    Expected shipping date is in when it should arrive or when they are starting to go out?
    I would imagine that means when they start to go out.
    What method of shipping are the using?
    From their website:

    All custom coins go out USPS Flat Rate Priority.

    The 6th is a Sunday, so it's kind of weird. But the 7th is probably when they'll be put in the mail to you. USCC will do everything humanly possible to do it as quick as possible, but the factory has to make @400 coins, so there is only so much that can be done. They are being made NOW, and USCC will try very hard to get them to you in as timely a fashion as possible. Darn those unexpected delays! #shakefist

    Ok, this is the last call for coins. USCC has the full amount they've ordered so far in their store. Once these are gone, they're gone. They ordered 400 for us in total. If you want a coin, my suggestion is that you order them now.

    just making sure, but if we ordered a bunch of coins before the last minute changes, we don't need to re-order them, right?

    Negative sir, while the orders have been placed they're only just now working on manufacturing them since the die was approved.

    No re-ordering necessary. Get stoked on having some awesome coins coming.

    If you mean the 2nd proof, you don't need to worry about that part. That was just a proof made from the die that will put the details onto the metal wafers (blanks). Once we approved the 2nd die, they started making all the coins that were ordered.

    That's it, coins are all sold out. The final tally comes to 400 coins ordered. This weekend they will be busy packing up coins to ship to you.

    I don't think they're e-mailing every invoice for this project. They've got over a hundred of them right now. If you need confirmation on the order or wish to double check your billing/shipping info, I'd suggest giving them a call.

    Someone PM'd me about it before your post.
    I wish I had another coin to trade to you.
    I will have to see if they hold up to their word.
    If they don't then I will definitely message you.
    thank you sir for the offer so far.

    ok I got emailed a shipping notice. I tried ordering twice and once was rejected, or so they said but it seems like I might have uhm... more than a few extra coins... so if people need some I might be able to help with that if I get as many as it sounds like I will =\


    Ok whatever I can share I will, might have them all off being promised now though... that is all.

    Just want to put it out there that I ordered 3 coins and actually only need two... I ordered 3 so I had a backup in case one did not turn out well.

    If anyone missed the boat and is interested I'd be willing to trade one for a Pax Prime one, or even sell it to someone straight up for $5.

    If you wanna arrange a meet up at PAX somewheres we could probably do that, avoid the shipping charges.

    PS: The people who got their shipping notices yesterday, did you check out with Paypal or Google? I checked out with Google and do not have a shipping notice as of right now.

    DM me if interested!
