+ST13PILOT Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Ha ha, yep Really though, I'm posting from a little 5x5' study room at the medical campus ha ha ,, ok ok ,, Im sorry , Ive been quite busy with the mix,getting everyones favorate songs from millions of tracks on records,cd,s and mp3 is alot of work . I'd have got back to you guys yesterday but I had to fix the lawnmower then mow the yard. I only got about three quarters of it done, didn't get any of it raked. When I get that finished I still have to take the weedeater to the entire perimeter to knock back the blackberries and poison oak, then pick up all the downed limbs and debris from the winter. Then last night, just after I stepped out of the shower, my wife came to tell me that the dryer isn't heating up so I get to replace the heating element or buy a new dryer, TODAY! And I'm having a heck of a time keeping the wild turkeys ran out of the yard without scaring the deer off. Scavok, whatever that is you're studying, it sounds dreadful. Be sure to wash your hands before you eat (or handle any of MY coins). And good luck with the test! DJ, Anything from Steppenwolf, just play it LOUD! Looking forward to those coin pictures!

+Pabloturtle Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Ouh! Ouh! You're killing me here. That Blue on Silver is GREAT!! Well Done! Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Ooh!! Love the Green, Red & Blue on Silver!! Will these (except the Blue, of course) be available in your store? Gotta get some of 'em. I'm hoping I will soon have something to trade for the Blue/silver too! CF30 Quote Link to comment
+Chickahominy Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Oh my! Those last two blue ones are heavenly! Beautiful coins, Scavok. Quote Link to comment
+ST13PILOT Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Wow, those are sweet. Hope you've got my name on the list of folks that are going to have a shot at them. Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) There are a couple on on ebay right now that I'm using to raise some funds for another coin's samples due in a couple months But yes they will be available at regular price later this summer or fall. There are only a few of the trader versions so I'm being kind of picky when it comes to trades (though offers are always nice!). None of these are LE's or anything, but the 2 tones are going to be more expensive to reproduce so will be a small in-hand inventory type sale. Edited May 12, 2009 by scavok Quote Link to comment

Presales for a remint of these Tree of Life coins are open for those that missed the first round (and anyone else who wants yet another!). Included in the sale is a mystery finish coin for anyone who wants to give it a try - you'll see the finish when it arrives in your mailbox Presale link: https://www.scavok.com/shop/index.php?main_...x&cPath=6_5 Additional Photos: https://www.scavok.com/geocoins/tol.php Quote Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I ordered two of the Mystery versions and that went back & ordered a red/silver & a green silver. Can the shipping be combined? CF30 Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 Yes they can, if you make multiple orders that are part of the same minting just select the walk-in/in-person/free shipping for the second one Quote Link to comment

The orders have already been paid for & processed. No worries, my mistake. CF30 P.S. I'd still love to trade for a blue on silver... Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Took Care of it! ------ Just an FYI that the tree of life remint presale is ending Sunday night at midnight MST. It may be open a little later than that, but that is the latest I can guarantee Don't say I didn't warn you! I don't know if/when there will be another!

+scavok Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) UPDATE There was a hiccup in the mystery finish but it has been resolved. It added about a week to final delivery time but is now under way This will be my favorite finish of the coin, I believe! Rustic looking Edited September 18, 2009 by scavok Quote Link to comment

+scavok Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 The coins are finished and on their way to me! As a nice bonus to anyone who is interested - sales are open for the 2 tone coins!!! (scavok.com subscribers knew in advance, but there are plenty left as of now...). TOL sales There are also tengwars, Night & Day, and journey coins available if you hurry Quote Link to comment
+Howlingmoon Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 lol I just checked, and it seems Tengwars and Night and Days are already sold out. LOL SO glad I finally got a Tengwar! Quote Link to comment
+Sunrayers Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The ONLY way you could keep me awake until 2:45AM is the chance to get a Tengwar NAWWAL or 2 !! Definitely worth losing sleep over Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 Yea so much for the theory that stock would last longer in the AM hours! Sorry for the late start - I didn't anticipate 50+ people to be logged in and waiting. My website's resources are prioritized to the shopping side, so when it gets bogged down it affects the admin side primarily (thus the stock edits and on/off switches!). Quote Link to comment

I just hope my husband never finds out exactly how much I've spent. Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 Whew! The presold coins were received and packaging started tonight. My girlfriend and I are planning on working on them until around 1am. I'm hoping school will be cancelled tomorrow (let it snow let it snow let it snow!). If so I will get the packing done and the domestic orders shipped at a minimum (those customs forms take forever). I received some *gentle* prodding from a customer today to keep you guys more informed, which you all wholly deserve and I apologize for not doing so. Finishing these coins obviously took longer than expected and I had hoped to package the "in-hand" sales items along with the previous presale. Time flew faster than expected while waiting for those presold coins and the in-hands have now been in-hand for a week. Again, sorry! It is all being worked on now and you will have these awesome coins very soon. BTW - the mystery finish looks frikkin awesome The color isn't exactly what I hoped, but in bright light it achieved what I wanted. When you receive them be sure to open them before you even get in to your house so you can see the color! Quote Link to comment
+Howlingmoon Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 WOOT SO can't wait to get these! And I am SO glad I ordered the mystery finish! hehe Now the mailpeople just need to hurry up already! rofl Quote Link to comment

+wildhawk Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Thanks for the update on the coins, I was getting worried that they might have gotten lost in the mail. Quote Link to comment
+scavok Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 About 80% of the orders have been shipped, including a lot of the international. All the ones that are left are international and just need the customs forms filled out. I will update all the orders' status on my website on Monday which will also send out individual email confirmations. If you do not get a confirmation by Tuesday morning email me and I'll double check it. Just wait for the "length of my receipts" cointest on these P.O. visits BTW - in this batch of coins I also received new and improved samples of the 2009 tengwars. Watch that thread once these have all been completed . Quote Link to comment
