SlytherinAlex Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 Folks Do the rest of us CARE if you paid, thats a personal thing Malcolm Well "I" care. But I take your point. If you have paid, then thanks. But you don't have to post on the forum. Anyone else who is thinking about ordering coins better get in quick. They WILL sell out. And quite soon too. a.

SlytherinAlex Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Anyone who fancies ordering coins and hasn't already done so? It looks like they will sell out within the next hour or so. After that it will be wait-list time in case anyone who orders, doesn't pay. - Link to comment

+Haggis Hunter Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 If you are about to sell out of your first batch, can you tell us how many are actually in this batch, and will there be more to follow, or will it be an exclusive club??? Link to comment

+Hi-Tek Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Folks Do the rest of us CARE if you paid, thats a personal thing Malcolm It was meant as a polite note to let Alex know things had been sorted - PayPal can sometimes be a bit tardy in its responses. Sorry it necessitated a response from you. All I can add is, in the words of my kids, "Whatever!" Link to comment

On your order, you entered your email address with a "comma" instead of a "full stop" between aol.com I though you normally get an error when you have a malformed email address; as your ISP's DNS server checks that the domain exists, before it even leaves your email client. Or as I suspect Alex spoofs his emails with a bogus email address and does not use his ISP's email server for outbound emails. Milton (aka moote) Link to comment

Do you know when you will be likely to send them out? I think there will be more than one trip to the post office. In fact I'm hoping that in this instance, the post office will come to me.

+civilised Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Hi Not sure what I'll be doing with mine - keep one obviously, and put the others in caches I suppose - but does the fact of purchase and/or registering them on GC.com automatically give me the icon ? If not, is it legitimate to log one in and out of a cache ? Thanks - looking forward to seeing them. civilised Link to comment
SlytherinAlex Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 It looks like the last box of coins has made it through customs in both Anchorage and Stansted, leaving me with a tax bill from both the US and the UK - deep joy. They are currently in the FedEx depot just a mile from my house, so I am assuming they will be on the van for delivery on Monday. There are still five UK orders that are not paid for. Email reminder has been sent. If there is still anyone who wants some of these magnificent coins then there looks to be enough unpaid German orders that I will have some spare to sell. alex.

+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 - but does the fact of purchase and/or registering them on GC.com automatically give me the icon ? If not, is it legitimate to log one in and out of a cache ? Well, it does and it doesn't! Mine arrived yesterday and i registered it. That seems to have put the icon and name in my owned list. I then dropped it into my own cache and grabbed it again, to start the mileage check off. I dropped it using a note as I didn't think it would be quite right to "find" my own cache, and that doesn't seem to have added an icon to the found list at all. So if anyone has any better idea how to fix that, please let me know! BTW they look great and well worth waiting for, thank you Alex for all your hard work on this project, it must truly have been a labour of love. Link to comment

For some reason Groundspeak allows you to find your own cache and register it against your stats, but will allow you to pick up your own TB/Coin but won't register it gainst your stats.

+Haggis Hunter Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I see that the icon is just a standard GC.com coin icon is there any chance it can be changed like most other icon's such as Germany's or any of the others below, just to make it a little bit more personal. Or is this going to cause problems? Midwest Geobash Coins Michigan Geocoins CC Geocoins Maryland Geocoins Ohio Geocoins New Jersey Geocoins Compass Rose Geocoins Tennessee Gecoins Link to comment

Glad that you like them. Just so no one gets too excited, everyone who ordered either one or two coins had theirs posted yesterday. Anyone who ordered more than that will have them posted either today or tomorrow. It's half day at the Post Office today and I'm racing the clock to get some more packages up there. Hopefully everyone in the UK will have their coins by the weekend. alex. Link to comment
