+Kilted Cacher Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Here's my coin design going into production. This coin will be able to be tracked on geocaching.com just like other trackable coins on gc.com (i.e. Moun10Bike, Colorado, Michigan, Geobash, GWIII, etc). The prefix for this coin will be PC, which stands for Personal Coin. When I get the coins in, I will accept offers for trade, but please wait until I have the coins in hand, which may be in mid-September. Quote Link to comment

+carleenp Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Kilts rock! Very nice coin! I will have to pull some coins together and hope I have something worth trading for one. Quote Link to comment

+maggieszoo Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I hope I have something to trade by then, too. Awesome coin! UUummmmm........is it true what they say about what is worn under the kilt? Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I'll definitely want to trade with you! Nice design! Quote Link to comment
+Kilted Cacher Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Hmmm, What is worn under a kilt? 1) Socks and shoes. 2) Nothing is worn under the kilt. It is all in perfect working order. 3) Talcum powder. 4) A matching set! 5) I never answer that question on a first date. I could go on and on and on..... No sales at this time, though I won't be able to stop someone from putting it on eBay . I will be trading for other personal coins mostly, or anything I don't already have. Quote Link to comment

+Bear Paughs Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I don't have anything to trade, but I'd love one or more of these if you'd take PayPal when the time comes. This is one of my favorite designs of those I've seen so far -- nice work! Quote Link to comment

Go-mad-Cow Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 KC, I'll trade you 2 of mine for 2 of yours if you are willing. Email me and we can trade shipping addresses first. I should be seeing mine in early Sept. JayBee Quote Link to comment

+Shop99er Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 (edited) I'll trade one of mine for one of yours. I would have waited, but I'll be on vacation in September. Outstanding design!! [edit--added more words] Edited August 24, 2005 by Shop99er Quote Link to comment

+Kilted Cacher Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 (edited) Does anyone think that if I offer some for sale (at cost, no profit), there would be any interest? Just checking to see what my options are. I don't really know if selling a personal coin is taboo or not. Reason is, I thought about ordering 300 coins instead of 100, which would lower the cost of each coin. I could sell 200 coins at cost and then the original 100 coins I wanted would be at least $1.00 cheaper per coin. This way I am not payment as much out of pocket for the 100 coins I plan on trading. Is this making any sense?? Edited August 24, 2005 by Kilted Cacher Quote Link to comment
+Cornerstone4 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Makes total sense, and I don't think there is anything wrong with it. Several other cachers are already selling personal coins. C4 Quote Link to comment
SCP-173 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I would buy one. I like your design a lot. Quote Link to comment

Is this making any sense?? I would expect that your 100 coins would last you a lot longer too if your plan is to trade them. 1) You'd have fewer possible trading partners since many would have purchased your coins. 2) It would be more difficult to make trades with people like me that also have their own coin, by using your coin as trading collateral, since someone else may have already traded one with me.

+nscaler Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 As Nurse Dave put it so well: "If you mint it, they will come" Now watch how many offer to buy. Like me! I would like five. Quote Link to comment
+Cache-Hounds Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Since we don't have our own coin to trade yet, we would be interested in buying 2 if you decide to sell them. Great looking coin! Quote Link to comment

Is this making any sense?? I think it would be wonderful if you did that, and I'm sure you would get a good response. Silvermarc recently did it and I believe he sold most, if not all, of his run by the time they were shipped to him. I think it's great for the newbies and the people who have nothing to trade. Maybe Silvermarc or some of the others who have or are in the process of minting personal coins can provide some input? Also, if you increased your run and offered them for sale, many people (myself included) would buy multiples. I think you'd be surprised how quickly they would go. Quote Link to comment
+SirGerald Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I'm in the same buying group as GrandpaKim (See post above). We would definitely be interested in buying a few coins if you were to sell some of them. It's perfectly kosher to sell personal coins. You can do whatever suits your fancy. --SirGerald Quote Link to comment
+MikeOtt Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Please sell them. Or at least sell one to me. Even at premium over your cost. I really want a GC.com trackable coin that will give a new icon for your stats page that I can use as activated coin for Meet and Greet at Geocaching events. Especially since I want to have "Icon Hunters" local breakfast and need all the coins that give special icons. New collectors dont have much to trade except anything you can currently buy. My "inventory" is just 2005 USA, Canada,MIGO, Texas, and Alaska. I think interest will be high for your coin (besides being very nice design) because it is GC.com trackable--not many can say that.

+geospyder Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Sounds like there are a few of us kilted cachers. My standard answer to the age old question, presuming it is asked by a female (and 99% of the time it is) is "If you have a warm hand I'll let you find out." Quote Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I would buy one for sure. Quote Link to comment

+ManGenGho Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 And I would buy at least one of them! Quote Link to comment
Team Hatfield Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 We would buy at least two. You probably already have all the coins that we have to trade. Team Hatfield Quote Link to comment
+xfalcon1 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 i'd Buy 2- 3, Great coin Quote Link to comment
+Kilted Cacher Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 Coins are finally in production, they will be ready in about 4 weeks. I will start the setup for trades as soon as I figure out how to do it. Anyone have a system for tracking this? Quote Link to comment

+Cryptid Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Hmmm, What is worn under a kilt? 1) Socks and shoes. 2) Nothing is worn under the kilt.

No sales at this time, though I won't be able to stop someone from putting it on eBay . I will be trading for other personal coins mostly, or anything I don't already have.

+The Foote Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 I think you could easily sell the 200 extras. Paople will buy them.... Especially those of us who have jsut started getting coins and have nothing to trade yet. Inf act I would probably buy 2 so I had another trading option! Quote Link to comment
+zombie tribe Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 you can add me to the purchase list as well please. zombie tribe Quote Link to comment
+Kilted Cacher Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 My problem is that if I offer to sell some, then I lose the ability to trade for coins I don't have. The original intent was to have a personal coin to trade with others so that I can add to my collection. Making money or getting my coin out in the geo-world was and is not my intention. If you don't have coins to trade yet, don't fret. After I have set up for trades, I will take inventory and sell some of what I have left. Not sure how many I will have at this point.

+legna and sOulbAit Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Please add me to your "aftertrade" "presales" list. I'l take two if you have any after the trades. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+Kilted Cacher Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 (edited) Alright here we go: If you would like to trade for one of my coins when they come in, you can send an email with your coin offered and your address here: kiltedcacher@gmail.com To see what coins I already have, you can see my coin list here: Coin List Please no request for purchase just yet, I am trying to figure out the trades first.
