+tsunrisebey Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 For anyone who orders these coins and doesn't want the black and white one, let me know. I should have something of interest to trade for it in a couple of months I just don't want buy a whole set just to get the one I want. I really enjoy the set I currently own wish we didn't have to buy an the whole set to get that other one unless I'm not understanding something. I ordered the set, but i believe that you may purchase them separately. try here I might be off but it looks like its a goer Oh, guess I'm having a slow thinking kinda day, lol. Thanks. Curses! If I had been thinking quicker myself I would have ordered one and then taken you up on your trade offer. I take the prize for being the slow one today I haven't bought one yet, so if you order an extra black and white, I prefer to trade anyhow. I can always set something aside far enough in advance. Let me know.... and I won't order, I'll let you pick out what you want on the next coin coming out Quote

+Jackalgirl Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 I really like your new site. I placed a couple of orders (as usual, I didn't figure out to put it all into one order!). Can't wait! Just keep Adding items to the shopping chart. You can change the number of items you add by changing the "Amount" before you hit the "Add to cart" button. You can at any time before checkout change the content of your shopping cart. In the shopping cart you can change the "Quantity" and then hit "Recalculate" You can delete items in your shopping cart by hitting the red X button. Heh -- using your website system wasn't the problem (in fact, it was downright easy). The problem was that I waited until after I bought the first one to decide I wanted a second one. I should have figured out I wanted two right from the get-go. ; ) Quote

+AtlantaGal Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I ordered some. Just curious why a remint takes 4 weeks. It should take about 2 weeks. Quote
MotoCycleBoi Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 I ordered some. Just curious why a remint takes 4 weeks. It should take about 2 weeks. Not during Chinese New Year. Quote

That's the day you cut the presale. So even a week for it. 4 weeks still seems rather long. I can vouch for the fact that the mint is pretty slow these days. 2 months on the ET remint and closing in on 2 months for 30 remakes on the DT's. Not to mention artwork being returned has been pond water slow. That is just my experience since late October with past and current projects. Depending on the company someone is working through, I know mine has cut back on some hours, Chinese New Year and hard to say what is going on with workers considering their economy is not doing so great either. I'm finding it a bit frustrating but not much I have been able to do but be patient and keep asking the mint 'are you done yet?' Edited January 20, 2009 by tsunrisebey Quote
+avroair Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Are these still available, it says that there was nothing in my cart when I went to pay and that items were not in stock. Quote

+opalsns Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 They are all beautiful. I recently won a 1st Edition Birka in a cointest. It reminds me of old world treasure coins. Just Beautiful. So, Recently I learned about Birkas and Now I want them all. It's a poor chance I have anything you'd need and an even poorer chance of me finding someone who'd even want to trade. But I'll put in a "justincase". Thanx, Opalsns Quote
+AlliedOz Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Wow such quick mail service from OS I was lucky enough to score a couple of the antique silver Birkas a couple of months ago and was very impressed, but these versions have taken it to a new level. Beautiful! tsun I'll get your B&W in the mail tomorrow I made sure I did not touch it when I placed it on the scanner eheh MotoCycleBoi top product and top service again, Thank you. Quote
