    This is a question for those experienced in ordering multiple '1 per customer' (or similar) coins from the perth mint. Do you know what exactly the rules are? Will they only ship 1 order to each address, or do they not care about the address as long as it's a separate account? Could I ship 20 orders to the same address as long as each order came from a unique account? Does payment have to come from an account under the same name as the registered name on the perth mint account?

    Thanks in advance for any input

    1 PER HOUSEHOLD
    No matter how many different accounts / people live in that household
    And they do stick to it ;)

    Well, that can't be true all the time because I already ordered 2 high relief dragons when they came out and they both went to the same address.

    I've never ordered anything from them ,just what I've seen people say on here
    Could be different for the HR as they have been a flop

    Only thing I ordered was 3 x HR dragons which was 1 per customer (not per household) - all 3 shipped to same address and paid by same cc

    The HR sold out in hours at the perth mint and was 1 per customer. There was a 30 minute queue for my orders to process. Not trying to argue here, just stating what happened...

    Well I could be wrong ,I don't order from them so I haven't read the terms :D
    From what I've seen HR haven't got any premium on them YET ,Downies had one in they're window for a while

    They were amazing to flip..less so to keep(so far). I bought mine for 107 each and resold them on ebay for 185 and 194. After fees I made about 60 bucks per coin.

    I think they enforce this on an ad-hoc basis. Given there are Perth Mint representatives and staff active or lurking on the forum, I'm sure they will be paying more attention to this in future now it's been brought to their notice :p

    Ya, I'm really panicking here. Sorry, but I have a hard time believing the perth mint couldn't conceive, until now, of anyone trying to buy more than 1 coin. The idea is absurd. Plus, the perth mint doesn't even say one per household. They say one per customer. If they REALLY cared so much about limiting who got what they'd do like eurocollections who logs address, credit card, name, even IP address.

    Or you could make it so new accounts can't have duplicate information with a previous account(like same address). There are a multitude of ways they could prevent this, but they don't.

    And it's not so much an issue of "Getting around the Perth Mint quantity per customer limit" (as per post title), but rather working within the constraints and allowances the PM has itself set :)

    here but not there
    more than one customer in this household so the 2 are diff if they say one per customer then can not a household be four or five customers? if its one per household then that's diff one per address would make more sense?

    as for EC/Downies they must have my IP address off here because they never fill my orders and i will keep bagging them out :) one per universe they would have problems with anyway it works both ways they don't get any of my money and i must say i am happy about that.....having said all that they do fill my inbox and letter box with countless pages of over priced rubbish they try to palm off :p

    edit: i will let it go one day or maybe i will have it on my headstone LOL, please take it in the spirit its given i am sure Downies are nice people !!
