  1. I'm going to hold off on these then, lets wait until the coins are "in hand" you may have extra, or be short.... thanks!
  2. I'll pick it up... http://www.geocoins.net/GeocoinsMinted.htm
  3. I thought the original geocoins were a signature item left by a cacher. I don't believe the first coins were trackable. Someone correct me if I'm mistaken. GS has taken the coin, turned it into a trackable item, and now competes with the TB's. I have some great coins that I got by personal trades that have nothing to do with geocaching, (they do mention it somewhere on the coin) but reflect the cacher's name or personality. That's what I love about the personal coins, they are just that..... In regards to your non-trackable comment, I'd like to see how many of a trackable coin actually leaves the hands of the geocacher, I bet the percentage is quite low...... as a collector, I don't even register them, so there was a few $1.50 wasted.....
  4. I think what everyone if forgetting here is that the 100 or so they're keeping for trades and caches are being paid for by the other 400. So if you have a coin that costs $6.50 or $7.00 from the minter and need to pay for 100 for yourself so they're free, you'll end up with a substantially higher priced coin. I usually just do a little quick math... lets say he paid $7.00 per coin from the minter (which sounds pretty high) multiply by 500 coins is.. $3500 he paid... then he's charging $12.95 per coin x 500 = $6475 (not including shipping) hmmm... yeah he got his 100 coins paid for and then some..... I'm not complaining, I didn't buy one. He did extremely well and I tip my hat to him. I also believe if he had charged $25.00 per coin, you'd still see people messaging... "paypal sent!" you should be saying ca$he on!
  5. this one is a little too expensive for me, I'll have to pass. good luck on it though!
  6. whap-whap-whap! boy you guys sure know how to beat a dead horse.... why on earth would GS lower the price of something when the coins and tracking numbers are selling like hotcakes? You need to open your old school books on economics. there's somebody out there with "Signal" on the plate of his BMW
  7. not many people realize that Bigfoot was actually a good friend of Adolph Hitler...
  8. I think the 3 faces is too much to try to get into a small icon, how about something like this? Just have one child's face represent all 3?
  9. yeah, they did do this, well, except the coin price went up instead of down, oh well... this thread
  10. I agree, I'm holding out for the lunchboxes and diapers to come out.
  11. Still nothing here..... any notice on if they shipped?
  12. still waiting to get mine.... zzzzzzzz
  13. I believe they want to limit the trades discussion to the pinned topic of trades that already exists. Just my .02 and I think I read somewhere that the search function would work again after upgrading to the latest version of the Invision board software.
  14. Why do I get the feeling that we'll soon see these coins on Ebay Kidding! Any monies I get from selling any of these coins will be going right back into coins. I said reducing not getting out. I don't need the money for medical reasons...Just to buy more coins. Team Sand Dollar I will be selling one of my kidneys to help pay for the coins I am collecting! I have slowed down though, I am only buying coins on the days that end in "y" I may buy that kidney. Me and -Hawk- are gonna go brew some beer next week. [edit--crappy sentence structure] oh man,,, I knew it would happen,,,, 2 of my favorite hobbies, and now I find another person addicted as well,,,, lets get together, brew a 5 gallon batch, and talk about hops and geocoins!
  15. the word "geocoin" will be replaced by "throat warbler mangrove" and any links you post must be in pig latin, -ootray ogghay!
  16. I'm sorry, the new policy has just charged you .05 cents for posting that!
  17. yup,,, found another option already
  18. very nice artwork on the eagle!
  19. it's "EGP" - Extra Geocoin Perception

  22. I really wanted a "you know what" from that "other" place but was afraid to post the link to "you know where",,,, Buying coins now involves meeting someone in a trenchcoat named "Guido" under a lampost at midnight. yeah,,, I need to score a bag of coins.
