+Terrible Ts Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I noticed that one person snagged 4 of the gold coins. What is going to happen to that order? I missed out on getting 1. Quote Link to comment
+-SuMa- Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Orderd and paid 2 GOLD and Bronze. First time to get coins in a fast buy action. Thanks. No I can go sleeping. regards Marc Quote Link to comment

+f0t0m0m Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Missed the GOLD...network connection from work is just too slow...Had I been at home it would not have been a problem.... Quote Link to comment
+nielsenc Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 The links work, but the search engine did not. Luckily, I am in for two bronze! I agree, the Search Engine didnt work. I followed the link here and picked up a couple. Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted December 3, 2005 Author Share Posted December 3, 2005 I see someone bought 4 of the gold. Guess they didn't see your note in this thread. One person contacted me and said they are buying for someone else that couldn't be at the computer. If it's not the same person they'll be getting a full refund. Quote Link to comment

+LadeBear68 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Well that really sucked. You put geocoin in your initial post than you changed it to geocoins. I had geocoin in the search engine on ebay and when it didn't show up after two minutes I went back to the forums and found that you had changed it. Quote Link to comment
+DancesWithMoose Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Got 3 bronze and no gold. Will be looking for a trade for a gold! Quote Link to comment
+Mauison Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Well that really sucked. You put geocoin in your initial post than you changed it to geocoins. I had geocoin in the search engine on ebay and when it didn't show up after two minutes I went back to the forums and found that you had changed it. Yep, I had geocoin in the search instead of geocoins. I should have used geocoin*. Oh well, missed the gold but got the bronze. Quote Link to comment

+Go JayBee Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 DAMM!!!!! I couldn't even get to the buy-now link at 30 seconds past 4:00pm!! Just barely made it to the Bronze page. Those "titles" we were given earlier were WRONG!!!! Allright, JayBee, get a grip on yourself....the GAA Coins will be coming soon and all will be well. Quote Link to comment
+nielsenc Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I wonder if this sets a record for ebay . Quote Link to comment
+Prairiepartners Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 got 2 golds and 1 bronze. the title change from what was in forums almost costed me the golds. Good thing I caught on quick. Only one rush like that per week please!! Quote Link to comment

I had geocoin in the search engine on ebay and when it didn't show up after two minutes I went back to the forums and found that you had changed it. The other problem with the search engine is that it doesn't update in real time. There are delays with the search. Having the auction # is the only true way to get to the auction page right when it starts. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Guess I could have ordered for ten people? Quote Link to comment
+Ladycacher Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Ok here is a problem a former geocacher had and so did I. I paid for the gold and then went to the bronze. When I bought the bronze it added the gold also. The guy I know ended up with four gold and didn't mean it to happen that way. I only put in for 1 gold and ended up with two because the same thing happened to me. Then when I check the site under purchases it says I only have 1 coming to me when my paypal says 2 and I have a reciept for 2. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 That isn't true showstop. As soon as I put in geocoins it came up. Quote Link to comment

+bärti Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 paypal'd for 2 gold and 3 bronze. thanks Quote Link to comment
+Shasties Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 That worked great. On a 24k dial-up at home and had no problems. I had an Ebay search all set up ready to go in another window. I was searching 'Lighthouse geocoins geocoin' and searching both title and description. You learn to do that if you look at Ebay long enough; their search most of the time is too specific. I snagged a gold and 2 bronze. I really like not having to pay until I'm done shopping. You don't have to fool with PayPal until your ordering is complete. And it even looked like Ebay kept going without a hitch, although PayPal seemed to take a long time to update. Thought for a minute that it was going to kick me off. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I just pulled up the bronze coins on ebay under geocoins. Quote Link to comment

+ShowStop Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Remember folks...its a coin series. That means there will be more coins in the future. I missed out on the GOLD coin also. I'm just gonna make plans to buy the next coin in Gold. Meanwhile...I'm going to the post office to mail out some geocoins. Sheesh...why does my life seem to revolve around geocoins so much.
