+NCParrotheads Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 (edited) We have our design and are taking Pre-Sales of our NC Foothills Geocoins to be manufactured in March 2007. We are a small Club that has been around for about 2 years, and in order to foot the bill for the coins we are selling them in advance from our Website we must sell 150 to place the order. They will be trackable on Geocaching.com NC Foothills Geocoin Here was the design chosen which is also on the Store site. Particulars since so many asked.... 250 being Made, Coin is Silver, Enamel Paint, not 3-D, standard 1 1/2 inch. Paypal is going to be preference, I'm sure you can catch them on Ebay after we sell out. It looks like the time will be moved back. Order in March, Ship hopefully by mid-late April. Postage is included in the price to the US, Canada and Mexico. All others may private message me to determine postage. Any questions please Email me at NCParrotheads@yahoo.com Thanks, Mrs.Parrothead AKA Anne edit: <indirect link replaced with direct link by moderator> Edited January 13, 2007 by Mr. and Mrs. Parrothead Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 This is going to sound really lazy, but it would be helpful to list the details on this page versus making people click over to a storefront. Just the basics: Cost, size, type of paint (enamel, etc.), 3d, how many are being made, etc. It will help people make a quick decision. Good luck with the coin and your group. Quote Link to comment
CLAMM Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Looks like it will be a really nice coin. Normally I'd buy a couple but I don't want to pay for something and not get it for 4-5 months. Good luck! Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Looks like another nice coin, but like Clamm, I'll have to pass for now. That's simply too far in advance to have to pay for something. If you decide to revise the presale, do let me know. I'd be willing to pay once the coins are in transit to you from the mint.

+baelrati Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 and collecting money via paypal will probably cause problems aswell as paypal does not like people preselling such a long time in advance ... Quote Link to comment
keewee01 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Nice coin. I will wait until closer to the release before I make a decision. Quote Link to comment
+9Key Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Wow - long time to be holding on to people's money when it only takes 4 weeks or less get coins made. Quote Link to comment
+NCParrotheads Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 (edited) Well we are small enough that in order to place the order we have a certain amount we need to sell. 150 out of 250. As of today we are 1/3 of the way there. You are right supplier has told me 4 weeks from the time we order until I have them in hand. So I imagine the time frame will move back some but then I will need to package and ship. So if we order in March it will be at least late April. Paypal is going to be the preference this year sorry it was too hard last year to keep up with all the mess. I'm sure they will be on Ebay after we sell out so you might be able to buy them there. 1.5" Diameter 3.0 mm thickness 2D & Color both sides Silver metal finish Laser Engraving 250 Tracking Codes included Custom Icon included Edited January 13, 2007 by Mr. and Mrs. Parrothead Quote Link to comment
+NCParrotheads Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 I am placing the order in Feb. should have them first week in March and will start shipping as soon as I receive them. We sold 1/3 of our goal so far, so I have worked it out to have the coins done earlier than expected. Mrs.Parrothead Quote Link to comment

If you are still interested at that point I can send you a paypal bill instead of going through the store. MrsParrothead Anne Quote Link to comment
