Guess since they already left people like HSN rip us off, they want a slice of the pie. It will not surprise me if no matter how quick we are on the 12:00 start time that all regular orders will be on back order so HSN and others get to stick it to us again. Just me venting frustration.

I still think the offer from HSN isnt bad at all. You get 2 slabbed coins and 2 FREE submissions..I bought it and dont feel ripped at all. AND I dont have to worry about getting the next design. Only thing is I really dontunderstand the rolls. Kinda odd to grade a whole roll at MS65 or better..It actually says or better, so there is some or betters in there? O well. I like it

Email from mint they are backordered again till 4/4. Still believing they are going to shaft us. I placed order right at 12:00 . This whole series of cents is really jerkin my chain. Joe:hanged:

Anyone get theirs yet. 4/4 looks not so good, still in stock and supposedly reserved.:LOL_Hair:

My order at the Mint says the same thing. If they are in stock and reserved, then they should have already been sent to the distributor to me sent out. I understand about there were tons ordered, so maybe the mail is the problem. Have you tried calling them about your order??

She told me the same thing on the phone. Seems odd they never emailed a different date. Not surprised though about the whole thing though.

Mint says my order is still in process. Also haven't gotten a new backorder date; but the other items were shipped.

Yesterday I checked at the mint website and they are sold out!
Good thing I ordered earlier. That does not mean I will get a set, but I can hope.

Okay, while I regret not ordering these rolls from the Mint (as I was too busy to notice they were for sale), I feel like I am missing something...or I suppose eBay bidders have just gone batty. These rolls - have bids at or above $70 (as the link below demonstrates) - what gives?
Are these going to be traded this high a year from now or will they be back down to something like $15?

Well I put a set on ebay. Let's see what they go for. I will donate some of the sale to the LCR.

Does anyone know where they will be releasing the third design? I live in Illinois...and I plan on going if it is here. It seems like Springfield would make sense.

The rolls are hitting the public though. Wife found one coin at the local filling station.
