<p>[QUOTE=&quot;motts, post: 2212854, member: 75419&quot;]i was a little pissed off yesterday. i got on the mint&#039;s website at 12 pm on the nose, added a set to my cart and for the next 15 minutes tried to check out. i used 2 laptops and i still could not get my order through. i tried checking out as a guest and that did not work. i tried calling and the phone line was busy until after 1pm. when i saw the notice at 12:15 that they were sold out i saw red. i went on ebay at 12:30 and they were already on sale there of course for 200 or more and some were labeled presale. how do these people know they are going to get a set. i am a collector who wanted 1 measley set and it just makes me so angry that you go on ebay and some of these greedy dogs have multiple sets for sale. i think the mint needs t come up with a better system for sets with low mintages and high demand in order to give everyone a fair shot at getting one. maybe they should make it 1 per household because the kennedy set is going to be in high demand. maybe they should have a reserve sale before the actual sale date and if you are lucky enough to get a reservation number then you can purchase a set when they go on sale. i wasn&#039;t even aware of these sets until i saw it on a show on tv. i have signed up with the mint for email notice and snail mail notice but i got nothing on the truman set or the 100 dollar high relief gold coin( which i have purchased). i just think the mint needs to do a better job of dealing with collectors and not worrying about the greedy dealers who are only interested in profit . i finally won a truman set on ebay last night for 162 dollars and change[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
