Message:: [QUOTE="Daggarjon, post: 587309, member: 4230"]over the last few years, it does seem to have slowly gotten worse each year, yes. But i think it does go back to what condor had said about production limits, order limits and everything else the mint does (as the collector base demands) to keep things 'fair'. As it tries to juggle all this, well ... who knows. im my history with the mint, it has NEVER been this bad. BUT, in my history with the mint, they didnt have to limit sales to just a few on each order - it used to be what, 500 coins maximum or something silly liek that??  In my history with the mint, they didnt auto backorder every order in an attempt to ensure each order was legit and was following the limit restrictions. And in my history with the mint, there wasnt such a demand for mint products - with the bullion coins selling at record paces, the law doesnt stipulate that the mint sell as many as the mint can sell .... it says to mint to meet public demand. So in a litteral attempt, the mint might have its hands busy trying to satisfy the law. I still think that while this recent 'delay' by the mint is unaccaptible, no matter what the mint did, folks wouldnt like it. they are in a lose-lose scenario.[/QUOTE]
