Contact me via my profile e-mail. Let me know the total recieved AFTER shipping, paypal, and e-bay fees and I'll add it to the list. You can also let me know if you want to send the donation to me first or to ladycacher directly.

Also, thanks to Flying Spaghetti Monster for donating this coin.

Another listing added.

 

Includes a limited Edition Gold Equator coin!

You may want to change the picture of the Equator coin. I believe you received the Gold version and the picture is the Antique Bronze version

 

Can you send me a picture of the gold or post one here that I can use?

 

 

 

Thanks

 

I am not in town , not able to take a picture. There is a pic on eba% though

 

I am really happy to see all the kind hearted people donating. Neat group we have here

Hi Erik

 

First let me say thanks for taking on such a time consuming effort. I took a look at my Decoder LE that you put on eBay. You have it listed as a copper coin. It is an antique gold coin with epoxy. Also, you used the proof of the firefighter cion, which looks more silver than antique bronze. I can create new pictures for you which include the icon in the picture also.

 

Thanks.....Stacy

Stacy, that will be nice if you can. I'll have to see if ebay can let me change that though. Sorry for getting the information wrong.

I meant to send some coins last week, but life got in the way and got me very busy. If I wait and mail them the day after Memorial Day is it too late?

 

No it won't be to late. Any donation of coins is appreciated.

Cool, thanks! I will mail them the day after Memorial Day. :ph34r:

Just an update. Sent several coins to Evil Chicken. (Thanks again for the assistance)

 

Watch for those coins in the next several days.

 

I will be out of town Tuesday through Sunday. So I may not get any more coins listed until next week.

 

I appreciate everyone being patient. Plus it's probably better to not list them all at once. That way buyers buying more than one coin don't have to try to purchase a bunch of coins all at once.

 

I plan on sending the first donation to Ladycacher next week some time. I will post the information here or/and on the web page.

 

With bids already paid minus paypal fees, shipping and ebay fees.

 

$166.33

 

Bids that are still open but should end while I'm out of town. Currently at:

 

$227.78 Keep the bids coming!

I sent 5 coins. Yuu have me down for 2 and then you have my other 3 showing as unknown...they were in my package (Finland, Indiana, GAA) along with the Lowracer and the Yosemite....

 

Thanks, I had opened a few packages and couldnt' remember which ones those came out of. I'll get the corrections posted.

Well, well, well, isn't that lovely. Apparently grudge can rear its ugly head in the most dispicable of ways. Someone decided to turn in my auction listing for CENT5's New Jersey Coin and have it shut down.

 

This community truly represents the best and worst of people, I am very disheartened at the moment that there are people would stoop so low.

Before I break out the camera, does anyone have pix of the following?

 

Tennessee 2005

Skirtlifter 2006

New Jersey

EU

Groundhog Day

 

Thanks in advance if you do!

 

Hey

 

I think my coin pages for these coins has pictures of NJ, EU and Groundhog day, you are welcome to Right Click and save them. :o

 

OR NOT... anyway if you need images off of my coin pages go for it... sorry I was WRONG. :sad:

Based on what?

 

I agree, what would cause an auction to be pulled. If they wouldnt pull a moun10bike coin, why would they pull this?

Based on charity auction regulations. Interesting to because some other people's are still up and the wording was identical.....

 

Sigh....

 

Anyone that READS the item listings will know they don't SAY anything about a charitable organization. They clearly state WHERE the money will be going. Also, anyone bidding on one of the items most likely knows what is going on. If they don't my listings have a link to the website and yours clearly state they can contact you.

 

Sounds like someone just doesn't like it when people try to do good things for people.

 

Unfortunately since this is a public forum where kids can read I can't post my actual disgust in whoever would do such a thing.

 

If they want to try to shut down what we are doing we will just simply take out where the money is going and put the codeword 'ladycacher' in the auction or something. I'm going to stop typing now because I'm to disgusted and don't want to end up posting something that is inappropriate.

 

It sounds like someone out there just doesn't like Ladycacher. However, if you like a person or not you would think with the situation she is going through that they would be able to get over it.

 

For whomever that person is I am stating this publically right now.

 

Ladycacher never asked me to do any of this. She doesn't know me and I don't know her. She NEVER asked any of us to help her.

 

Whoever did such a think really needs to grow up and get a life. If we are doing something that you don't agree with than just to participate. It's that simple.

Why don't you copy the full text eBay sent to you in email? Cause if it was just for the word "charity" in the title, then you're right, many of us have listed these type of auctions before with no trouble. So I would like to know the specific policy that was broken and if it's a recent change to their auction terms.

 

Seriously though, none of you have any basis for pointing fingers. Sometimes ebay's police just find something and shut your listing down. I have had it happen recently too, tho not for a charity listing. I emailed them back and asked for specific guidance on how my listing should appear and not break the guideline. They provided it and I have had no trouble since.

 

I think it would be wise to consider ALL possibilities before the accusations start flying.

Folks, while I will say my last post will go against what I'm about to say, let's not turn this thread into something ugly.

 

What has happened has happened. At this point it doesn't matter if it was ebay or someone else that reported the bid.

 

Let's keep this thread positive and in relation to what we are trying to accomplish.

 

I apologize for my earlier post. Let's not turn something good into an angst ridden thread.

 

Thanks

Eric

That's horrible news :ph34r: but I'm sure we'll still manage to help out. Any more pictures or updates of coins? Thanks to everyone who has helped out and to Eric K (and anyone else who's helping) for such a generous contribution of time and energy to bring our community a little closer. Makes me proud to be a geocacher :ph34r:

We have some samples of the 2006 BC Geocoin which we've been wondering what to do with. We'd like to donate them to the cause if you think they'd be worth anything. These are the ones we got from the mint before approving the final production. We also have samples of the LMGA. These are both a bit different from the final coins and aren't trackable of course. Do these hold any value or should we put them in 'File G'?

We'd also like to donate a trackable 2006 BC Geocoin and an LMGA.

I would certainly bid on a "production sample"......it would be a very cool thing to have.

I think it's a great idea, go for it, put them up for auction, I will bid! :laughing:

I would think that production samples would have high collectability due to the extremely limited nature of the coin itself - there would be no others exactly like it!

Landsharkz.ca will donate 3 of the 4 production samples of the 2006 BC Geocoin plus a new unactivated trackable 2006 BC Geocoin. We have noticed that the mint actually numbered the LMGA coin, so they look like the final product. We won't be able to donate those as the numbers will duplicate coins which LMGA members have as their own. I cannot image the strains on Ladycacher's family right now; we certainly hope that these production samples will bring some financial relief and ease the stresses they must be experiencing. Our prayers are with them at this time. God Bless.

After several days I'm finally back at home.

 

I just packed up a few orders to go out. I'll get more of the coins listed this week. I'm also still playing catch up with some other things after being out of town.

 

Watch for new listings during the course of this week.

 

Thanks

Eric
