I'm sure glad I finally checked out the ole' forum!! I had wasted over and hour on the telephone when I finally got on the web site (at 10:45 PDT) I ordered both, it says backordered with a shipping date of 10/09/07 (that'll be the day!) It was very slow, about 20 mins!! NOw I keep my fingers and toes crossed, these are the spouse coins I'm really interested in!! NEVER GIVE UP!!!
sold out? the order number is already over 20,000. #26280000 to 26300000 plus. it looks like sold out.
Still not sold out yet, I think, am able to get through to the website very smoothly as this is written. Also no disclaimer written informing about additional orders taken in case of cancellations. I confirmed my order at 9:21 a.m. PST.
I just checked my order #'s and between the first and the second (about 10 minutes there were 4088 more orders placed!! Now I don't know if they were all for the Jeff's or not but that's a bunch!!!
Check to see if they are still accepting orders for the "Liberty" coins. If they are you probably have got a shot.
My order number is 262871xx, ordered both coins product ship date 9/24/07 but it also says "Backordered".
I think "Backordered" just means that they are not currently in stock - which we already knew (they won't ship until Sept/Oct). Someone please confirm that. Anybody have anything *except* backordered? Anxious, Wally
Proof listed as "Product will be available for shipping 10/30/2007." Unc listed as "Product will be available for shipping 09/24/2007." As of 2:23PM EST
Hmm..the waitlist notice is not in red this time so it was hard to notice. I wonder when they posted it.
I have a screen capture as of 1:40PM EST for the UNC and 1:23PM EST for the Proof. no "WAITLIST NOTICE" at those times.
Good to know ..it's sure there now. It's NOT in red this time so it was very hard to notice.

According to the US Mint my order was processed and is on backorder until October 4. At least I think that was the date. It was for the proof set and I guess no one will know for sure that they got the coin until you see the charge appear on your credit card. Can you believe that people are allready selling them on ebay even though they dont have the coin. Unreal! Good luck to everyone who got through and hope we all get what we ordered.:hail:
