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.

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.

Hmmm. Didn't know you were going to allow that.

That wasn't it. The eBay search in general didn't work at all. It didn't compile quick enough. Luckily I had this thread open in another window and F5ed it.

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.

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.

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.

I Just tried it both ways and it pulled up the listing. Sorry. It's not a perfect world. That's why I said I would post a link as well.

That worked great. :P 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. :P

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. :P

 

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. :P

JMBella,

 

I requested a total through one of the auctions. Once I get that invoice, payment will be forthcoming pretty quick. Hope that's ok.

Nevermind. It's combining them automatically.

Ok here is what my stuff says:

 

Paypal shows me at 2 golds

My Ebay section shows two golds

The auction shows me at 1 gold

Whowww, that was speedy!

Got 2 Gold and 2 Bronze and already PPed.

Thanks for setting it up in a way that international collectors also have a chance.

And now it's time to go to bed and dream about light-towers. It's 01.20 a.m. in Germany.

Have all a nice week-end.

A search for geocoin does not pull up either coin listing.

Searched: Limited Edition Lighthouse Series Geocoin

 

Results: 1 items found for Limited Edition Lighthouse Series Geocoin

BTW, setting aside the whining. Nice coin.

Thanks. Like I said, I was the guinea pig here. Next time I will not recommend folks use the search engine on ebay, instead wait for me to post the links. Other than that, I think it went pretty well.

 

Still 18 Bronze left!
