if it helps, i am keeping the 4 coin set

I think the MInt hates me. I appear to always be the last one to get anything. I finally got a 1/10 shipped. My 4 coin set hasn't shipped nor have my 1/4s.

I just got shipping notification on the SILVER PROOFS from a month ago! LOL

The Mint hates me...

I don’t feel so bad now. My silver proofs first shipped last night. No gold shipped yet.

coinpalice · March 17, 2021 4:41AM

the 4 coin set was available for a very short period of time, all gone again

mountain_goat · March 17, 2021 5:20AM

Yes, they were on for a second and I was able to order the set. Just received email confirmation for the mint USM09392XXX.

mountain_goat · March 17, 2021 5:40AM

For members that received their 4-coin set, would you kindly post dimension of Mint shipping box? I heard it is large and won’t fit into Fedex small shipping box. Thanks.

I wouldn't guarantee that they all ship in identical boxes.

I got 4 sets of 22 silver eagles. 3 of them were in identical boxes, the fourth was in a box almost half the volume. It was so small, I was really concerned that it had the wrong number of coins. Turns out the three big boxes were 50% bubble sheets.

Does one have to sign for the delivery of the coins???

I doubt it. They dumped $7000 in silver eagles on my driveway the other day. LOL.

UPS left my package on the second floor landing of my condo.

Since I knew approximately when he’d be there.....I grabbed them within a few minutes of delivery.

Because of the virus, UPS is not requiring signatures on any of their packages.

Well, goes to show that the customer service knows less than we do about the Mints policy. It clearly says free upgrades of gold shipping, but thats not the case.

It says free upgrade to “expedited” shipping, with a 2-3 day timeframe. Not overnight. First class takes about 2-3 days, seems like you got what they said. They aren’t requiring signatures right now due to Covid.

Actually, the shipping they are doing isn't expedited when it's first class, first class is the lowest shipping method. I got priority mail on the 1/10th, thats expedited in my opinion

Expedited isn’t a service. It’s a term the mint uses. First class takes one day longer than priority 2 day, which means it’s 3 days to get across the country. First class isn’t the lowest service, smart post, or even ups ground takes longer to get cross country. First class is fast.

92vette · March 17, 2021 8:59AM

Still waiting on shipping from a 12:06 order on 3/11, though it does contain multiple AGE PR items.

jessewvu · March 17, 2021 9:12AM

I talked to my post master. She said that the policy to leave signature required packages is no longer in effect. She was going to reach out to the drivers and inform them that they need to get signatures at time of scan.

I'm still waiting on 2020 Mint sets from the first week in January. LOL

spotthedog · March 17, 2021 10:20AM

Between calling the mint and my bank, I have about 3-1/2 hours invested in purchasing these coins. My bank has a limit on what I can spend(new to me). I can still hear the hold music playing in my mind. It appears as of now everything is okay. We'll see.

jmlanzaf What is the story with those mint sets? I have some also from Late December

Peyroguy · March 17, 2021 2:21PM

Here we go again, stuck in Memphis, just like the congrats ase. I assume I will be doing a inquiry to get this to move, I assume 7 days it will sit there

My delivery guy wasn't doing signatures for months, but as of Monday he came to my door for a signature. So, atleast the PO is doing signatures now

No idea. I haven't cared enough to even call and try to find out. As soon as the price drops on the secondary market, I'll just cancel them if they don't cancel them first.

It has to be the packaging. It can't be the coins as they don't mint 2020 coins in 2021.

UPS has an App, you can watch the truck location live.

JimTyler · March 18, 2021 10:01AM

My overnight from 3/13 just sits. Overnight use to get you bumped to the head of the line.

Goldminers · March 18, 2021 10:06AM

My order from 3/11 with "next day air" payment for shipping has not arrived. The 1/4 oz. order with budget free loyalty shipping also has not arrived. I think maybe Friday?

jwitten · March 18, 2021 10:09AM

My first order has shipped. I have 3 more orders made on the first day before saleout that have not shipped yet.

cheezhed · March 18, 2021 10:24AM

My 3/11 order for the one ounce shows shipped as of Monday, but it hasn't shown up at UPS yet. Odd..........

Mine do that with the mint too. They mark it as shipped, but I guess they do that before UPS actually have possession of it.

Tomthemailcarrier · March 18, 2021 10:40AM

Received my overnight 4 coin set on Tuesday. My USPS 1/2 ouncer being delivered today.

MsMorrisine · March 18, 2021 10:48AM

I think we determined in anoter thread that things like FIFO on shipping are now out the window.

they once processed overnight orders before first-class, too.

JimTyler · March 18, 2021 10:51AM

1 down 3 to go

JTHawaii · March 18, 2021 11:09AM

Got my four coin set yesterday by UPS, faster than past purchases from the Mint to Hawaii. Pays to upgrade to $17.95 shipping.

Maybe it just seems that way because you're reading them more slowly.

I did get a 1/10 in the mail this morning. I didn't open it.

Oh...and UPS apparently dumped another $7000 in silver eagles on my driveway 2 hours ago. I won't be home for another hour. smh....

Peyroguy · March 18, 2021 2:09PM

HOLY SH##, My 1/2 has made its way to to NJ, it might make it to me 2morrow like it was supposed too. Stocked
