On hold order status at US mint?

I just checked my order status at the US mint. My Silver Proof Sets have a status of: In Process, but the Plat I ordered says: On Hold. There is no explanation of that in their help features. Anyone else get this or know what it means? Hopefully they don't renig orders made today and stop selling the plat sets like they did for gold. If they stop selling them, I hope they fulfill my order as is, and not with an increased price.

    Hmm... looks like my platinum order from yesterday is on hold as well. I'm hoping it's just till payment clears...

  • They have done this to me in the past. I have had to call and veruify that I actually placed the order. I think they do it to guard against credit card fraud.

    Yep, you get the upgrade to Fedex shipping, but they take that time for verification.

    No big deal.

    What will FedEx do if you're not home?

    You have to go and pick the coins up at their designated pick up place.....

    I have to do this everyyear.....

    They will try to re-deliver. My Fedex place in on the way to work. So when I get a notice I call them to hold it and pick it up the next day.
