+Team FIREBOY Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Tsun... I am not complaining about the sales time. Actually it would be a perfect time for me ( I am a hour ahead of you). But since I am going to be on my way to GR I wanted to make sure I got my coins...I just can't miss ANY coins you put out there. I know I am spoiled huh!!! I wish you were going to be there. I'll just have to do e next contract in MONTANA! Jodi Jodi, Let me talk with Rick and if he says I can I will try to purchase some coins for both of us. I'll be up before the sale time anyway since I have a stupid dentist appt. at 8:40am. Kelly, Thanks so much, but I have it set up already. YAY!!!!! Can't wait to see you again! Quote

As usual, I'm sick to my stomach, lol. These will be the links for the sale, they don't show any stock available but they will when it goes live.

+GeoKs Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I'm not having luck trying to check out...keep getting an error I had the same problem - after you log in using your nickname be sure to scroll down and click the box to show that shipping address is the same as billing...then you should be able to proceed to checkout. I finally got the order through!! Quote
+Cheesy pigs Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I got mine too - the site was quick and great - until 8am - when it tried very hard to die on me. Luckily, it pressed on - but you could hear it groaning with the weight of all the shoppers in there!!!!! Quote

+0R0B0RUS Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Congrats Steph on another quick sell out! To frakkin quick for me to get any though! Quote
+KrazyTrollz Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I had a stinky experience....... I had all 4 in my cart....... was already preregistered, so figured it would go ok..... went to check out and couldn't do so.... watched them all disappear.......... what fun. so glad I wasted my time doing this today, sighhhhhhhhh. they are such pretty coins, I really wanted them too!!!!!!!!!! bummer!!!!!!!!!! Quote
+rsfish1 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Tsun, I am sure you will be in here reading through later today. But did anyone else have it where it did not charge shipping fees? I definitely need to get that paid since it did not charge me any. Quote
Maine Family Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Got to love dial up at a coin sale. I had a nutella but by the time I got to checkout it was gone. Nice coin though, Quote
+Roaring_Fork Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I ordered an extra Blue and Purple. If anyone is interested in a trade please let me know. Thanks Tsun for a perfectly handled sale. Greg Quote
+Roaring_Fork Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) Double post. Sorry Greg Edited September 5, 2008 by Roaring_Fork Quote
+emzernask Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 i have one extra nutella & one ocean mist for thems that missed out. send me an email. thanx tsun Quote
+cache_in_hand Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I had one of each in my cart and tried to check out and it said my user name was already taken. Tried to use another name and all items gone. So sad.... Quote
+Band of Bradys Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I ordered an extra Blue and Purple. If anyone is interested in a trade please let me know. Thanks Tsun for a perfectly handled sale. Greg I guess it's perfect for those that got coins. Once again, I was on the site at 10:07 EST (8:07 MT) and put a coin in my cart, then it said none were available. Disappointed again Quote

But did anyone else have it where it did not charge shipping fees? I definitely need to get that paid since it did not charge me any. Hello Randy, are you sure shipping is not charged? In my case the shipping costs are not mentioned on the invoice, but it was charged at the end of the payment process and so also payed through paypal. Quote
+stellarscapes Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Oh No, they're all sold out. I've been waiting for this sale for days and I overslept. I set my alarm clock, but ?????. I was about 15 minutes too late. Does anyone have any extras that they might want to trade? Quote

+AtlantaGal Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 My order went through. Mark if you read this I got everything you requested. Steph, when you read this, the other gmail addy bounced. So I sent the info back to the other address we were conversing on. I'm sure you can forward it to the proper account when the server recovers. Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted September 5, 2008 Author Posted September 5, 2008 A quick note..... Well the coins way faster than I had anticipated, thanks everyone! I am currently printing invoices. I know some of you emailed with questions. I can't answer them at this moment because I have to work through all orders in order, verify payments, etc. My system is not set up like others, it's not who gets to paypal fastest. Without going into alot of details, some coins oversold but I did account for that happening by putting a lesser stock amount to purchase. I had to go in a delete the coin as soon as I saw it oversold, so if you had one in your cart when you went to checkout and I had deleted the item, this may be why you couldn't pay. I DON"T know if this is a fact. I won't know anything for sure until I work through all the invoices, so please be patient it may take me more than a day to work through everything. I know for most people this worked smoothly and I'm glad. I know there are things to improve but many times it isn't until the first big sale that you know where the issues are so you can work them out. Ok, as soon as I know what went wrong for some of you, I will email you. Thanks all for the amazing support! Quote
+PJPeters Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) Sounds like most everything went well, except for the all-too-quick sell-out (is anyone surprised?). I'd gotten all three that I wanted (only 3! I don't ask for too much, do I?) and proceeded to try to check out. But my password didn't work. So an email to retrieve my password. Hmm... it's not quite what I entered. Okay, let's try to create a new account. By the time all was said and done, I'd managed to lose all but one of the coins, which is probably sold out, too. Typical of my luck. And, since I'm 'up home' visiting family, I'm on dial up. Ugh! Looks like I'm fated to never get a first-issue of a TSun coin. Not to say I'll give up, though! Edited September 5, 2008 by PJPeters Quote
+tite lines Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Got the 2 we were looking for! Didn't have luck with the turtles before so I am surprised that it worked out this time! Yipee!!!!!!!!! Thanks Tsun.......love your coins! Quote
+luckycharmer Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 CONGRATULATIONS Steph - 8 minutes didn't leave me enough time to get an Ocean Mist - I didn't even get the page to pull up until after 9:30 and I started trying at 9:01. Guess I'll have to try even earlier next time. UN-luckycharmer (this time) Quote
ELTADA Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 well, I was up at the cottage and had to drive to the nearest camp store to get access to the Internet (and pay to use it!) but of course I was too late to get any! if anyone is interested in trading, i have a few newer coins incoming so feel free to pm me and see if I have anything from my tiny collection you might want. when i get back home, i will post some options in the trading thread. sigh...

RedShoesGirl Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 well, that did not go well at all! oh well, looks like ebay time for me, unless someone has an extra ocean mist and crimson to trade or resell. sigh lara Quote
+The Walkabouts Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Yep....we also missed out on the turtles....toooooooo slowwwww I guess. Picked up some extra dragonflies to hopefully trade for the turtles we missed out on. Quote
+Droo Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 ya, that's pretty much what happened to me...it will be interesting to see how many of these start showing up on ebay now as the resellers seem to have gotten their share None has been listed yet. Quote
