Same Boat

I'm in the same boat too. Mine were shipped same time 9/3 and since then nada. Also arranged them to be sent to PO Box to make sure that if they were "lost" it would be easily proven.

I do really find it ridiculous that there is so much variability in when people receive their shipments or by what carrier. As a business model, this is horribly run. A few lost shipments and the whole profit margin is shot, no?

I am waiting until 10/3 but I have my form all filled out and ready to mail should my shipment not arrive by 10/3 (which is the absolute date the Mint has told me to wait)

Thanks for all the amazing things I've learned here. Now I want my money.
