Wow. My order went through. I was actually able to get one of these things! I can't believe it.

 

this is crap! I cant get to the first page on the site, cant get them on the phone either!

 

Congrats JDS!

Keep trying boxerchip ... persistence will pay off but waiting until later tonight or tomorrow may not...

 

Hang in there all...it took me just over an hour total.

 

Still trying. I have one in my cart. Keep pressing the quick checkout button but it doesn't do anything.

 

It took me nearly an hour just to get into the site and another long time to login. If you don't get to the site within a reasonable time or get a blank screen, hit the X button next to the address bar (NOT THE ONE TO CLOSE THE BROWSER!!!!) and try connecting again. There are good connections to the server and bad ones. I got on the site several times, but with "errors on the page" and could not logon until I was on the site without errors.

Once you get a good connection, it should go through.

Once you are logged in, however, DO NOT hit the X button, Instead, if it is not responding, hit the "Continue Checkout" button or whatever leads to the next step.

The delay times are long in between page loads so give it time if you are not seeing errors.

 

I avoid extra clicking in the process, just puts you behind others already behind you.

 

Congrats PennyGuy!

 

I just go kicked out. I was trying to check out. I've had it.

 

Well, I can't believe it... I actually got through to order one of these! I've been trying for 1 1/2 hours and I FINALLY got through! Patience is a virtue, I suppose, especially when dealing with the US Mint!!!

 

It depends what part of the process you are in.
If you haven't reached the site yet, refreshing can give you a new try at a connection. It worked for me.

If you're in the middle of checkout, by all means, don't go back!

 

should I be trying to connect to the main page or the catalog page?

 

catalog!

 

the https://catalog.usmint.gov/ link is what worked for me to get started.

 

An hour and a half and I finally placed order, all I need to do now is wait for the mint to send me an email in a couple weeks telling me I’m sorry but the LN6 is no longer available, I should change my user name to Eeyore!:crying:

 

ayyyy +1 for a fast response from a fellow Virginian wish me luck!

 

Well, after 95 minutes, i allegedly got my order placed. Of course it says backordered which always scares the cr@p out of me; fear i will get an email saying 'Whoops, we sold more than we had, YOUR CANCELLED!'....
