Confirmation received on my order at 14 minutes after opening. Order number 4130xxx. My brother's order got booted less than 10 minutes later.
I initially got a backorder notice to May 6th. I just proceeded to get my order in as quickly as possible and it went through. Received my confirmation email shortly after. As soon as I got done I went to place another order and it said product unavailable. Had to remove product from the cart. I think the website got hammered. Lucky it worked as well as it did.

I'm not interested in these but I did call the Mint and was just told that their current inventory in Memphis is gone but they will be getting more. She asked if I wanted to be on their reminder list when they arrive and I said no thanks.
Give it a week or two.......when the returns start coming back, they'll be available again. Just keep checking the mint site daily for that eventuality. Also too, there's more that a few 'Paul Revere' types on here who will sound the alarm when these pieces become procurable again.
I'm surprised our good moral friend Kurt isn't on here letting people have a piece of his mind about making a profit on these
Would I do as a stand-in? Sorry, having a hard time getting worked up enough about it. We ourselves - here and at other fora - created the frenzy. Might as well live with it.
Actually, for anyone who wanted one for the right reasons (collecting) congrats dear fellows..........
We might disagree on a few things, but in my opinion you are nowhere near the level or Kurt. All he does is call people names, etc. It is a lot more peaceful when he does not chime in. Back to the main subject... I bought a few boxes to flip to the big guys. It's hard to know whether to take my $250 profit and run, or hold off a bit since it looks like they might have sold out. I think I will be splitting the middle... taking some guaranteed profit, and also keeping a few for down the road.
