<p>[QUOTE="Numismania, post: 1230246, member: 28971"]Actually, with the bill to end the program in place, they know these aren't being used. Due to the Mints recent change in how the 'Direct Ship' program for Prez dollars are paid for (wire transfer, check...but NO CC's or debit cards), I think it shows us that they think it IS the collector's fault they sit in the Fed (the gov't thinking that it's our fault...but regardless, they'd be sitting somewhere, not in daily usage, no matter what....because noone likes/wants them). Due to our taking advantage of the loophole, a totally legal loophole, and getting miles and miles on our CC's, then dumping them right back into the machine, they seem to be blaming us collectors, given payment options. Who in the world mails checks, nowadays? We have become used to instant payment and expedited shipping. Noone is going to want to wait weeks to mail a check, then wait for it to clear and then have them ship, like it was way back when. It's '65-'67 all over again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
