Yes, I actually just ordered 15 mins ago. It was painless compared to some of the other promos I've done. The salesman told me the coins would ship via USPS and it should take 10-15 days to process (not sure if that meant to ship or until they are delivered). I will update when my credit card is charged.

Honestly, I did not ask. The ad says 2011 for the ASE. I ASSuME the AGE will be 2011 as well. I will update if/when I get my order.

Thanks! Just called in and got through, very nice man took my order, no pressure on selling other things and he gave his name to me and said if I had any problems to call him back.

I'm getting high call volume. This seems like a great deal - are you sure you aren't getting auto-signed up for anything mentioned in the advertisement? I would hate to start getting mysterious monthly withdrawals from my bank account. :P

I just put the order through. Very easy, no pressure, though there were a lot of disclaimers at the end that I had to affirm, of course.

My only concern with this is getting spammed with phone calls, but otherwise it's a great deal.

i just tried, the guy asked me what was on page 20, i told him that i only have the page ripped out and that it is on page 5.

he then asks me whats on the back, i tell him i dont know and he says i cant sell you the coins.

im done with these little 2 ounce at a time deals anyways.

Quit calling during the day. Call at night and you will just get order operators and not the salesmen.

I agree, night time is the way to go. No salesmen, just info takers. I am going to jump on this tonight.

Tried last night at 9pm CST and was asked if I had the magazine in front of me as he was going to ask me some questions due to the high volume of bloggers, internet forum callers, etc. I have always called at this time of night and never had a problem. I wonder if they are all starting to wise up to what is going on.
I am heading into a bookstore later today and will find the magazine and then try the call again.

Had the same thing happen to me last night. If you find the magazine let us know what questions they ask you.

im pretty much done chasing these 1 and 2 oz deals, it had been several months since ive tried one of the deals let alone look at the thread. they need to specify in the advertisement that sales will only be made to holders of the magazine, we'll see what the BBB has to say about these guys :mrgreen:

Will do, I have been told by a guy I work with that the only way to get the DU magazine is be a member........which I guess he is. So he is supposed to bring me the magazine in next week sometime. We will see.

97guns,
It does get tiresome chasing these deals, but for $15+ below spot, I will continue for awhile. Just that much more I can leave for the kids.

I am sure it is not a common magazine

Howeve,r if one could find it at a magazine stand or book store, you could just call from their with the mag in hand.

I tried to go to the mag website and they have the articles viewable on the internet but it did not have the advertisements with the articles :-(

If the bookstore or magazine stand doesn't have it, try your local library, or try to get it through interlibrary loan (which is free).
