My delivery date is 8/8/13 also, I didn't get a chance to order this morning, totally forgot. Will I be able to get any destination from PCGS with this delivery date?
You may not have been able to get into the web site or get through on the phone anyway even if you had remembered. I tried to order this morning via the website and couldn't get in. I did notice the shipping date change from June 17 to August 8. So does this mean that the people who did order first will get the June shipment?
Already backordered till august. Don't think they set any low cutoff on production. The TV coin dealers must have bought a large amount of initial shipment.
Ordered 3 sets. One for me,Fathers Day present and a coworker wanted one. Also will get a graded set down the road
Why dont you just buy a fourth set now and submit it yourself and probably save some money? Unless of course you are specifically targeting a grade, then i understand. Ive thought about buying a regular proof eagle, and an uncirculated one as well and displaying all four designs together. I think that would be cool looking.

Love the idea of the 4 coin set for display!!:thumb:
140,648 were ordered on the first day. http://mintnewsblog.com/2013/05/west-point-set-orders-reach-140648/
Thanks for the update. Wow that is quite a sale for the first day. I was in the dentists chair when it went on sale. A friend of mine ordered 2 sets for me along with 2 silver and clad proof sets. Said he placed the order at 1202 Eastern time and finally got checked out at 1320 Eastern. Glad he took one for the team for me.
Anyone know where Mint News Blog gets its information. As far as I know they are not associated with the mint, so this information should be available to the public.
No wonder the US Mint site was bogged down. This is worse than the 2011 opening day (and only day) of sales.
Does anyone know the actual mint sales on the 2011 ASE set? If I recall, it was like 99,9xx. I assumed that some got returned and destroyed.
When does the mint actually charge you for your purchase? I placed my order Thursday but my bank account hasn't shown anything coming out from the mint yet? I did receive my confirmation email though
Has anyone here noticed that this Reverse Proof coin will be W mint marked? The first 2 are both P Mint, the 2012 is S Minted and now the 2013 is pictured having a W mint mark. My prediction is that there will be plenty of extra sets in the marketplace on this one and I am only buying 1.
