How did you guys receive the coins so fast? I ordered the 1/10 oz uncirculated a few days ago but it says it won't ship until sometime in august. I had to choose their 1-2 week shipping service, for 4.95 as its all I could afford. In the mint FAQ it says something about it being upgraded (the shipping) if you buy a gold item. Not sure how this works though..

The 1/10ths were gone in 2 days from what I recall. You need to wait for the next wave.....August 11th at this juncture. That's why if you want a modern issue, you should buy on day one!!!!

ps. For $4.95 I had next day service. >>
How'd you get next day service for 4.95? >>
I bought 1 each of the proof and Unc 1/4oz.....took the bill over $500 ...time for FedEx.
The Mint has a working relationship with FedEx....$4.95 next day service if over $xxx
edited to add: Under $300 usually goes USPS pony express.
My Gold Buffalo Proof set came today. I've taken some pictures. The relative scales of my pictures are all the same so you can get an idea of the sizes. But, like usual, they are kind of huge images.

BTW Rob, did you see the pit on the indian's cheek on my Unc. 1/4 oz??
Go back a page or two.

Wow, that is kind of annoying once you point it out, I would probably return it too.
Perhaps rgCoinGuy or Spacemonkey can help out.....oh, Rob??? (Straight from the Dick Van Dyke Show)
This is a collector's series, not a flipper's series no doubt!!!

Also if you have a P.O. box it goes registered which is even slower.
I'll start with the 1/10th ounce piece.
Followed by the 1/4 ounce piece.
Can you see where I am going with this?
The 1/10oz. is fantastic, the 1/4 oz. appears a bit grainy on the devices for some reason.
edited to say: Perhaps the Macro pic is picking up the detail I have never seen before.
Thanks

Box of 20
I did get a 1/10 & 1/4 proof and a 1/2 unc.
More to the point, I have some sets still sealed in the Mint box, a bunch of 70s, etc. I backed up the truck on these.
Of course, I sold about 40% of them in the early winter of 2009 at what I thought were nice profits. How I regret that......
I remember the emails from First Coin Source for PCGS MS and PF70FS sets for, I think, the high twos. Passed on them, of course :-(
