Maybe they're going back to 99 boxes per order?

Hey- a guy can dream, can't he??

Instead of speculating here, perhaps someone would care to actually call the Mint to ask what is happening. Please let us know here what you are told. Thanks.

Maybe we can have ten people call. This way we will have ten different answers and we can pick the one we like the best!

This thread is entertaining, watching people proclaim that the sky is falling.

I wonder if the delay has anything to do with the debt ceiling?

rookie questions...

sorry to bother everyone here.... but i have couple simple questions....

i was just wondering if this coin mint program had limits... i read somewhere that you can only buy 2 boxes of 250 every X days.... i was wondering what those limits were....

and also...as far as the ability to have my AMEX HH card (regular, not surpass) treat these as regular purchases...or if it doesnt accumulate points....

i have both amex HH and citi visa HH......

also, does the program count per person, or household address?...

thanks for all the help.

If you try using the search feature, I'm pretty sure every single one of your questions has been answered previously on FT.

Make that 5 people. I've read it since it's inception - after the first mention on twitter.

Well gave it a shot, did my normal 10 days order, will see how it goes I guess! I got my order from 10 days ago last Thursday, wonder if that's the last one I'll see in a while!
