How go the "chip" orders?

[+Opticsboy]

Okay all,

 

Here is the final die art. I am quite pleased with the way it has turned out. the black is actually raised metal with a black nickel metal finish. I think it will look quite sharp.

 

I will need to be sending out paypal requests here shortly... after i figure out the shipping (Plush or not)... =) I hope to be ready to accept payment tomorrow.

 

Can anyone recomend how to send out paypal payment requests since I do not have everyone's email addresses?

 

In answer to several questions I have received: Yes trading for the coins is fine. I have made the minimum coin purchase already, so trades are acceptable. Also note that i am still accepting offers for purchase or trade...

I have not yet persued the chips. I will get on that after the coins.

 

I have been a bit preoccupied at home. My wife had our twins a week ago, so we have been busy at home with other things...

 

Here is a pic of the kids (Brady and Alyssa 4 lbs 13 oz and 4 lbs 1 oz respectively). I am taking suggestions for a tribute cache to them... I don't like simple caches; I am looking for inventive, fun, difficult, novell, and/or evil.

[Son of Cyclops]

I would like to trade you a Cyclops & Son coin if you have any left.

Will you leave them in a cache or can I trade another coin for one. I'll take the one on the left.

[+Opticsboy]

Nice... No, the cache will not contain actual children... However, topics like that always get me thinking...

 

What about a cache that used little baby figureins to point to the next stages... Or contained a riddle just by their presence.

Congrats on the new tykes. My boys just turned 6 this past june. They were never quite so small as to fit in a glove (great pic!), but it is hard to imagine them as anything close to that anymore. Enjoy those tiny little ones.

 

I am thinking a baseball themed puzzle so that you can use that photo on the cache page

[+AtlantaGal]

Yay, I'm on the trade list

 

I'll have my new coins around Oct 20th to trade w/ ya.

[+Opticsboy]

Okay, the coins are now open for order! I have paid the manufacturer, and have figured shipping. The cost structure goes as follows:

 

Price per coin: $5

 

Shipping for 1: $1

Shipping for 2: $1 (0.50 each)

Shipping for 3: $1.35 (0.45 each)

Shipping for 4: $1.75 (0.4375 each)

Shipping for 5: $2.15 (0.43 each)

Shipping for more than 5: Please use the qty 5 shipping rates.

 

If you are located outside the US, please send me your address so that I can get a specific shipping cost for you.

 

Please pay via Paypal to the following email: scason@dbmoptics.com

Of course you will need to send me your address as well.

 

Below is the list of people that I have so far. I do have several more that can be sold, but I am nearing the end of the line on coins for sale. Please get any further orders in ASAP if you still want more than listed below.

 

Thank you again for your support in this process.
