I saw them for a split second ... btw, was there a limit on how many LE's one could order?

January 28, 2006

I didn't forget at all. Rushed home and was on the site 5 minutes before sale time. As soon as 8pm est hit I was refreshing (had been for the last minute before go live time and watching hte seconds tick down) When it had 45 second left before go live I hit refresh and the page took forever to load. Of course no LE's left by then and I have DSL. If they are going to sell coins like this they need to upgrade their system to handle the extra traffic.

So does anyone have an extra LE they'd like to trade or sell?

January 28, 2006

I d not understand? Where are the LE´s!?

Are this only for special member?

Thats not so nice!!

Ordered the regular!

best regards

Did the LE even come up for sale?

Yup, I tried to buy a few 30 secs after they went up for sale, but the system showed them sold out, then the window disappeared and only the regular coins were left.

January 28, 2006

I got two.

January 28, 2006

Did anyone get LE's? I refreshed at 8:00P and got locked out for 1 minute. Then LE's didn't even come up! <_<

January 28, 2006

I bought 4. I tried to get some LE, but wouldn't let me. <_<

January 28, 2006

Have a feeling with the option to buy in quantity someone purchased most of them in one shot

January 28, 2006

I got 2 of the LE, when I looked again they were gone.

Yes, I saw it, clicked 5 and hit Buy It! and it said out of stock, or what ever it says. Within seconds. Yikes. At least I got to SEE the LEs for sale box. I think this is a case of the VIP orders hogging all of the LEs. It will be interesting to see how that all plays out.

Ok, grabbed the LE, then when I went to pay it said unavaliable.

????????

Ended up with the regular.

****I am looking for trade of the LE if someone got extras.****

January 28, 2006

The LE never dropped down to buy.. That really stinks! What happened?

January 28, 2006

It was fun though wasn't it? I had fun! <_<

I have DSL and didn't even see the LEs at all at 8PM. So all I bought were 3 regular.

Looking to trade for an LE

I missed the Mississippi LE, someone check out my coin list and email me. thanks

January 28, 2006

Sounds like a lot of "under the table" deals may be going on.

I can't believe I saw the thing come up and they were already gone. Anyone want to trade a Mississippi LE for the glow in the dark frowny face above?

2k · January 28, 2006

The LE's did drop, I was able to get two then I hit a error page and could not pay.

January 28, 2006

AG, I have DSL as well and it NEVER dropped down to the area to buy it.

January 28, 2006

Did the LE even come up for sale?

Yes, the LE was up for about for all of 15-20 seconds, then it was gone. Had to be really, really fast.

January 28, 2006

It will be interesting to watch the e place in a few weeks to see who has them all

I also got to SEE it available, but clicked a qty and buy now and 'unavailable' <_<

I think it all of about 3 seconds for them to vanish.

January 28, 2006

I saw the LEs drop, then I click on it and tried to order few, but they were gone with in seconds. <_<

This may very well be true. My personal opinion is that the VIP groups shouldn't be able to buy the LE's like that, they should be limited only the standard coins. Or at the very least be limited to one LE per group member. What keeps one VIP group from buying all 150 of these LE's?

1k · January 28, 2006

I missed out on the LE's as well I think there should have been a limit as to how many LE's a person could buy <_< !!! I don't care to buy through the coin stores the old way on the forms was a lot more fun to buy and watch the sales !!! Anyone have an extra LE to trade ???

Well, I think there were more of these in LE than there will be for the England coins on the next sale. Now I'm wondering if anyone will get those, lol!

January 28, 2006

did anyone get any? or did they all goto VIP ?

January 28, 2006

I never saw the LE's either. Did get the regulars. Anyone that got an LE that is interested in a trade, contact me.

I agree with that statement VERY MUCH !!!

January 28, 2006

Never saw the LE's at all got locked out on refresh. We'll see what happens at 11:00... Ooops 9:00.

January 28, 2006

You pay a fee and can buy 25-100 coins with 1 click.

Well, I will not give somebody 250 bucks to "hold" for me so I can buy future coins that's a bunch of crap! Why 250? 50 bucks is enough. I don't trust people I don't know to give 250 bucks to, hell I don't lend that to friends!

January 28, 2006

I'll trade 2 Outdoorfamily coins for one of these if anyone is interested.

Got a couple Reg antique silver ones

but did'nt even see the LE's drop <_<

January 28, 2006

One solution to this might be to have a boycott on the site. No one buy any coins from the place then it would be unprofitable...yada yada yada...

Likelly to happen....not as long as there's e...

Well, I find it interesting that the little low quantity button hasn't appeared on the regular coin. That means that 500 have NOT sold out yet. So in a way, the store may have a hard time selling out large coin editions anyway.

I think they had raised their qty to 1000. At least that was mentioned earlier in the thread.

It is 1000, 500 for the 8pm sales and 500 at midnight.

Unfortunately, there was no way for me to become a VIP member to take advantage of the features, even though I've personally bought way more than $250 on the site. Oh well. Hopefully they will listen to our whining and improve their customer service. Or not, since they seem to be selling out just fine at the moment. <_<

January 28, 2006

I tried to buy just 1 LE and everything went through including transfer of funds on my paypal account, and I have recieved no error at all. But I went back and checked recent purchases on the account on their site and it is not listed.

So maybe I didn't get one? Who knows?

January 28, 2006

But they did get my money <_<

That's where I stand, I have bought WAY more than 250.00 and I think if they did good buss., they would consider that.
