+ThePetersTrio Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Is there a tentative date when these will arrive? The Caching Place says the sale of their bottle coins is the end of April so that would be my best guess for pre-ordered sets too. Seems like coins do get delayed sometimes though. I'm really looking forward to seeing them. Quote Link to comment
+ThePetersTrio Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 I have received notice from The Caching Place that the coins should arrive to them by April 30th and then they will send out the orders by the first week in May. Of course - as with every coin order - this is tentative. *fingers crossed* I have sent out emails to all who are going in on my order of 75. (Karin, I contacted Mousekakat for your coins as she's handling the mailing.) If you have not received this email, please contact me ASAP: ThePetersTrio@yahoo.com Thanks!! Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Just went looking for this thread, I wonder if the coins are still on time. Quote Link to comment
+guinea gal Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Wow-here I've been wondering why no one is posting on the Message In The Bottle forums on TCP...and all the action is going on right here! This was a wonderful idea-I can't wait until the coins come in. I hope they do another project like this in the future because I would definitely be interested again. The samples look awesome. In addition to the wine bottle coins, I also had another coin made (tax refund-yay!) and I am almost more excited about the wine bottle coin than the personal ones! Quote Link to comment

I wish I had the funds to go whole hog on the guinea pig coin. : ) But nothing that fancy. Just my little boy Geo enjoying a day in the forest. And they wont be in for awhile. So for now I will just sleep with the sample coins under my pillow.... Quote Link to comment

And don't worry, I understand there will be alot of "Behind the Scene Security" there to protect your valuables Quote Link to comment
+guinea gal Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Oh course I will bring them to ASP Geobash! I can't wait to show them off...and the wine bottles! Quote Link to comment
+MissAmerica1 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 What happened to the ones I reserved? could someone translate the front of the coin please Riveli Nascosto Segreto = It Reveals Hidden Secret......It's Italian....in a round about way BTW everyone, Sharon will be sending out invoices starting tonight so be on the lookout! Thanks again for joining in the FUN!! Thank you .... I like that : ) Invoice received and paid. Can't wait to see them Quote Link to comment
+MissAmerica1 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Did someone delete my name off the list? I responded MANY times and requested purple like the majority did in the forum. So which color or colors were minted? How many did you reserve for me? Hello - I've emailed everyone who has expressed interest in going in on this order and have asked them about color preference between green (7) and purple (5). I'm going to let the majority decide. Personally, I'd be happy with either color. USYoopers - I've got you down as a preference for purple which is why I didn't send you and email. Karin - I got your PM and yes I'll get you the 2 coins to Sweden if you will reimburse my mailing cost. I tried to PM you back but it says there is no account under your name. Strange. Feel free to reply here with your color preference and confirm you want 2 coins. Thanks! So far the list is: ThePetersTrio - 15 Usyoopers - 10 coins Bluemotmot - 5 coins Lucky Ducky - 2 coins Woodward Clan - 5 coins Fairyhoney - 8 coins MissAmerica1 - 6 coins Fossillady - 3 coins BirdmanofCT - 5 coins CathandKrisintheBUS - 5 coins Grodan & Fiabus - 2 coins Mousekakat - 1 coin If I missed you and you want coins - there are 8 coins left. Please let me know right away. If you are on the above list and you no longer want to order - please let me know ASAP. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+usyoopers Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 What happened to the ones I reserved? Fast and easy answer....they haven't come yet! I'm sure as soon as they are in that info will be posted here real fast. Quote Link to comment
+ThePetersTrio Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Did someone delete my name off the list? I responded MANY times and requested purple like the majority did in the forum. So which color or colors were minted? How many did you reserve for me? Email sent to you once again just now. I have kept every PM/email I've gotten from you and/or sent to you with the dates/times. I'm happy to send them all to you if you'd like to see the chronology of my attempts to contact you. I realize the PM/email system here doesn't always seem to work. I apologize for that but I've done the best that I can to communicate with the group and haven't had any other problem. FYI Purple was not the majority choice of our group - I'm not sure where you got that. I do know that other people made group purchases in purple. The majority of our group was for green by vote. Again, I apologize for any confusion but I have quickly and consistently responded to all/every email/PM I've received about this group order.

+LuckyDuckie Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I just found your email after I read in here (had to pull it out of my spam-folder... yikes!). I've sent you my info for address/paypal. If there was anyone that got inadvertently left off the list, or wants one... just let me know. I really wanted 2, but went in for 'up to five' to fill an order. Looks like all 5 are reserved for me, so happy to give some up if need be! (otherwise, I'll take 'em... no worries either way) Quote Link to comment

An email today indicated they are due to arrive at The Caching Place tomorrow. Yay! Hey LD - when are your "Cache-Aid" coins going to go on sale (the site says the end of April)? As a nurse, I absolutely LOVE those! Quote Link to comment

We will finish our inspection in the morning and then package them for shipping! Thanks again for your patience everyone!! Georgia & Sharon Quote Link to comment

LoriDarlin Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Hey LD - when are your "Cache-Aid" coins going to go on sale (the site says the end of April)? As a nurse, I absolutely LOVE those! Glad you like them!! I will be posting a thread on them when we know more....still don't know exactly when they will be done. We had the dies redone on them due to issues with it, so it put them a bit behind. Roughly 3 weeks give or take a few days probably. HOORAY that our bottles are here in the US and almost in our hot little hands!!! Quote Link to comment

+ThePetersTrio Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 Forgot to mention that these are huge and heavy. Yes - I was also surprised by how thick and big they are. BTW, for those who don't know, The Caching Place has them up for sale individually. Blue and purple are the colors I believe and both of those colors are gorgeous! Quote Link to comment
