  1. E-mail s zaslán aktivační kód. Doufám, že to je informace, kterou potřebujete.

     

    translation: email with activation code sent.

     

    the geocoin in question was the "firefighter geocoin" made by coins and pins. i was able to retrieve the activation code at coincodes.com and forward it to the OP. i hope this helps. :wub:

     

    pěkná mince!

  2. Funny thing, I ordered several of those "golden retriever" coins only because they are a print MISTAKE. The picture is NOT a golden retriever but is a Yellow Labrador instead. So I emailed them about it and this is the response I got back.

     

    "Hi there ya its my fault.. i was not thinking and attached the wrong picture to my girl who does the designs (In china they know nothing about dogs) well they do but only for eating purposes.

    Anyways ya there like 5 bucks ... i struck 250 pcs wont strike more dogs :("

    Thanks

    I knew they were low quality however I find humor in printing mistakes on currency, etc. and wanted a couple before they were gone.

    Still haven't recieved them, though.

    Hope they come through.

    i got a good laugh out of those when i saw them at ebay, too. :wub: i certainly hope they didn't pay $5.00 for each one! for a little more they could have used an established mint company with much better quality control and much nicer finished item. i wonder why the auction description says there were 500 made, when they mentioned to you that only 250 were produced? anyway, let us know if you have any problems with the tracking code or activation code once you receive them.

  3. ...decided just now to give the tracking number and activation code a try. They worked. Recognized the coin as "Zombie Permit Geocoin." Icon is the generic coin icon.

    i hope the invalid activation code was just a rare occurance, and that all the other tracking codes from this seller are indeed legitimate. there really is no law against flooding the market with low quality, crappy geocoins...lol...they are currently selling 64 geocoin items on ebay this week. :wub:

  4. i was wondering when we would get the 1st rip-off complaint here about this mint and ebay seller. i hope those people that posted on the "fake templars" thread commenting on "why the big fuss?", will now understand why legitimate coiners are so concerned! these people have sold hundreds and possibly thousands, of so called cheap "geocoins", and many of the people that bought them, will NEVER activate these geocoins, so they have no way on earth of knowing whether their tracking number and activation code is bogus or not! these con artists may have even bought a few "good or real" tracking numbers and stamped them on a few coins just to cast some doubt as to whether they are ripping people off or not. this will allow them to keep selling indefinitely. so, sadly, there will be many people ripped off in this scam, and they will now be hesitant about buying geocoins. as the saying goes..."once bitten...twice shy". i sure hope more people come forward and voice their complaints! :)

  5. congrats to "gorillagal" and to the DUKE BLUE DEVILS for being the 4th and final team to make it into the FINAL FOUR! you are also guarateed a new geocoin! so, here are your official FINAL FOUR:

     

    March Madness Cointest Selections:

     

    06. seekerfamily (post #35) MICHIGAN STATE (5 seed in the midwest)

    36. acadiahiker (post #51) BUTLER (5 seed in the west)

    good luck to these FOUR teams! you are all guaranteed at least a new micro geocoin! :)

  6. Oh!Thank you Dave! :D

    I like WV seal!

     

    It might look stupid.. but... I still can not understand the Duke's seal! What is this guy on it?? An Elf? A wizard? A bug Man?? Count Dracula?? :)

     

    Dukes are good! Baylor is good too! Oncve again a great game! :(

    i agree...i have no idea why Duke are called "blue devils", and the image needs to be updated or changed! maybe they should do a complete radical change like Michigan State Spartans did with their image logo this year!...

  7. Well, I was super sad to see my K-State Wildcats lose to Butler. But at least I still have a shot at a coin. Not sure I can make myself cheer for Duke, though. :rolleyes:

    sorry about the wildcats loss, they played hard, nothing to be ashamed of. great season! things would have been really weird for you if Duke had met K-state in the finals! now, maybe you'll have a little compassion for the Blue Devils. :)

  8. congrats to "st_moose" and WEST VIRGINIA for being the 2nd to make the FINAL FOUR!

     

    st_moose is also now guaranteed a geocoin...we must wait and see if it will be a micro geocoin or a full size geocoin! :rolleyes: tomorrow will give us the last two teams to make it into the FINAL FOUR. here are the teams still left standing:

  9. I'm not sure if the coins made their way here at this particular time, strictly as a matter of coincidence, or not, but I would like to express my thanks, and Kathy's, for a most wonderful thought from a most wonderful mystery sender. The card will remain on my computer desk, where I can view it every day!
