<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1661062, member: 66&quot;]I learned patience back in the early 70&#039;s dealing with the US Mint.&nbsp; back then you ordered your proof sets in Feb, and paid by check.&nbsp; They would cash the check right away and you would wait and wait and wait.&nbsp; If you were lucky they would show up in Nov in time to be used for Christmas presents.&nbsp; If not they would usually arrive by the time it was time to order the next years sets in Feb again.&nbsp; Sometimes though something might sell out and you would finally get a notice that they sold out......and that they would be sending you a refund in a few months.&nbsp; And you would wait for that.&nbsp; No website you could check your order on, no phone number you could call, orders were not cancel-able by the buyer, they didn&#039;t take credit cards so no chargebacks, and since you were dealing with the government the usual rules about being able to cancel if the seller couldn&#039;t deliver within 30 days did not apply.&nbsp; They&#039;ve got you money and there was nothing you could do about it.&nbsp; You had no choice but to learn patience.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
