Is it over the weekend that the 1.9T stimulus might pass?

Dump before then pump next week?

Not bad.  I just ordered one £1271 inc postage.

Biden straight to business with an airstrike.   I was expecting gold to react but nothing yet.

That looks like a scene from every bar in Blackpool I've been in to.

As the site operator, when do you allocate a coin to a customer? Presumably when he adds it to basket, but do you then deduct that 1 piece from available stock immediately, when he hits "proceed to payment", or when payment completes?

 

Yes, when it's added to the basket.  Five failed transactions to pay meant I was early to add to basket but their failure to take payment meant that my payment was late so my order is now cancelled.

It should be 'add to basket' reserves then there is a countdown to complete the order like bullion dealers or concert ticket sales.

"It's run by halfwits."

Are you exaggerating?🙂

 

Yep,, too much credit.   I should have said no-wits.

I can't think of another example in which a website allows an item to oversell then the company has to cancel orders.

I don't see how a company can operate so badly without something suspicious going on.

I've emailed them just for the disappointing reply I might get.

The last time I complained was about their packaging when they put my 2014 proof Britannia just into a jiffy bag and the presentation box got creases.

They said the coin packaging was just to protect the coin.

It's run by halfwits.

How hard is it for a website to reserve your items once in the basket?

Six attempts to pay meant my confirmation email wasn't until 09.21 

That's the cancellation email I received.

Translation:

''by the time we received your order for processing, the item was no longer available and is now off-sale''

''Those six attempts to pay were all your fault and nowt to do with us''

''We are extremely sorry for any disappointment or inconvenience caused.''

''We got offered more money for these from a secondary dealer and other big customers so we thought we'd sell yours to them instead since you're just a pleb'' 

I had it in my basket twice and kept being removed

Its up a £750 now wow! How high will it realistically go? I mean this is insane, they could have their order canceled.

Well they know they can sell it to someone here for £1100

Is this one of you lot?

I coin per household thats what it read in the Q. 

1 coin type  what that might mean. 

Product type.   So it should be one of each product code.  One of each size should be fine otherwise it's daft.

Due to expected high demand for our latest Great Engravers release customers will be limited to one product type per household

Just to save this link for the future the search page wasn't subject to queuing.

That's where the screenshot came from before 9am.
