had I known I'd have fired up the BBQ

 

I just completed my order for the new west point American Eagle set I logged on to the US Mint site at 11:58 and waited until 12:03 to try and place my order. very long story short at 12:51 I was able to complete my online order. I bet the poor people at the Mint received at least 10,000 orders in the first 45 min.

well at least I know that sometime after 5/17/2013 I will receive my coins I just hope they look as great in person as they do in there catalog

Happy collecting and God Bless...Mike

At least they won't sell out over the next 4-weeks, as the 20th & 25th Anniv.sets did in just hours.

I think it's 6/17 ship date. I too ordered at 12:03 and my web browser just sat there for over a half hour. I got a confirmation e-mail before my browser even loaded. It actually never did finish, and I can't log into my account. They are getting slammed right about now!, how many do you think they will sell total? 200K ,300K a million?

If I get a set I'll just wait and get one already graded, but not the ER labels....MAILMAN

I collect the ER labels also. Don't really know why but I guess it is a strike against purchasing pre 2006 Eagles as they are hard to find in FS so it keeps the cash stash for other coin interests.

When I logged in to order mid afternoon, there was a note on the home page about the browser being slow.

 

I only took me about 5 minutes to complete the transaction. I bought 2 sets and have a ship date of 6/17.

I am going to wait and order from MCM and get the ER slabbed SAEs. They had a great price for the 2012 2 coin set and it included all the Mint's original packaging.
