How bizarre. Perhaps people had buyers regret yesterday, or, the RM are just all over the place.

I got a despatch for mine about an hour after I ordered yesterday, I am hoping these were coins reserved for replacements and not returns, that or re-strikes anyway.

Maybe these are plain edge. 😆

Have received no confirmation of my purchases yesterday & nothing's showing in open orders? But money has been taken from my bank account. Anyone else in same boat & should I be concerned?

Nah they put a reserve on straight away, if they don't ship for a while the reserve will drop after 5 days.

I didn't get a confirmation email. But I did receive a dispatch email about an hour ago. I am sure it will be fine.

Well just called them up & apparently my orders didn't go through. 😕

I thought I was fine since the money had been taken but nope. Bloody 2nd market for me too now.

Thanks, I've messaged him but it's still at an inflated price unfortunately.

I have managed to order the 5oz, but the email states:

If I do get it, I will let you have the 1oz I ordered at cost (plus postage of course).

That's very generous of you. Cheers! 😀

Your welcome mate, I would not have ordered the 1oz if I had known I would get the 5 but as it is already showing as despatched too late to cancel it.  would hope its for you to keep and not flip of course

It's definitely to keep. I collect both historical & modern RM coins & know I'm going to be collecting this whole series so would be nice to not have to pay 2nd hand prices for every release! Thanks again. Just message me whenever your ready to conclude things. 😇

Well i can't wait for the queue moan, the sold out moan, the dealers have got some for above rrp moan, waiting for 6 months for the coin to arrive moan, and finally the QC moan. 

 

Spot the odd one out above. Every point is justified but one. 

You missed the "my coins disappeared from my basket whilst I was trying to pay" moan - yep, both my 2oz and 5oz silvers gone whilst I was jumping through the new security confirmation hoops set up by my blinking bank. Very annoying especially as I was right at the front of the queue

[westminstrel]

I still have hope the 1 Oz silver Henry VII may come back in stock suddenly. 😆

I did want one and don’t yet feel compelled to pay secondary market prices.

Or maybe these are all the returns for QC issues.  The RM took out some polishing paste and a cloth, fixed the coins as best they could, and then put them back in the capsules.  Voila!  More inventory!

Oh Oh I have one too, when checkout takes you back to the basket page and you keep checking out not realising its charging your credit card each time till it's maxed out and you end up with charges on your card that dont drop for 5 days and still no coins, had that for the Henry release

Yep, that horrible feeling when it says processing payment just to take you back to the proceed to payment page in your basket. It's so shoddy, as if they don't have enough money to invest in a proper checkout system that reserves coins in your basket and allows you a bit of time to checkout! Along with all the ongoing QC issues I'm seriously considering jacking in buying anything from RM

I've been saying that since the start of last year, I'm still queueing for the big releases though
