    << <i>Oh Crap!

    I ordered 4 more 2008-W SAE's on 5/3 (Saturday) and they arrived today!

    Stupid mint screwed up the order with 3 of the coins being the reverse of 2007! image



    Whats a guy got to do to get honest to goodness 2008-W SAE's that have the CORRECT Reverse on them! image >>



    hey Ike.. how did you place a small <$300.00 order on 03 May and get it today?.. did you order a bunch of other stuff along with it, so they upgraded it to expepooped Fedex?.. i placed an order for 2 ASEs the same day and they just shipped them today by Parcel Post by way of Jupiter, tied to the back of a snail.. c'mon fess up.. but don't worry, i'm sure both of mine will be 08/08s.. and i'll gladly sell you one for $30.00 plus $21,000.00 shipping.. image

    Edited to add.. just saw you posted again and said you paid for Fedex.. man, that's what i call faith.. that extra money you paid to get'em fast could've bought you a teaspoon of gasoline!..

    I added the invoice to my post just to keep the skepticizm to a minimum. Note the 5/07/08 date in the upper right corner.

    Looks like the smaller orders are the best bet now. I would not be surprised if the mint in there never ending quest for fairness have been distributing them through the small orders so the big greedy dealers don't get them all.
    Gold and silver are valuable but wisdom is priceless.

    If no one else will say it, I will

    YOU SUCK.

    This is more proof that the Mint does not complete the orders as received. My order which was placed on 4/29 was mailed today.

    Too late for an FS for me but no sooner did I list one of those that arrived today than it sold for a $250 BIN. image

    Exactly what are the raw ones going for anyway?

    in your case.. $250.00..

    that's exactly the questions you should have asked BEFORE you listed it.. {{giggle}}..

    you probably could've gotten $300.00+ for it..

  • Gerber make a plastic kids spoon that has a handle just the right shape for "pooping" these things out of the packaging. --Jerry

    I use my Gerber Guardian, is that OK?

    The ASE's just pop right out when I show it to the coin!

    Different Gerber...but the one I referenced has a nice rounded plastic handle that doesn't scratch anything. Yours would be better strapped to your ankle when going to a coin shoppe in a less desirable part of town. image--Jerry

    little baggies for slabs.. i just went over to Michaels (the craft supply store filled with women buying stuff no one needs.. to take back to their Martha Stewart Living homes and sit around working on little projects while the old man is stuck in traffic in his Mercedes..) .. and bought a box of 200 or 250 3" x 5" "Bagettes".. they're 1" taller than the slab baggies that JMRC uses, but the store is within spitting distance of where i'm sitting.. there's no white space label on them on which to write something like the ones he uses.. but they were $2.79 for the box plus tax, total $3.03.. i don't need a thousand of them..

    did i ever tell yawl how much i HATE Michaels?.. 2039820398023981 checkstands.. one open.. every woman with 203920938203981 items.. stood behind one watching life pass me by while the cashier rang everything up wrong, had to un-ring it all, call over the Manager to punch in some code.. ring it all up again.. i was waiting for the customer to reach into her steamer trunk purse and go fishing for a checkbook.. the line grows longer than Pirates at Disneyland on a Spring day.. "checkstand 12 is now open" blares out over the PA.. 20398203981 women run over there.. i stay put.. women who were three people in line behind me who raced over to checkstand 12 were out the door before me.. soon as they leave, they close checkstand 12.. i laugh to myself and get some weird stares..

    the only store i despise more than Michaels is Big Lots, formerly Pic'n'Save.. absolutely the slowest checkers in the civilized world.. these stores outta hang out a huge banner outside that says "Masochists' Day - EVERY Day!".. anyway, i got the Bagettes and they work fine for slabs, so if you don't need a thousand, and you can stomach Michaels.. there ya go..

    ONLY 1 out of almost 100. Divided amoung 6 orders placed on 4/30 and 5/1. All orders between 12 and 20 to get free Fedex.

    This Sucks !!!

    I did score some graded ones early, so I'm not totally out, but still.


    Edit to add: It was a thrill to find one. That was pretty cool, I have to admit. image

    my small bet says your one 08/07 was returned to the mint by someone who was cherrypicking for FS or ER only, b4 all heck broke loose

    I ordered 99 of these things back on April 21st and got a big giant goose egg and a sore index finger tip!!!! They were delivered around the 1st of May. I see I am coming close to my 100th post - I wonder what I should give away - any suggestions?

    That's a good idea but I do not have any. I do have a bunch of these silly regular 2008 uncirculated ASEs though. Ok - here are the rules:

    My 100th post will be in this thread
    The first person that says "get a life - 100 posts is nothing here!" will win an Uncirculated 2008 W ASE.

    Jeff

    P.S. This is kind of a secret giveaway in that no one knows about it but the "few" people that read this thread!!!!
