I previously ordered 5 of each and my checking (debit) was charged today. So what do I do? Order 5 more of each, silly!!

a long month... mostly my annoyance is coming from the delays with the UHR coins.... it seems they may be delaying high dollar value shipments due to recent losses. --->Link
Relevance here: Did you order 100? that's a few thousand. That could mean your order is delayed. {maybe, as it seems now}
Site is back to shipping 2/19 !?!?!?!?
I haven't found anything on the site for the cents either. I was disappointed. I'm waiting for a release date on them. 10,000 coin bags anyone?
on a UHR thread someone just posted their "shipped" e-mail for their Lincoln's:

Nothing on my uncirculated Lincolns however...no surprise there! Or my UHRDE!!! I had a feeling I'd get my Lincoln's before I ever got a peek at my UHR. According to the last e-mail from 'The Mint' on the subject, It was supposed to ship on 2/18/09...
considering all the "stories"from 800-USA-MINT, I'm not holding my breath....
After complaining about others receiving theirs but mine isn't slated to ship until Apr 1, I was just told that my credit card was put through and maybe monday they will ship and I'll have a tracking number.
and my CC co just confirmed a new pending charge in the proper amount.
an action actually taken!
OMG.
There is hope in the face of no hope!
Keep in mind that yesterday a rep told me in no uncertain terms that there were no Lincoln's in stock and wouldn't be until April 1.

Good luck with your unc. I looked at mine and decided not to send them in for grading ... to many minor ticks. ( No 70 potential in my unc batch ) On the other hand, I saw no flaws in 4 out of 5 proofs and those were mailed in for grading.

<< <i>Good luck with your unc. I looked at mine and decided not to send them in for grading ... to many minor ticks. ( No 70 potential in my unc batch ) >>
I screened them. 5 of the 6 are worthy of slabbing.
I know of 2 other orders (QTY:99 each) that were ordered before my order of 10 that have not shipped - the CC has not even been hit yet. This is not because I am a new customer as I have orders in excess of $10k that have cleared regularly within 3 days of ordering. Maybe larger lots are being held back for some reason - still doesnt excuse the non-FIFO rule though, but is a potential explanation.
JC
P.S. Same goes for the 2009 Presidential proof sets - I hear some people got these. I had a subscription for a large order and have not gotten these yet. In this case the mint rule is also FIFO but subscriptions are shipped first regardless.
I received 10 proofs and 2 MS Lincolns yesterday... They look good... I will go through them again, but did not see defects the first time. Can these be sent in for grading in their capsules?
Still have not received my Lincoln proof/unc Qty. 10 each. Order # 30969XXX. Credit card was pre-authorized on 02/17 and disappeared on 02/24. My only email estimated the ship date for 02/19. Every day I call the Mint and they cannot tell me why my Lincolns have not shipped only that they are "in process". This is the worst service I have ever experienced from any company in my entire life.
Are you glad you ordered the Unc. Lincolns? I'm trying to decide if i still want them now. I'm not all that impressed with the pics i've seen. The proofs on the other hand look great.

Read the wording on the web site right now:
Product will be available for shipping 03/04/2009
Oh... my bad.... "available" and "shipped" are two different things to these people.
anyway, I just called and a rep said the actual date is "Apr 1" and the web site is "wrong."
Oh.... want to know the excuse offered for the delay????
"high demand"

My coins left last Thursday through Fed X. Monday Fed X transferred them to the post office. The mailman dropped them off yesterday afternoon.
Keeping 2 of 2 Uncs.
I'm really amazed at the Mint's QC.
Not to mention I got 2 Presidential Proof sets......James Polk obverse had 1/2" x 1/8" of light scratches on obverse field.

Order #: 30975xxx First hour sometime
Shipped: 2/26
just got the e-mail
lots of proof coins with smooth/shiny areas on reverse parts that should be frosted.
one with a spot and a 1/8" wire strike through with the wire still there and partially sticking up.
another with a die crack or strike through.. haven't closely examined it.
some have rust-red fibers on the coins.... some one the outside of the capsule. these fibers are definitely on some of the coins.
I'm going to have to look at all of them again more closely.
QC?? This is the philly mint... guess it's not surprising.
