+GPX Navigators Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Still available, I just put another in my cart...will buy an extra for you LB4T or GPX....if you'd like! I'll try again. Thanks Rod. Really great to meet you this weekend! Quote
+usyoopers Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Well, I think I got them. After having my cart emptied at least twice, session ended a couple times and one your password isn't right I grapped the silver and ran. Went back for the copper, I'm not sure how many times I had to refresh for that darned inventory message thingie...they finally came back, order went all the way through to paypal and order complete...now the copper says sold out, I hope I got them! Quote
+tadpole379 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Now it says sold out...I must have checked out just in time..though I had coins in my cart at 11:01, I didnt get my order to go through for 25 minutes Quote
+brumbjorn Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Yes! thank you for a gorgeous coin Tsun! I really look forward to getting these! *finally gets to be one of the cool kids onthe block* Quote
+keewee Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Ok now I am logged in but my cart is empty and the coins are unavailable. It says they are updating inventory. I really really do not like it when my cart is emptied. DITTO!!! Ditto me too... and at 3am... it's hard to cope with it! YAY - got some. Happy - back to bad now. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Quote
+MommyFinder Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 (edited) I figured out that you MUST be logged in BEFORE ordering...or that's how it worked for me! Go to the menu on the left and login FIRST!! Actually when I have done this in the past at TCP, the cart gets emptied and I get logged out. As a result, I always login at time of payment. Guess it varies, because I logged in 5 or 10 minutes before placing my order, and never got logged out. Edit to say: 'course, apparently I got my order in before the mad rush! That could have something to do with it. Edited July 25, 2007 by MommyFinder Quote
+tw3nty3ight Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 For those of you that missed out I have one up for trade. Of course not in hand yet. Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Both versions are SOLD OUT. Wow.....got my order in just in time! Sold out in 30 minutes or less. Quote
Sliver & Lucy Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Now it says sold out...I must have checked out just in time..though I had coins in my cart at 11:01, I didnt get my order to go through for 25 minutes you got lucky then,,, I had some in my cart a few times and it kept tossing them out and I had to go back and back and back.. never got one Quote
+keewee Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 For those of you that missed out I have one up for trade. Of course not in hand yet. How is the sofa? Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted July 25, 2007 Author Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks to everyone for hanging in there! I know some of you are disappointed, I'm really sorry. Thanks so much for supporting this coin! tsun Quote
Susie_Q Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Kept refreshing the page and finally it said "sold out". I can't believe it - I missed out on the Whale Trail coin, too. If anyone got an extra copper, I'd love to buy it from you. Thanks. Quote
+brumbjorn Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I'll have some for swap as well. More silver than copper though since it doubled my order when I got an error and then reloaded NO WAY was I going to take time to fix it and miss out like I did on another coin this week. Quote

+GPX Navigators Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I will say TCP handled the sale as best as could be expected and put up info as soon as they could. I never even saw the other coins the other night so this was a huge improvement. The cart emptying - not so good but whatever. Somehow I snuck in and got some. COngrat again Tsun. TCP makes gorgeous coins especially one with such a beautiful design. Quote
+Mr.Explorer3 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 For those of you that missed out I have one up for trade. Of course not in hand yet. How is the sofa? LOL must have not told the girlfriend about these ones either. All in jest 28. All in jest. Quote
+Rockin Roddy Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I did get my last order in (even though it did cost me extra shipping and handling)...have one available! LB4T or GPX...you have first options on this, just pay the full price I paid (and possibly the extra shipping to get it to you???)! Quote
+MommyFinder Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 For those of you that missed out I have one up for trade. Of course not in hand yet. How is the sofa? Quote

+Ryder3 & Better Half Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 ANOTHER fun thread! Boy, who ever thought that ordering coins could get your blood boiling in the morning! ALMOST as good as that first cup of coffee!! LOL!! That makes us 1 and 1! 1 lost battle, 1 WON! We FINALLY got our order through after losing everything in our cart 6 times! WHEW!! NOW for coffee!!! BTW: We have a copper to trade for an FSM. Any takers? First come, first served, PLEASE don't crash our e-mail! LOL!! BEAUTIFUL coin Tsun! Quote
+Mr.Explorer3 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I have one of each for trade as well as a FSM for trade....accepting offers in e-mail.... Quote

I may try this.... Quote
+LadyBee4T Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Finally got an order to go through after being dumped and logged out several times. I wanted to change the shipping address but didn't dare. I found that clicking on the money order rather than paypal got me through faster and that's how I finally got the order. Now I'm 1 for 2 this week. Quote
+usyoopers Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Checked my email, both orders did go through! I will have an extra of either copper or silver to trade for either finish of FSM. Quote
+Rockin Roddy Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I did get my last order in (even though it did cost me extra shipping and handling)...have one available! LB4T or GPX...you have first options on this, just pay the full price I paid (and possibly the extra shipping to get it to you???)! You are too kind Rod. Thanks but I am good. Very nice of you! Not a prob GPX...glad you got through!! Great meeting you at the BASH! I'll have to wait to see if I do have an extra or not... Quote
+nicolo Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Arrrgh! I lost out on this one as well. That's what I get for talking to my wife on the phone when the sale started ( well, she's more important anyway ). However, if anyone has any extries to trade, please check out my trading list. I also have other more recent coins that are not on my list, please see the trading thread where I'm looking for a FSM coin for these other coins. Thanks. Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted July 25, 2007 Author Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks again all for supporting the Earth Turtle Looks like some orders are just slow to showing they went through. Nothing like crashing their site, lol. tsun Quote
+PengoFamily Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Despite the minor glitches I think this sale went pretty well. I will also have an extra copper to trade....maybe for a GPS Adventure Maze please???? You can email me at: PengoFamily@gmail.com Thanks! Quote

Or will any more be listed later? Well, in any case, it looks like a beautiful coin! Nice job tsunrisebey! -hybridgeek Quote
+The Walkabouts Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Another very nice geocoin we are adding to the growing list of coins our dial up was too slow to get Quote

+MommyFinder Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Snagged me a turtle while they were in season. Good Job Tsun! Awwwww, that is TOO cute! Quote
+LadeBear68 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Just being curious, why were there only 250 coins made? Quote
LoriDarlin Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Its a beautiful coin Tsun!!! I love it!!! ps I will also trade one of these if anyone has an extra FSM in any metal. Thanks Quote
+~tasia~ Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 oh geez! i missed this one too??? i hope somebody wants to trade for something i have.. i will have to redo my coin list of available traders during the weekend... Quote
+keewee Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 3am... 3AM... WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!!!! That was far, far too early to go through the 'geocoin buying pressure cooker'!! My brain completely woke up after that - I was stuff for trying to get back to sleep. Groan... Now eating my breakfast trying to maintain conciousness.... zzzzzzzzz Thanks for another great coin Steph. I can't wait to get these in hand. They look so amazingly awesome! Once I get them I will have some to trade, but my first offer will be to some locals whom I know wanted some, but were not game on dragging themselves out of bed at that hour. Quote
+icydove Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Also wanting a copper turtle. Check out my trading list. Thanks Quote

+Smort78 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Finaly a coin that is released at a decent time (5 PM here) and I totaly forget about it... Grrrrrr Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted July 25, 2007 Author Posted July 25, 2007 (edited) Your thoughts please.... I've received alot of emails from you who have missed out on the Earth Turtle coins. I'm sorry, I do not have extras. I knew these would be popular but had no idea they would sell so overwhelmingly fast Thank you). So, the idea was tossed around today about a "pre-order" for some more turtles. I want to know what you guys think? This gives everyone a chance to get some. I'm leaning toward a different two-tone metal scheme altogether; if we do this.....opinions, thoughts, suggestions. A decision will be made within a day or two on what will be done and I'll post to let you know what's up. So speak your mind... tsun edit to clarify some things (2 tone and pre-order) Edited July 26, 2007 by tsunrisebey Quote
+Cheesy pigs Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I must admit, the gold is my favourite, so something in a nice shiny metal would be good (just my opinion of course). MommyFinder - did you get a chance at snaffling some coins???? Quote
