    Remember when the mint would stop sales for a week to do inventory and when they came back up, lots of old stuff was available?

    Am I remembering that correctly or making that up?

    Quite likely

    I don't know why we're bothering to check in. There's a neat feature the mint provides called REMIND ME. Just let them know you're interested in a specific coin, they'll remind you later on when it's available, you can then just pop in and purchase it. Relax and wait for that reminder! ;)

    The time for the reminders appears to be 9:07 a.m. EST

    I think that is about right. Especially if they are down to the bottom of the inventory, they sometimes didn't know exactly how many were available until they counted. That may still be true to some extent.

    Nothing flipped so option B is unlikely

    I would assume if they did that it would take the entire system offline not just prevent morning inventory updates.

    It is probably a simple single script that updates the sites available quantities once a day. They have probably paused the script around Christmas and will probably resume it at some future point after.

    Maybe. It's also possible that the script is running but no one in purchasing or inventory is updating anything.

    I thought they took the entire website down for "inventory" once a year or something like that. Back when you could call the warehouse directly.

    Funny story, back when the 2006 20th Anniversary 3 coin gold and silver coins came out, I called the warehouse directly and was able to get an order of 6 Gold sets placed. My order of 10 was canceled because my credit card declined the high order. This was WAY after they had "sold out" but they shipped the "last 6" they had.

    Those were the days..

    Wow!! Incredible score.
