Somebody said you need to refresh to get in the waiting room. Is it true? I have been on the page since 11:30 and did not refresh until I saw that post, then I refreshed at about 11:56, then I was on a page saying "....will be released in 3 minutes....", at 12:00, I was immediately on the product page, and checked out in less than 1 minute, there was no waiting time for me at all. So I only got in the waiting room 4 minutes before 12:00, and no waiting time?
You were lucky. I was logged in 40 minutes prior. Placed a trivial order. Waited until the wait waiting room finally locked in solid about 15 till. Then when the time came... 31 minute wait.
The waiting room and how it worked were a joke today. You're in/you're out. And when I placed my order it didn't give me the usual confirmation and now says hhl limit reached wtf???

Try opening a new tab and going to https://www.usmint.gov/cart , then scroll down.
Some people still see the Marine coin at the bottom. If you do, you're all set and can check out without waiting.
Brilliant.

It did that to me too I refreshed and completed my order.
I wonder what % of the people trying to buy this coin are only buying it to flip it for a quick buck. The mint should just mint to demand rather than create this likely artificial scarcity.
Order placed..waiting room started at 1 hour but only actually took about 20 minutes.

That's part of the appeal and adds another layer of excitement to the release.

ordered placed, but what in the world is going on. I added to bag and then it wouldnt let me checkout because of the HHL, which i havent exceeded. Then it removed it from my bag. what a cluster.

How quickly do email order received notices usually come?
My Email from the Mint confirming my order had the same time stamp of when I placed my order, 9:13am. I was still on the order screen when I received the order acknowledgment email

10 minutes max, it's over!
Got mine 10 minutes after it went live.
Throw a coin enough times, and suppose one day it lands on its edge.
I've gotten in, and ordered, within 5 minutes on all three. Maybe I'm just real lucky?
How many were available 12:00?
Current estimated wait time is 13 minutes. Some people might be left out.
