Stuck Waiting to Open My Package - HSBI Initiative

avatar

It feels like it's been at least a month since my last shipment of gold or silver. I've slowed down recently and almost forgot to close this one out with my dealer. When I got it, I was surprised at how big it was.

Sadly, with how crazy this week has been and with my wife getting sick, it's just sat up on the kitchen counter. I'm hoping I'll have time on Saturday to go through it and post pictures. Right now, it's just sitting there, taunting me.

I'm hoping that some of that weight is from a long overdue hoodie I preordered over 8 months ago from my dealer. There's also a 2.5oz silver gilded Sword of St. Michael coin I had preordered that is hopefully in there, since it wasn't in my last shipment.

HSBI Initiative

At least while I wait, I can at least have some fun here with my fellow #silvergoldstackers.

I'm giving away 10 HSBI. Anyone who answers my question will be put into a drawing, and I'll pick a winner once the post pays out.

What's the longest you've had to wait to open a package of gold or silver?

Oh no! That's terrible! 😬

Did she just set it off to the side in a spare room or something?

Answer: Maybe one week max but due to a holiday I left a buyer of my silver waiting a month!

Oh that sucks, hope your wife is recovered now! We've had a few weeks of illness here too. First my daughter and then it was my turn and I'm personally just recovered.. Hopefully we're good to go for the rest of the winter :)

Let me think about the longest wait, I believe that was for the two coins I ordered from the Royal Spanish mint.. They mentioned on their site that there was a delay in orders but not how long. My order was still being processed a month later and when I contacted them they told me that they were now processing orders from 2 weeks before my order date so another 3 weeks or so was probably going to be added to the wait.

Pretty shitty but at least they arrived at some point.. !LUV

Thanks. She's still recovering. She seems to be the last to get whatever this nasty cold is that's going around. I'm sorry to hear you and your family got it. Yes, hopefully we're all good now! !LOL

That's quite the wait. I'm glad they still got them to you at least . 🙂

I could get in trouble for stealing from the kitchen supply store
But that’s a whisk I’m willing to take.

The longest wait I endured for a package was about 10 weeks beginning with the Price plunge around March 12th, 2020 and finally receiving it at the end of May 2020. The order was from the Scottsdale Mint. They will take Crypto as payment but
discovered only if it is from the US address. I was forced to use a Credit Card that a steep CAD/USD conversion exchange and fees. The order had to go through the CBSA and they wanted their share in taxes. The whole story is here at this link.

Wow! What a mess!

I'm glad you both got the items in the end, but talk about a lot of added stress!

That little sword is pretty badass, that will be nice to add to the collection! I've never had to wait when I got a package, mostly because I bought it for myself so no waiting around for Christmas! lol

Thanks!

This one just had to wait because of too many chores and other projects that had to be dealt with first. Tonight I'll actually have some free time to open it. 😁
