My card got charged today, regretting the purchase a little with the fall in silver prices. Anyone think this will still be a good deal?

I used gift cards for all my orders. People are canceling their orders due to the big drop in silver, and then they cancel orders that are done legitimately with a gift card. They need to state that gift cards are not acceptable.

I'd bet someone at the mint noticed all the cancellations coming in and sent the word out to process them babies immediately

Nah... they just have to TELL you they've been shipped, so you can't cancel too. :lol:

I found out it was definitely theuse of the Visa Gift Card as to wehy they cancelled the orders. I bought 2 seperate Gift Cards for my Son and a friend and they cancelled the orders I guess because the cards did't have a specific name on them.

Just FYI - you CAN add an individual name to VISA gift cards to avoid this sort of problem in the future. It's a bit arduous, but can be done on a website after reading thru the FAQ and following directions carefully.

Now I'm pissed.

Charged my CC the fee and turned around an cancelled my order. Very sloppy handling of orders the mint sucks sweaty donky balls.

Order Status: Your order request has been cancelled.

Received my ATB Hotsprings coin yesterday. Very nice coin. Took a picture, but don't see a way to display the pic, except for a IMG URL. oh well.
Not sure if anyone has said this, but it looks like the mint might be putting up Yellowstone on 5/17, at least according to http://numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&ArticleId=19971 this site. I'll be getting that. The detail on Hotsprings is fantastic. A very 3D-ish look to it. I'll admit that this is the least favorite of the 2010 series for me, but amazing job that they did on this 5oz coin.

I am expecting mine to be delivered Monday, "By 10:30am" I have never seen UPS come forward with such an exact time. I'll start holding my breath at 10:30, so when it actually does arrive the knock on my door will recucitate me and I will not have spent my day off PO'd about how much I hate UPS. I'll update when I get it.

It appears that you can still get these from the mint right now...after all of the cancellations. It seems like they are selling for $375-425 on the bay

I use those Visa/AMEX giftcards online, and i ALWAYS put in the info before using them. Prevents CC fraud if one of them get's compromised.

I just signed for mine as well. I read in a link (somewhere on RC), about the Yellowstone Release date, that they have less than 1000 left of these.
