.C. was hit in the same minute my order was placed and is pending. WOW!
Made sure all info was correct and new password in place yesterday.
Would not process my order today as password would not go through. WTF
Missed out it seems, even though they were in my cart (bag).

Yeah...I prepped it last night as well. Including a new address for SEND TO.
While my PW was fine (changed it last night), the new address didn't exist.
I verified it TWICE last night after I did it, and they didn't have it this morning.
Not a great system. Had to do some re-entering, but, from the posts here, the 4 error outs I received put me out of the timeline for ordering anyway (and, I was logged into the USMint's system by 8:55am Pacific (11:55am East coast)
Mint already pinged my card. Twice actually. Hope that doesn't screw my order up. Last order I made they charged me then a week later with no shipping notification and no contact just cancelled the charge. Took almost 2 weeks for me to get the proof platinum.
I feel a bit fortunate on this. This was my first purchase directly from the Mint's webpage and only established an account 20 minutes prior. I was lucky enough to purchase the limit for each mint branch and already received the confirmation. The ordering required a few page refreshes before finally going through but why on earth was there such a low product limit of only 12,500 each?
Maybe I'm different but this kind of thing makes it interesting for me. It's maybe one of the few times the bumbling of the federal bureaucracy is funny.
Gold and silver are valuable but wisdom is priceless.

I just got confirmation now, almost an hour after my order, so maybe it's still pending. I placed my order at 12:04 which is close to when it closed, for whatever that's worth.

I am worried about my order - At check out a pop up window came up stating an error had occurred. Simultaneously, further up in the website, I was instructed not to refresh or hit the back button 'cause my order was processing. Then I was congratulated for placing an order with them. Soon after I checked the order history and found no order was placed. After a few minutes I received an e-mail confirmation. But now I'm concerned because I haven't received the shipping confirmation and my order history states ORDER PROCESSING. I've had orderers cancel even at the order processing stage : (
This one is going to take a bit of time to nail down on value as Ebay and the BST are searching for pricing. Pre-Saler's got left out.
I mentioned this "Pre Selling" to a friend last night. She said that seems unlawful to sell something you don't have in hand. I told her that's why God made lawyers.
I ordered 2 of each. Had no problem getting in and out two times in less than 4 minutes. Actually ordered 2 in one order and 2 in another so they are in different boxes. I assumed no one was ordering since it was so easy to order. Figured I made a mistake ordering them till I just read the thread. Crazy thing was I was on free public wi fi at a hotel using my old iPad which I've never used to buy anything before. Sorry to those who were shut out. It happened to me many times before.
I went to the Mint site shortly before noon, logged in and loaded both item page. As soon as they went on sale, I ordered 2 of each. Had some CC and load problems but finally went thru in well under 5 minutes. Just rec'd my confirmation email from Mint (order still shows "processing" on Mint site). Curious to see where these will go, price-wise. Set's of 4 were SOLD on ebay for $450, so who knows.

I am referring to those that pre sold theirs before the sellout and avoided the BIG jump in pricing!

Better hurry, going with the trend, prices will be south of the border, probably Antartica soon, no-one cares about current mint issues.

Same here. No confirm button.
Too bad they're coming smartpost...
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Have the people at the US Mint completely lost their marbles??
Product Limit across both MM = 25,000 (12,500 per MM)
The product SOLD OUT in 5 minutes.
Ordering went smoothly for me although I fat fingered my primary account 20 minutes before release and used an alternate account. 04369***
I'm sitting here reading forums and waiting for the confirmation email.
It finally arrives...................along with US Mint Product Notification emails for this SOLD OUT Product?
As soon as I saw the HH Ordering limit, my urgency level popped completely off the meter as I KNEW it would sell out very, very quickly.
Why is it, since this is their business, that they did not know?
The repercussions will be felt for quite a while IMO since a lot of folks like Bochiman were left out due to the fault of the US Mint/Treasury!

Was that the first Silver Medal in a while to be struck without any "In God We Trust" ?
One reason I decided to order - I liked the relative lack of letters. No "E Pluribus Unum" either. Or denomination!

Shipping notices in less than 1hr 45min? Unreal. But with only 12k across 2 mint marks they were probably all ready to go at noon.
