+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 I have phoned Groundspeak and left a message to see what the status is on the tracking numbers. The $900 payment for 600 tracking numbers was made on Oct 2nd, so it's been a little longer than the time they indicated. The person in charge of coins is in on Fridays, so hopefully I will hear back tomorrow. I imagine the poor fellow must be absolutely swamped! Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 I spoke directly with Groundspeak and recieved and immediate call-back! They are actually putting a rush on the tracking numbers -- I think there was a mis-communication and they were unaware that I had sent the $900 payment! Long and short is that I should have the numbers quite quickly and can get this to the little "coin elves" at CoinsandPins to start making. Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 I have the numbers! Now I can order the final design, confirm it, and ...... you know what's next! Quote Link to comment
+welch Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 all i need to know is are we there yet?? Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted October 29, 2005 Author Share Posted October 29, 2005 I hear you! The delay in the numbers caught me in a couple of travelling/traingn weeks so this has caused a bit of a delay as well (I'm in Toronto on Monday, back to Calgary on Wednesday, off to Vacouver on Thursday and then Calgary and Montreal!) -- at least I get to help about 15 TB's get some milage Anyhow, I will do some work in the hotel on the final design/labels/communcation to CoinsandPins. Get then the cash and we should have these soon. I just want to keep everyone in the loop and will do a post-project costing etc to help others in their coin production projects.

+Ed & Julie Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Just a bump...I paid for mine a while ago, and had to search for the thread since it fell off the front page. Ed Quote Link to comment
+4agers Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I'm dying here... must... have... coin. Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 Hello all! I missed the weekly update because I was on the road the past week (which delayed the coin). Anyhow, I DO have the numbers and just need to e-mail CoinsandPins (which I will do right now), get the final quote (I imagine by weeks end) and they are.... READY TO GO! It should be about 4 weeks max. (the delay occured becuase I wantd to order prior to my cross-country training tour and the numbers were delayed ) Quote Link to comment
+manituela Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 HEllo i am interested for 2 coins! Thanks manuela Quote Link to comment
+KrazyTrollz Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hi There, Do you have any coins left? If so, I'd love to have (2) Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+Packman5 Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 If there are any left we would be interested in 4 coins please. Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 In production! The number left will be determined after I mail out all the ones already spoken for. At that point I'll have a clearer picture, but don't think there will be very many if any -- I ordered pretty close to the pre-orders on this one as I didn't want to get left with a bunch of coins -- however, it seems that that was pretty unlikely! Just a heads-up -- I once again have to jump up and down and rave about CoinsandPins. They really, really "get" the whole idea of geocoins and tracking etc. For those interested, you can go directly to them as a one-stop shop for getting coins made -- they even have tracking numbers pre-purchased, so you can get them at the same time. With my coins, I drew the pictures as scribbles and cuts and pastes of elements I liked and they formed them into my personal coin. (this one was pretty easy -- especially as I had that great hand image posted here in the forum for us -- thanks!) Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 Oh -- and for those wondering what the delay was -- I am still all over the continent (well, all over Canada). I had hoped to have these going before late Oct/Nov when I am travelling, but the tracking number mix-up caused a three-week delay and now I am really, really busy. (I have moved a few Travel Bugs close to 10,000 miles though!) -- plus I have found caches to the west and east! Quote Link to comment
+BeerMan-Qc Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 (edited) it wasn't a limited edition geocoins, sold out since a few weeks? http://coinsandpins.com/Merchant2/merchant...y_Code=Misc-coi the bottom of the page Edited November 15, 2005 by BeerMan-Qc Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 it wasn't a limited edition of 500 geocoins, sold out since a few weeks? http://coinsandpins.com/Merchant2/merchant...y_Code=Misc-coi the bottom of the page It's not something you can order from coinsandpins. That is a convenience link for LFD to pay for the coins. I am not sure if this answers your question. Quote Link to comment

I am not sure if this answers your question. I don't understand very well ... this order is only for Lemon Fresh Dog to pay these Red-handed Coins? it shouldn't be public this page, only the designer should see this page for payment ? presently , everyone will be able to buy this set of 600.... I don't understand this procedure... Edited November 15, 2005 by BeerMan-Qc Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Try to by a set They post this so that I can use the Lemon Fresh Credit Card to pay. If anyone else trys to order, they won't be able to. Yes, it does make the price public -- however, I always have been up-front on the costs. I set the final count at 600 (well, actually 601 -- strange story). To accomondate all the orders that I recieved at the cut-off point. (the way I did it was to say "order until DD/MM and then no more" at the point I cut-off ordering there were about 500 ordered -- so I bumped it to 600. Does this mean there are extras? Nope. I am going to "cache" the little fellows -- release them -- let them LIVE! Don't be stealing them! -- if you do.....you've been caught RED-HANDED! Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 BTW -- I am assuming that folks want these coins UNACTIVATED. If anyone needs/wants their coin activated in advance -- let me know and I'll do so. (I guess it depends on which side of your icon gallery you want the credit) oh yeah -- this is a PERSONAL coin (sort of) and does NOT have a custom icon I think it would be cool to have a little red-hand, but that's a no-go.

+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 20, 2005 Author Share Posted November 20, 2005 (edited) So are we getting these soon??? The second I have them, they are in the mail. I have address labels for those that ordered. I'm on the road -- so I expect I will recieve/ship en-mass 1st or 2nd week of December. (They are being minted as I write this!)

+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Good news! Coins and Pins has once again raised the bar! They have minted and shipped the coins! They are due here tomorrow, It gets better! I just got a one-day training contract in Ohio - so I will fly in on the 29th and leave on the 30th, but that's more than enough time to visit a US Post office. This will speed delivery to US addresses considerably Quote Link to comment
