+EScout Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 I looked and did not find a topic specifically related to trading coins. Some other topics moved towards people posting trade info. I have made 2 trades by mail with other Cachers for coins and figure there should be a spot where others can list their wants, needs and offers. Anyway, here is the first post with my listing: Have several California coins, new, unregistered, never in the wild. Have one Washington State coin, also unregistered. Want to trade for: other state coins (that are not "owned" and not registered with the expectation that they be moved to another cache.) Email me with your offer or post here. Thank you. Quote
+KC0GRN Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 I'd trade you a west tennessee geocoin for a california one, but sadly I'd feel like I'd be cheating a bit, as you can still purchase tennessee ones (I think). Quote
+donbadabon Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Great idea. I have the following unregistered, and in the baggies: California Pennsylvania Washington State Looking for any other unregistered, in baggies (read: bright, shiny and new!). Quote

+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 Is there a resource of all the places selling Geo-coins? It would be nice to buy the "base" coins that are in production and then hunt those that are not. If anyone wants Canada coins, they can still be purchased. Quote

+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 Thanks! I really appreciate the link. Meanwhile, I do have 11 Canadian Coins I ordered. If someone does want to trade rather than order themselves -- let me know and I will "reserve" one for you. (they should be here mid-week next week) Quote

+MrCOgeo Posted January 12, 2005 Posted January 12, 2005 Always interested in trades for my MRCOGEO GeoTokens. I love trading for GeoCoins, wooden nickels and homemade GeoTokens.

+vds Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 Looking for California, Texas, Idaho coins. Can trade Washington now, Colorado/Calgary after they ship (date unknown), and WestTn (after they arrive in a couple/few days). Reasonable $$$ also fine. Quote
+kiltsurfer Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 I would really like a new KY coin if anyone has one to trade. I have a Calif, Canada, Washington, Texas, or Tenn coin to trade. Quote
+bazzle Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 I have several Oregon coins, new in Air Tite cases. I will trade for anything except: Washington California Conejo Michigan Moun10bike USA Also keep your eyes out for Oregon coin version 2. We will probably be redesigning them for the spring 2005 run.

Moun10Bike Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Also keep your eyes out for Oregon coin version 2. We will probably be redesigning them for the spring 2005 run. Will you post a thread about them in the NW forums, or will you only advertise them on the Oregon or PDX sites? Quote

Idaho coins are still a couple weeks from delivery. I'll have a few for trade when they get here. Quote

+Team LightningBugs Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 I am interested in having a couple unactivated 2004 USA Geocoins. Unfortunately, I have nothing to trade except our signature wooden nickels, but I would be willing to pay something reasonable. If anyone can part with one or two or if you know of a source I can use, please email me. Quote
+Nazgul Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 I have unregistered California geocoins that I'd be interested in trading for geocoins that I do not currently have. If you'd like to trade, you can reply here but it probably makes more sense in this case to just email me directly via the site. The coins I have are: 2003 USA, 2004 USA, Canada, ckayaks, vacman, GOWT, Oregon, Washington, Conejo, and Waypoint 15. - David Quote

+Nazgul Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 So my question is: Is the trafficking of ill-gotten blackmarket geocoins something I should have to learn to accept from you guys? Thanks for painting blame with a broad brush, and for doing it with a bogus account to boot. I would say that it shouldn't surprise you, regardless of how many finds someone has. I recently had a traveling USA geocoin reported missing by the last people that had it. I have no way of knowing if they decided to keep it or really lost it, but in any case it didn't surprise me. Same goes for the yellow jeep travel bugs and other potentially collectible and/or valuable items. Trade items and regular TBs get swiped regularly, so it's no shock that geocoins do as well. If something is meant to keep moving, I won't keep it, but there are a *lot* of people that play by their own rules and morals. Sorry that it sounds like your coin got swiped. I say you should have someone local to the person in question take a peek at their collection and see if your coin is in it, and if so go public with their name as someone who stole your coin and then lied to you about losing it. Quote
+zygote2k Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 If anyone is interested in selling unregistered geo-coins, feel free to e-mail me with offers. Off topic posters need not reply. Quote
+Nurse Dave Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 So my question is: Is the trafficking of ill-gotten blackmarket geocoins something I should have to learn to accept from you guys? I'm a guy are you talking to me? I paid for most of my coins and swapped for others. Got a big box full of them waiting for the future. It isn't fair, but I have said in the forums before that realistically (human nature being what it is) I wouldn't expect a coin to move very far. TBs are for traveling and coins are better viewed as cool trade items. Quote
+Eric K Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 (edited) So my question is: Is the trafficking of ill-gotten blackmarket geocoins something I should have to learn to accept from you guys? It's a shame that not everyone can play fair. Most people post either "keep this coin moving" or "feel free to keep it". If it doesn't directly say you should keep a coin it should keep moving. The saddest things is Geocoins and Jeep Travel Bugs are like two dollar bills. For some reason people think that $2 bill and geocoins are actually worth more than what they are actually worth. If Geocoins were actually "worth" collecting for besides the 'neato' or 'cool' factor they would be selling all over E-bay for crazy prices. Edited January 30, 2005 by Eric K Quote
