    Looks like I'm out. Couldn't get a V75 even though I refreshed at 11 a.m. on the dot. Got bogged down and refreshed too many times now I'm locked out from logging into my account. That's a new one. I bet the tv show guys didn't get locked out.

    happening to everyone, they blocked my IP address, trying from my cellphone, and it has a captcha that won't populate either or go past it if I can get it to populate...... total nonsense.

    I'm about done with the U.S. mint entirely.

    I picked up one ASE. took forever to get through the payment process. Just like the 2019 ASE reverse proof.
    The gold is out of my budget.

    They don't get any special treatment for these their site just isn't designed to handle any sort of traffic

    I can't get in at all. Can't even look at the product schedule to see if it's sold out.

    well I guess they don't want or need collectors business anymore.

    Cloudflare apparently won't let me login or add one to a cart from any device I own...... the cloudflare traffic control is the new addition. and whats shutting everyone down because the site is still crashing with the cloudflare speedbumps which is triggering IP blocks in case of bots.


    Your loss U.S. Mint...... I am sure there will be thousands of people just like me fed up with your nonsense.

    You might be right, but, seriously, this is no time to be defending the Mint.

    Their site is just garbage, always has always will be. It's really not defending them to just point out when a criticism isn't warranted. There's plenty of things to trash about their site without people making things up. It's a low volume site that crashes everytime there's something popular and they actually get some traffic

    I just tried to open the catalog and their website died. Didn't even make it to the items page. The mint's site is absolute garbage lol.

    Someone should get his @$$ fired for this gross incompetency.

    BTW, after nearly a half hour I DID manage to check out via my phone. ONE thing that seemed to help was manually typing in a credit card rather than selecting one I had on file. Maybe give that a try if you keep getting blocked at checkout.

    Oh, and their CAPTCHA images are absolute RUBBISH! So dark and weird angles you can't even see WHAT'S there. I'm so angry right now . . . I better come back and post later.

    Yes, I have to agree with you. I'm cancelling my subscriptions at this point. Totally fed up that their answer to bandwidth was to set this mess up which then blocked innocent singular collectors.

    I see the gold is sold out. I can't see the silver.
    I wonder if this will end up with insane premiums of the 2019-S Enhanced reverse proof. Prolly not.
