    Where would they show up if released? I want to get one but is it just a case of hitting F5 at the homepage constantly?

    Hi
    I dont normally collect the Perth Mint issues except for bullion, but this time i think i might get some of their opal koala coin. It seems to be a start of a series that runs for 4 years. might be worth something later.

    one never knows modern issues are hard to predict

    I think you have to get to Perth & strap a note to a passing dingo which will then pass it to his kangaroo mate who'll handover to a black cockatoo... or roll your order up (DO NOT under any circumstances be tempted to light it, however much the stress of dealing with PM get to you) stick it in a bottle & throw it off the nearest tidal bridge. Either way you might get a reply by 2051... but WHO KNOWS... WE ARE BUT MERE MORTALS... 'TIS NOT OURS TO QUESTION WHY etc etc...

    Spoke with online sales today at the PM.
    As previously posted by other stackers, the release takes place at midnight tonight....
    But when I asked them if the websights teething problems had been rectified to handle the heavy demand, their reply was -that they had introduced the midnight release to spread the workload ............and system being overloaded with orders.

    So I think its safe to say , expect delays again......have plenty of coffee on hand.

    Wiki says midnight splits both so is best to be avoided/not used but i further read that 12am would be 2400, so that shows it would more likely be the end of that day.

    I got the 4 coin set last time and sold for 575, that is now back to issue price on some sales, i dont want anything myself.

    edit, i think going by my thoughts perth mint may be right, getting late. As it will be 2400 hours on the 2nd.

    I for one won't be using up any of the Perth Mint's server speed for anything in this release.

    Isn't that Dragon the same as the one in the 9 coin coloured BU China set?!?!?!

    WTF?!? Not even a proof!!!

    JC Christ they get it WRONG every time don't they...

    The Pearl Koala's a MINGER too!

    I should've expected this - I am NOT spending a cent more on PM product until they get their poo together... seriously... what a total disappointment.
