Just got an email from the mint, looks like the rolls will be backordered until april 4th again, can the mint get anything right?

I cancelled my order because I didn't want to deal with the mint's crap anymore.

Isn't that what we all collect?

I'm sick and tired of dealing with their crap too, but where else can you get these rolls at that price? In my opinion it's worth the wait.

Right now? Nowhere. But when everyone gets their shipments and they hit eBay I'll bet that some go for very near, or even below issue price.

I canceled mine too. Maybe if enough people do the same, they will get the hint. Especially on this little cash cow, 800% profit scheme they had going.

I'm still waiting for Harrison rolls and Pres. proof sets I had on subscription. What a lousy business model this people are running.

True,true. I think I'm still going to wait it out. Maybe since everyone is canceling their orders I'll get mine quicker...

they might be having hard time finding them at the bank, like the rest of us.

Either the guy that sneezes on them to create milk spots is out sick or grinding wheels on the penny stirring machine is broken and they can't get them into the wrappers before the pre-treatment.
