Thanks for the heads up. :thumb:

 

Coin News.net - Reporting 2200 orders placed between 2:00pm and 3:00pm were cancelled ! The article states that the mint is working to correct the problem.

 

I haven't read the last few days of this thread but wanted to chime in since I just received an interesting email. I was able to place my order about 2 hours after the ASE's went on sale. After I placed the order I went to lunch and basically forgot about it. On Monday I realized I never received an email confirmation. I logged into my US Mint account and noticed there was no order. I called and talked to customer service and they had no answer for me why it wasn't there. I resubmitted my order but who knows when I'll get it. I got the following email a few minutes ago:

On Friday, November 19, 2010, at noon (ET), the United States Mint released the highly popular American Eagle Silver Proof Coin. Unfortunately, because of the high order volume from this product launch, we encountered some technical difficulties that led to the deletion of some Internet orders. These orders were placed between noon on Friday, November 19, and 7:30 p.m. (ET) on Sunday, November 21. We apologize and deeply regret the inconvenience.
Our records indicate that the order below was among those deleted.

A darned shameful occurrance and customer service nightmare! Here's the link for those looking to read up on this story:
US Mint Accidentally Deletes 2,200 Proof Silver Eagle Orders from CoinNews.net [11/24/10]

 

Now watch ~ there SOLD OUT !

 

Wow! They better send you a free mint set or something special as an apology.

The U.S. Mint has really flubbed up the customer service with this product release and is double-timing to correct these wrongs.

 

Great..My order was at 2:23. I still show the order in there but it says your order request is on hold under the order status. Whatever that means. I know the credit card charge is pending but actually hasn't got charged by the mint yet.

 

This evening's FedEx SmartPost update has my two orders having reached the Edison, NJ location for USPS local delivery. This puts my ealges within 30 miles or so of their final destination... No postal delivery tomorrow on the holiday, maybe Friday or Saturday will be the day, but still showing 11/29 Monday as my estimated date of delivery.

 

An order I placed at 8:30 PM on the 19th shows "in process", but each day that goes by finds the expected shipping date being pushed back by a day.

 

Chris, my order originally showed the 26th as the expected delivery date. You can imagine my surprise when I received them yesterday. Hopefully you'll get yours Friday.

 

My fingers and talons crossed in anticipation of an early delivery. :smile

 

Received 95 of 100 on the 23rd and 24th. Off to NGC for grading! Last 5 are floating around with USPS...

 

another future bullion issue.
