Sale process:

- The pre-sale will run for two weeks.

- After two weeks the final Geocoins will be ordered from the factory.

- The number of coins ordered will be nr_of_presale_ in_two_weeks * 2

- The Geocoins will then be manufactured (production time aprox 4 weeks).

- Presale will continue until coins arrive or 75% of the coins are sold in pre-sale.

- When the final coins arrive there will be coins available for direct sale (25-50% of the coins manufactured)

 

We know there are people that don't like pre-sales.

But pre-sale is the way of geocoin.se

We will continue to build our track record, hoping to gain your trust.

We believe in open communication and will keep you informed during the process.

Can you please clarify this portion of the description:

 

- The number of coins ordered will be nr_of_presale_ in_two_weeks * 2

- Presale will continue until coins arrive or 75% of the coins are sold in pre-sale.

- When the final coins arrive there will be coins available for direct sale (25-50% of the coins manufactured)

 

I don't see how this is possible. If you are ordering the number of presale coins "reserved" x 2, then how can you continue the presale until the coins arrive? Won't you be short then? How can you stop the pre-sale at 75% of the coins, since the pre-sale determines the qty of coins to order? Help.

I think it is...

If the number of coins sold in presale is 50 after 2 weeks he will order 100 coins.

Presale will continue untill the coins arrive or 75 of the coins are sold in presale.

The remaining coins will them be sold as in stock (after he is sure that no coin orders got missing in the mail I guess)

Very nice coins btw!

Example 1:

- In the first two weeks of pre-sale 100 geocoins are sold.

- 200 geocoins are then ordered from the factory.

- Pre-sale continues. And in the next two weeks another 50 coins are sold. 75% of the 200 coins are now sold. Pre-sale then ends. Guaranteeing that there will be coins available when the finished coins arrive.

- The 200 finished coins arrive.

- The 150 pre-sold coins are delivered.

- The last 50 coins are sold(hopefully) and delivered.

 

Example 2:

- In the first two weeks of pre-sale 100 geocoins are sold.

- 200 geocoins are then ordered from the factory.

- Pre-sale continues. But no more coins are sold.

- The 200 finished coins arrive.

- The 100 pre-sold coins are delivered.

- The last 100 coins are sold(hopefully) and delivered.

Just curious, I can't read it in the images, but what exactly does the incantation say?

I ordered two coins about an hour ago, and after just reading this thread, I decided to send a second email for one more coin... silver + foggy silver.

Please combine my two orders into one (a total of three coins). Thanks!

Title update for the OP.

[MotoCycleBoi]

Nenne_ who designed the coin wants to trade Bewitched geocoins for Turtle Geocoins.

Contact her through her profile.

[MotoCycleBoi]

Update:

• Coins now starting to arrive to Swedish coiners
  

I got a report where a coin had fell apart during transport.

The coin was put together and all was fine.

 

The Bewitch Geocoin consists of three parts; Outer ring, center and a pin that holds the center in place.

The little pin is similar to the pins in wristwatches.

Look out for the little pin so you don't loose it if the coin has disassembled.

[+Crowesfeat30]

Update:

• Coins now starting to arrive to Swedish coiners
  

Cool! This means they will be coming to us in the States soon too! Yay!!! Can't wait to see the ones I ordered in person!

Thank you!

Ordering in Euro worked fine

Got my set today My personal favorite is the silver/foggy silver version.

 

Do you have extra of those pins that holds the center in the outer ring? One of mine were broken and I can only find one part of it so I don't know how long it should be...

I don't have extra pins but I will order some.

[+PLnauta]

Hi

 

Got mine too. I think that those pins would give some trouble in the future, since they make the assembled geocoin so fragile.

 

But they are great geocoins .
