+SeabeckTribe Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Got my order in but it was not a pleasant experiance. Everytime I clicked to "continue" it would tell me my cart was empty. When I would back arrow it kept telling me I needed to log in. But my pesistents was rewarded. Quote Link to comment
+nicolo Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 They made 1000 of these coins so I don't think they'll sell out fast People buy fewer coins at the $10.00 mark. But it's a coin AND a pin ... I ordered 2. Quote Link to comment
ParentsofSAM Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I had no problems and I even ordered a few more coins at the same time. Quote Link to comment

+CACHE KRAWLER Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Got my order in but it was not a pleasant experiance. Everytime I clicked to "continue" it would tell me my cart was empty. When I would back arrow it kept telling me I needed to log in. But my pesistents was rewarded. I have tried for the last hour to get PayPal to verify my card info so I can order a couple of these coins and they keep telling me it's wrong.....IT'S NOT! Any hints as to what to do? Anybody??

ATMouse Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I dunno, it pitched a fit for me, too...I ended up starting at the begining and going through the whole process before it took it - then it said it hadn't, but I got the confirmation on my email so I'm keeping my fingers crossed the deal was done.

It took me about six tries to get it to take, including a 30 minute break between the fourth and fifth try. Instead of hitting the back arrows, just shut the session down, open a new window and try it fresh each time. Maybe I was just lucky, but that seemed to be the trick anyway. Quote Link to comment

+Redwing_dave Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 I got a notice via email that my order shipped on 5/2 Me too. Excited ! Nothing here either. Strange. Happy Original Stash Day!! If I'm not mistaken, Team 360 is on site today doing some maintenanence I just spoke with the folks handling the packaging and shipping of the Original Stash coins and pins. They are filling orders at this very moment. Some orders have already gone out, but with an issue of this size, every coin isn't going to be shipped at the exact same time. They are prepping a large shipment for this afternoon. If you haven't received a notice yet, you should receive it before long. Thanks to everyone that purchased the coins. I will get my first peak at the finished product this afternoon, but I have it on good word that they turned out AWESOME! Quote Link to comment
+hydnsek Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I visited the Original Stash two days ago, May 1, a timely precursor to the coins - can't wait to get mine! No shipping notice yet. Quote Link to comment

My camera is out on loan right now, but I have to tell you, THESE COINS ARE HOT!! WOOOOHOOOOO!! (anyone who is reading this and was an original contributor to the Plaque effort in Portland needs to get in touch with me, if I don't track you down first...I have your very own personalized Plaque coin waiting to ship out to you) Quote Link to comment

+kayakerinme Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Got mine today and they look great! But now that I look at it, I wonder why the creators didn't use a picture of the GPSr that was used to find that first stash rather than a more modern eTrex? Or was that what was used? Quote Link to comment

No one knows what type of GPS was used for finding the Original Stash, so we decided to use the 'work horse' of the geocaching world, the Yellow Etrex, which most of us had at one time or another...

+vds Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Ours came today also and it looks great Mine too near Seattle - especially like the pin (a little brighter highlighting). Quote Link to comment
+RickBlick & Chick Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I definately missed out on this. My son was home on leave and I introduced him to geocaching. He's back in Texas caching up a storm before he heads for Korea. He called me only 3 days ago to send me to GCGVOP, he was so excited. I finally get back into the forums and see this geocoin! Long story short....anyone purchase 1 or 2 extra that they'd be willing to sell? Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Got mine yesterday - it's a beast. I can always use it as a coaster! Thanks. Quote Link to comment

Jake - Team A.I. Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 These are some very nicely done coins. I was lucky enough to be one of the people that got to sign the original plaque before it was placed. From what I remember, this coin is almost the same size. Quote Link to comment

I will take care of it personally. Just let me know when and where you want to meet up, and I will exchange it for you with one of mine. From what you've told me in a PM, it sounds like a post-production mishap, not a manufacturing flaw. No worries. Quote Link to comment
+budd-rdc Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Original Stash Geocoin & Pin with Wyoming Geocoin for size comparison. I got an e-mail notice from TheCachingPlace on Friday (5/5) so I expected a delivery of today, and I was right! Very minor blemishes (2-3 dust particles) on one, but otherwise excellent. The pins are perfect. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 I can see the blemishes from your picture. For $10.00 I would expect no blemishes. It appears that black does not do very well on coins. Quote Link to comment
