[QUOTE="Good Cents, post: 5002234, member: 100720"]I hear you. And after what I went through attempting to get the SILVER V75 Eagle, it makes ZERO sense to me that the GOLD were sold out after 7 minutes. It took MORE than 7 minutes to: 1 - Log in from scratch (after having been logged in and getting booted out once the clock hit noon) 2 - Go through that Capcha Boat/Car guessing game at least twice (!) 3 - Enter your payment info after the website suddenly didn't have it anymore after it had it a week earlier 4 - Get through the Error messages that said you were "Banned" from the site (huh????!!). I, too, suspect there was either: a - Some nefarious back-deal going on; or b - Some computer people who figured out how to "hack" and get around the system that the rest of us non-computer people were using. Either way, it was unfair in the extreme. I'm going to complain to my Congress-person and my 2 Senators. This is the [B]United States Mint [/B]- the place that prints our Federal Coinage and Federal Currency. It's not the "Frankin Mint" or eBay. And the systems used by the U.S. Mint need to be FAIR FOR ALL.[/QUOTE]
