I had problems with Paypal after this transaction.

I won't be using Paypal again. Too risky

It seems that one or two (At least) of the E-mailed invoices I sent out have ended up in junk Mail folders (Rightly some may say!)

If you've pre ordered a Cornish Geocoin and not received an invoice then please contact me at: kacher@kammneves.co.uk

and i'll arrange to send you another one

Many thanks

January 14, 2007

Any updates ?

January 14, 2007

I really want a coin!

Might there be another order in the future??

1.2k · January 14, 2007

Hello peeps...

a) as per my email of 17th December to everyone who ordered a coin. I'm expecting delivery this week and will be mailed out shortly thereafter.

:blink: All 350 coins that I ordered have been sold (with the exception of 5 that are off around the globe on a special Cornish project).

c) There is a coin trading thread on the Kernow Kachers forum at Kernow Kacher Forum

d) I have no plans to order any further copies of this coin - despite the fact I know I could easily sell 150 more! Grrr... Wish I knew that a month ago...!

e) I guess this will maybe become an annual production.

er, does this mean that the coins have been to the UK and then went back to New Jersey? I can see your problem in the old game of spot the coins... but on the plus die, thay have been minted and are on the move... somewhere!!!

January 22, 2007

As long as they haven't been shipped via a certain cargo ship currently having its contents 'salvaged' on a certain West Country beach under old British salvaging laws Stuey.....save me a BMW motorbike when you take Ozzy for a walk

On a serious note it looks like they were sent back to NJ possibly due to them not being collected at the UK depot by the British distributor. I think you'd better tell the coin people so they can fire a rocket at someone.

Well as They will have travelled.... China - USA - UK - USA -UK - Peoples Republic of Kernow - UK - The Principality of Wales by the time you get yours... assuming of course they come straight back to the UK now... they may of course visit other countries on the way yet.... they would have a considerable mileage on them...

Latest news - just in...

-----------------------------

I contacted the USPS as this is what they told me - The package was entered

into customs and appears it was refused. When we receive the package it will

list the reason why it was refused. I will contact you as soon as we

acquire the package and we will reship it immediately. I apologize for the

inconvenience.

Thank you,

January 23, 2007

If we all give you the GC number of our nearest caches, can you get someone to drop them all into a cache in Spain, with missions to get to our local caches? It may be the quickest method and it would save you the postage :rolleyes:

Wjat a dadgum good idea... anyone know a Spanish Cache big enough for 15 KGs of Geocoins???

January 23, 2007

At this rate they will get here quicker in a balloon race :rolleyes:

Wonder why the UK customs rejected them? Perhaps a crack anti-cornish customs officer thought they might spark an outbreak in sudden holiday breaks to Cornwall...

Hello Steve,

I talked to USPS today; they said to give the package a few more days. They

also told me the insurance number does not correspond with the actual

location of the package.

All UK, European and Australian Coins were mailed from Cornwall today... So keep an eye on your letterboxes early next week...

Many thanks for your patience, this is the first coin I've been involved with and it's been a bit of a learning experience. I've written up what I've learned so far, so if anyones planning doing something similar then please feel free to ask for a copy.

Mutters about the Royal Mail being way too efficient and delivering 2nd Class mail the next day, what's the world coming to? Why can't they ship them via Chile or something....?

Anyway, the point being.. The Coin activation page will go live later today at..

http://www.kammneves.co.uk/activate

and thanks for the nice comments, maybe you'd like to go in post in the "What I got through the Letterbox thread" in the Geocoin forums... just to wind up the Americans who won't have theirs for a week or two yet! :laughing:
