The Mint cancelling orders

There was a wave of US Mint cancellations for the army privy coin yesterday. I had 3 orders cancelled and it was because I was “jigging” my address. What “jigging” means is instead of just typing in ‘123 Main St,’ you can type in like ‘123 Mainn Street Apt 1.’ They didn’t care about jigged addresses for the silver flowing hair coin last year, but they started to care for the gold flowing hair. And they really cared about the army privy coin. The funny thing is that if your main account was using ‘123 Main St,’ it also got cancelled along with the jigged orders, like the US Mint just said, “Oh you want to be cute? I’ll just axe them all.” USUALLY most retailers will let you keep the main/first order, but the MINT’s not playing around anymore.

Also if you used the same billing info (real or jigged) but shipped to a new unique address, that was also cancelled. I think BOTH orders cancelled. Going forward, it looks like you’ll need a new address for both billing and shipping addresses.

They don’t seem to be looking too hard at IP addresses yet though since the address thing seems to have wiped out a lot of people who were trying to order multiples. Funny enough, they also didn’t lift the household limit. They used to lift the limit after 24 hours, but this time, it’s sticking for good. Anyway, if you have a new address, look for restocks.

  1. 37,777 coins were available at 1:30 pm EDT today on the Mint’s website (Opening of the sale).

    4,454 available right now at 6:30 pm EDT.

    HHL is STILL just one per address.

  2. They definitely went all out. And canceled every possible duplicate order. Wonder if i try to reorder on a canceled account to a new address if that will stick. Wondering how smart they are.

    Even if you catch a restock. A lousy one per account.

    The mint now has over 50% of canceled orders i would imagine.
