Still looking to trade thet Gnome away? Will drop you an email later for a trade, I have to go to work .

Some great alternatives, but I do believe you hit the nail on the head. They are not widely used, in fact the only one on that list I have seen offered on Ebay I believe is Bidpay. So alternatives yes but finding someone to except this service is a different story.

Naomi, I tend to agree with Tasia here. I am guessing the money is posted to the other persons account instantaneously, where you might actually be seeing the delay is the time it takes for your bank to withdraw it from your account. An alternative would be to run a balance in your Paypal account, this would eliminate the delay. The irony of this is the fact that it will take that 2 to 3 days for your bank to transfer the money to Paypal.

For transferring money I am thinking Paypal is you main option. I am starting to see more and more people starting to use Google Checkout as an alternative for paying for items. So now that you have brought up the word Paypal, the biggest thing I hate about Paypal is the fact they are owned by Ebay!!! Is this not a conflict of interest, perhaps Monopoly? Lets face it the cost to use these services it getting more and more expensive. It is bad enough that Ebay socks it to you with a listing fee, then a final value fee (not to mention all the other fees such as photo gallery or reserved), then to boot you are charged ae fee when money is sent to you via Paypal, yep you gotit right more money in Ebays pocket!! It costs you a couple bucks in fees just to sell a coin!!! Maybe Google is listening, maybe they can step up to the plate and create an alternative?

I can only hope that Groundspeak can find other pressing issues that would distract them from putting guidelines and restrictions on how some chooses to freely giveaway a geocoin. Why must there be guidelines that would distract from the generosity of this community? How is there harm in guessing a persons birthday, or being a random post number?? What is this world coming to when you must ask for permission to give away a coin?

How precious!!!!

It is my experience that any TB/coin of mine that has made it to the other side of the pond has traveled better and more frequent than any other TB/coin that I have released. I have yet to figure out why this is occurs. So to answer your question: Where do you like them going: Anywhere overseas Where do you not like them going: Anywhere in the US

WOW, what an awesome gift to receive!!! It is in the hands of a very deserving person, congratulations !!!!

I hope you have looked at the big picture !!! Think about it !!!

The Rainforest Jewel coins are in the house!!!!! Woot Woot, Woot Woot!!!! Steph, yet another fabulous design, seems to me that each coin you produce evolves into something bigger and better than the previous coin. Thank you for the Black Nickel version as well, this will complete my set!

To me it is more about the exchange versus being annonymous. HHHHMMMMM is that why I use a different return address ? I can't win for losing, they will know who it came from when they receive the package, that Lackey is a dead giveaway!!!

You have two options: Go back to the cache and retrieve it for activation. Do nothing and chalk it up as swag! Almost identical response, great minds must think alike !

Stood outside the Steelers Stadium protesting the NFL's actions : Skipping Anthem an un-America move by NFL, Steelers

Use anonter coin addicts name and address, at least if it gets returned someone will be happy

I am not trying to start a debate and I realize you are just giving your best guess, but from what I read (and of course I tend to read into things), does this mean that we have to get approval of what we attach the tag to?

Huh?? Just out of curiosity, why?

It looks to me that I need to go and purchase a stocking ?

In order to purchase tracking numbers and to have an item tracked on GC.com the design has to be approved by the powers to be. It used to be that the only material that was allowed was metal. Currently we have seen porcelain and clay used so you never know until you present your design to the approving commitee

My winning guess is 37 !

I was extremley lucky and shocked to have found version 1 in a cache. Guess I better start caching to find a gold .

Well I will "ante" up without any ties!!!! Email me your address and I will send you a coin. Merry Christmas!

There is no tease about it, it will be in an envelope, just not sure who's!!!

This should make a lovely addition to someones Secret Santa package !
