+Six Little Spookies Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I want some! I lived on The Rock from 1988 to 1991. I spent 3 years at Kubasaki High School, and we moved away right before my Senior year. I was so bummed. I tried to work out all sorts of deals so I could stay and finish up there. I'm hoping my Air Force career will take me back there before I'm done. Quote Link to comment

+Kealia Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 (edited) Reply with the price? Why the cloak-and-dagger? Edited May 11, 2008 by Kealia Quote Link to comment
+Clan Doyle Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 No cloak and dagger, I've just never done this before, and don't want the topic to get closed because I posted something wrong. Also, I am now offering an LE version in Gold. The price will be the same, but you can only order 1 LE with every 5 Nickel coins you order. If it sounds like I'm trying to drive up the count, I am. The cachers here on island would really like to get the custom icon. Thanx to allwho have responded so far. Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Ok, bump my order up to 5 nickel and 1 gold LE. Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Since the coin is trackable on this site, you can talk about pricing, shipping, quantities, etc. I was just saying that most people post all that information up front so the buyers have a good idea of what they are looking at. The only things you can't discuss are non-trackable coins. Sounds like the quantity will be whatever gets ordered, right? Good luck with the icon and reaching 250. I'll be curious to see the samples as the artwork looks good. Quote Link to comment
+bluecherry Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I already emailed with my order. Thanks for putting this together. I loved Okinawa while we were there Quote Link to comment
+Clan Doyle Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Okay, so Oak Coins says it'll be 2 weeks until I get the samples. I know alot of you are thinking about ordering, but want to see the coin. So...I'm going to extend the deadline to a couple days past the posting of the sample pics. I'll post in this topic when I know the date. I have also sent out invoices to everyone who already placed orders. If you ordered and didn't get one, please drop me a line. Keeping track of all this is hard work! - Joe Quote Link to comment
+Clan Doyle Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) The sample pics are in! The clock is officially started for the end of pre-sales. The deadline will be midnight PST on May 24. After that, I have to get the final numbers to OakCoins so we can get them out ASAP. To order, email me at phestr@gmail.com Edited May 24, 2008 by Clandoyle Quote Link to comment

+guinea gal Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Oh dear...I can't believe I didn't see this thread until now, of course when it is closed! I don't suppose anyone might have ordered a few extras and have one for purchase? I have family in Okinawa...it would be nice to have this representation of their home. Quote Link to comment

+Clan Doyle Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 The rest of the coins came in this morning! I will get all of them packaged this weekend, and send them out on Monday. Thanx to everyone who participated in this project, and if you missed out, contact me. There are a couple people who were VERY generous in thier orders and have plenty extra, and I will lead you to them. Quote Link to comment
