Hate you Mint

Yup; seeing same thing here... staying optimistic for 1x ASE

 

Crashed before the sale even started, what a joke the Mint has become!!

 

After sweating, swearing, waving my fists at my monitor, and foaming at the mouth, able to get my hands on 1x ASE! Didn't even bother trying to look at the gold...

Keep refreshing and keep your fingers crossed folks!

 

Probably already being graded by PCGS and NGC as we speak!

 

I got banned because I had to keep hitting refresh to get it to load. Too many attempts. Bastards.

Yeah, I think they'd get a lot less ill will if they'd just implement an actual lottery, instead of this game-show approach where you have to draw the lucky refresh, then go through the Captcha Bicycle Challenge, then surmount the steep grease-coated multi-step checkout...

 

I got one ASE.
Wasn't really planning on it...but I got the email and I'm sitting at work with nothing to do.

 

I’ve never had an issue getting in the mint’s shop and ordering limited items. But this time, I get “banned” from the store. Really?

 

Now I'm banned?

 

It's amazing that this day in age, their website is still such garbage. Outsource a few consultants & developers who will point you to Amazon's cloud and build a website that functions like it was designed sometime after 1998...

 

I'm banned. Cannot get in. I even tried logging in from cell phone on 4G using a VPN completely anonymous IP address and still said I was banned from an IP address I haven't used. Not even signed in. What a joke.

 

I was in and hit the 'Add to Cart". It locked up and banned or "Rate Limited" me. What the heck is that.

 

I got SLV at 12:19 so keep trying until you get the product sold out notice, good luck to all, I think the big prize most are after is the $2600 gold?? so keep trying if you want the silver!!

 

Cripes, I just got one at 12:30

 

Echo JCK above. Persistence fellows.

 

I was getting the banned thing, but clicking through it was a CloudFire thing. I tried going to just usmint.gov and worked my way through the site that way and it worked, albeit slowly.

 

and it's why this election does not surprise me, everything our Governments touch turns to...….

 

It's not worth it for them to spend the money on upgrading everything. There's 1 maybe two products a year that get the excitement that drives a lot of traffic that crashes it, the rest of the time their site works just fine.
