    Provident now has this coin as a pre-sale.
    Note: I am not afilliated with them.

    Phenomenal interest in the 2014 Australian Saltwater Crocodile means that The Perth Mint has now received committed orders for 1 million coins.

    As a result, this release is no longer available for sale to wholesale or retail customers. An announcement about the coin's sell out at the Mint will be made shortly, pending the manufacture and delivery of remaining coins in the mintage.

    So in regards to the above statement.
    I have ordered my croc rolls on the 22nd, was told by the dealer that they will be ion MONDAY the 26th.
    I phoned them and they asked to call back tomorrow, called again and they said later inthe week. Called today Thursday 29th and got the answering machine three times over the span of the day.

    The original order has not been paid, should I just dishonour the order and take my business elsewhere?
    Wouldn't normally do this but the delays and the no answer topped by the massive drop in spot, I mean, why not aye.

    My normal dealer expects payment in 24 hrs. Some invoke penalties for cancelled orders.

    Ive never cancelled an order/purchase. If spot drops (has been known to happen these last 3 years) I wear it. If spot goes up I wear that too. Spot dropped a mile after I bought xag rounds last year.

    Its not what you pay, its what you buy thats important. ;)

    Yeh I hear that, as I said, it's not about the price, more about the growing uncertainty that they are going to get the stock in.

    You mean which dealer requires payment in 24hrs and or a penalty for market loss? Pretty much any bullion dealer in North America lol.
