  1. This is just a shameless bump to let everyone know that there is one more week to place your order for these coins. I've heard a number of concerns from people worried about spending their money on presales after what has happened in the past from some other geocoin companies. I just want to assure anyone who may be concerned that your funds are safe with me. I strive to make all of my customers happy and am an honest and reliable person. These coins will be ordered promptly on the morning of December 2nd, no later. Thanks everyone & Happy Holidays
  2. Last week I heard a rumor that a rep from Team DeLorme was going to be in Boise. I wasn't sure where or when it was going to be until I got a frantic call from Loridarlin Friday morning telling me to get my butt down to REI. I hurried down there & we had a nice and long visit with Greg of Team DeLorme. He showed us a demo of the PN-40 GPS, it's really cool, both Lori & I definately want one. Shortly after we arrived Pabloturtle arrived too. Greg had a couple of hours to kill before he had an appointment at Cabelas so we decided to take him caching. First cache we took him to turned out to be archived, oops, that was my fault. And on the second cache we went to Lori tried to kill us all but we managed to survive, barely Greg found the cache and sadly informed us he only had one coin left We probably stood around for 5 minutes arguing who was going to take it and somehow I ended up with it. Yeah, it was me! lol Alright so I felt really bad that nobody else got a coin. What a cool coin! It's huge & heavy & it spins. I've probably spinned that thing well over 100 times. I hope lots & lots of people are lucky enough to receive one of these great coins. Thanks Greg & Team DeLorme (and Lori & Paul for letting me have it)
  3. I typically don't like doing presales myself but since the Idaho residents have the ability to customize the non-trackable coins a presale is the only way to go for this coin. There will be a very small amount of extra trackable coins available for purchase once the coins arrive though. Thank you for your explanation.
  4. Why out of curiosity? We chose 3 different pictures to show some of the different areas of Idaho. The coins looked nice in all the antique finishes we ordered samples in so we decided to offer them in all. Nobody has to buy all the editions, in fact most people are just buying 1 or 2 coins total.
  5. The Idaho Geocachers are excited to announce the 2008 Idaho Geocoin. These coins are currently available for presale, presales will close on December 1st and we expect these coins to arrive by the end of December. Please read below for additional information and photos: - 1.75 inches in diameter and 3mm in thickness - Traditional Octagon shape characteristic with the Idaho State Geocoins - Trackable on Geocaching.com with unique icon. "Track at Geocaching.com" will appear on the top line on the backside of the coin (where it says Idaho) & the tracking number will appear on the bottom line (where it says 2008). - 3 separate editions with photos on the frontsides from Goose Creek Falls, Lake Pend Oreille, and Wildhorse Creek. All these places are located in Idaho and the photos were taken by local geocachers. - Each version of this coin is available in Antique Bronze, Antique Copper, and Antique Silver. - The backside of the coin is in 3d and showcases some of the fun things us Idahoans enjoy doing from kayaking to rock climbing to off-roading to enjoying our beautiful mountains. - Only $8.50 each! - These coins can be viewed and purchased HERE Goose Creek Falls in Antique Silver Lake Pend Oreille in Antique Bronze Wildhorse Creek in Antique Copper We hope you will enjoy these coins!!!!
  6. Great looking coin Lori I can't wait to see these in person!!!
  7. I had some coins that had to be remade due to factory errors. They arrived today & I've updated my site to reflect the correct quantities available. As of today I have the following: 3 Antique Silver 15 Antique Brass 16 Antique Copper Once these coins are gone no more will ever be made again as the coin will be retired. I appreciate all the great compliments Yime & I have received about the coin. Please keep an eye on my website as we will be raffling off four of our very special Antique Gold editions of this coin starting on Monday. Only 20 were made and they look really great! Thanks everyone
  8. Your coins were mailed on October 27th to your Nova Scotia address. Sounds like a postal delay. Sorry about that, hope they arrive soon
  9. Today I received a rather peculiar black padded envelope in the mail. I didn't even know they made black padded envelopes, lol. Inside I found the cutest little geocoin. I hadn't seen this coin before but actually talked to Loridarlin the other day about it. She called to tell me she got one and how excited she was. When I saw this envelope and the homemade postage stamp I knew exactly what was inside. I was thrilled to have received one. Thank you whoever you are I especially love the little ghosts hidden in his bandanna. Thanks!!!
  10. Just a quick update All the presold coins have been packaged up. The international orders will be shipped on Monday & the USA orders all were mailed out today. The remaining coins have been listed and are currently available for purchase on my website. The links at the top of this thread are still active. Right now I have approximately 40 coins left. Thanks all

  12. Very, very cool Mike I still wear mood rings occasionally.
  13. Here is the information from her webpage: I anticipate the Geo-Goblins Geocoin arriving around October 23rd. Presales are now closed. I will place the remainder of the coins on the website once all orders are packaged and mailed out. Posting of direct store links aren't allowed. I'll PM you her site. What Eric said. Thanks Eric I imagine the remainder of the coins will be available for purchase sometime on Friday.
  14. Just a quick update to let everyone know that I expect these coins to arrive at my house within just a few days. As soon as I receive the coins all orders will be packaged and mailed out within 24 hours. The remainder of the coins, I think there is a little over 50, will be available for purchase at that time. Thanks

  16. Just a quick note to let those who pre-purchased these coins know they arrived today & will be shipped out today also. Any extra coins will be listed on the website later tonite. Thx
  17. I was totally shocked when I opened my mailbox the other day & out popped a Creepy Crawly Cachers geocoin. How cool is that? This is a really cute coin. Thank you so much for thinking of me
  18. Those are finished but will be shipped out with the lobster coins. I'll be placing those on the website as soon as they arrive. Thanks for the interest That is great to see there will be a pin with these great coins. What colors will the pin come in? There will be some red boiled lobster pins in black nickel, some live lobster pins in copper, some glowing albino lobster pins in black nickel, some glowing yellow lobster pins in black nickel & some blue lobster pins in nickel
  19. Oooops, I forgot to mention in my original post that Yime will have the samples of these coins at Geocoinfest. If you want to see what they look like in person (they are really cool!) be sure to stop by his vendor booth (if you can call it that, you'll know what I mean when you get there) and take a gander at them
  20. YemonYime and I have joined forces and are thrilled to present our first geocoin, The Geo-Goblin. This is one wicked coin that might scare the pants off of those children who don't play by the geocaching rules. These coins are available for purchase in three different metals. The coins have been ordered but we decided to open up pre-sales for anyone who might want to reserve their coins beforehand. Those who do agree to pre-purchase their coins now will receive 10% off the list price. Please read below for more information about these coins along with pictures: - 3D on entire front and back of coin. - 2.25 inches x 3mm in thickness. (I accidently wrote that these were 2.5 inches across, they are actually 2.25 inches) - Trackable at geocaching.com with unique geo-goblin icon. - 225 coins available for purchase, we may mint more, we have no decided at this point. - $12.50 each - We elected to have these coins minted outside of China in order to obtain the incredible 3D look. As a result these coins were more expensive to mint than usual. The frontside of the coin depicts a scary geo-goblin peaking over the border of the coin. The geo-goblin poem reads: There once was a boy who stole items from caches, Travel bugs, geocoins, gone from their stashes! But one day he vanished while out and about, The Geo-Goblins will get you if you don't watch out. The backside of the coin depicts three geo-goblins celebrating around a fire. They are hidden deep in the woods surrounded by a multitude of trees. The remains of a cathedral arch are faintly visible in the background. Geo-Goblin in Antique Copper - 100 coins available for purchase here Geo-Goblin in Antique Brass - 75 coins available for purchase here Geo-Goblin in Antique Silver - 50 coins available for purchase here We hope everyone enjoys these as much as we enjoyed designing them
  21. Those are finished but will be shipped out with the lobster coins. I'll be placing those on the website as soon as they arrive. Thanks for the interest
  22. This is just a quick update to let those who pre-purchased these coins know that I expect them to arrive on October 15th or 16th. These are taking about a week longer to finish than anticipated due to the complexity of the design, there are alot of tiny areas that need to be filled in with paint. As soon as the coins arrive they will promptly be inspected and mailed out the same day I receive. I did order a small amount of extra coins for anyone who might have missed out. Those will be placed on the website as soon as they arrive. Thanks!
  23. This is just a quick post to let anyone who might interested know that I have some additional sets of Antique Copper Nude Caching Geocoins available for purchase. I recently reminted 50 sets and half are still available. Once these coins are gone I will be retiring the Nude Caching geocoins. Here is a link: http://www.dorkfishcoins.com/cart/index.ph...products_id=116 Thanks Karma
