I received this via email today;
Dear Valued Mint Customer:
We are writing regarding your recent purchase in the United States Mint
National Wildlife Refuge System Centennial Program.
We regret the delays you have experienced with the shipping of your
order. The Eagle and Salmon Silver Medals along with the Eagle Bronze
Medal are currently shipping. The Elk Silver Medal is expected to ship
in late January and the Canvasback Duck Silver Medal will follow in late
February.
This is the first time the United States Mint has used laser technology
on one of its medal products. Therefore, each medal is carefully
inspected to assure the highest quality. Unfortunately, the process is
taking longer than anticipated.
Once again, please accept our apologies. We appreciate your support and
look forward to serving you in the future.

They should be ashamed of themselves. They also should have done a full battery of tests and not offered this Lazer technology until they had it perfected.

We are writing regarding your recent purchase in the United States Mint
State Quarters Program.
We regret that one or two Quarter designs had artistic merit. This is the first time in recent memory
that the United States Mint has allowed this to happen. We work carefully to ensure that every
design is the utmost jumble of incomprehensible symbols and state outlines.
Unfortunately, a few interesting designs slipped through.
Please accept our apologies. We appreciate your support and
look forward to serving up some real bland Jefferson nickel reverses
to you in the near future.
Looks like another sorry year for SQ designs.
They all suck alot except the Iowa. Its.....not AS bad as the others IMO.
Michigan is the pits.
Is it up to the buyer to cancel the order or does Ebay monitor any sales that are over the limit?
Wow.
Now I've seen everything.
We ARE watching you.
