+Ruud4d Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 My coin has arrived. With the desired number! Thank you!!! Quote
+ZAteam Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 On a personal note: Up for sale on eBay, all three Delft Blue coins. All proceeds to go towards paying some medical bills of a friend with cancer. This auction is for three coins: - one "windmolen" - one "klomp" - and one "trapgevel" These coins are from my own personal collection. Winning bidder may contact me for an additional bonus. First of all I would like to thank all the people bidding on the coins. It means a lot to me and will certainly help cover some costs. I´ve been getting questions about the ´bonus´... all I can say at the moment is that the answer is hidden in the item description... I'm really grateful for the generous bids on the coins! I'm not going to go into details of the friend in question as this is a private matter(details will be provided to the buyer on request). All I can say is that she is a wondeful person and will absolutely appreciate this donation. THANK YOU Quote
+ECplus3 Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 My wife's geocoin collection is just waiting for one more addition to be complete. Quote
+avroair Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Got mine thanks! Very nice... I hope the 4th is a tulip! Quote
+Ruud4d Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Got mine thanks! Very nice... I hope the 4th is a tulip! It can't be anything else, can it? Or maybe one thing: a joint Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) Got mine thanks! Very nice... I hope the 4th is a tulip! It can't be anything else, can it? Or maybe one thing: a joint Ha ha ha, but isn't that primarily centered around a certain city rather than The Netherlands as a whole? I think a bicycle is also an option. Hmm, maybe it should be a 5-coin set. Edited February 20, 2010 by AtlantaGal Quote
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 if avroair got his, mine should be here on monday, can't wait Quote
+Vanelle Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Still hopeful that mine will arrive soon! Quote
+avroair Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Got mine thanks! Very nice... I hope the 4th is a tulip! It can't be anything else, can it? Or maybe one thing: a joint Ya freaky deaky dutch! Quote
+longtomsilver Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Mine is in too. Great design and I love it. Tulip, Dam, or s.e.; the 4th design is def. a must to have for me. Quote
+ECplus3 Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Can those who can prove ownership of the first three go to the front of the line for the fourth one!? Quote
+Ruud4d Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Can those who can prove ownership of the first three go to the front of the line for the fourth one!? I second that! Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Anyone else in the US get their coin yet? Quote
+scificollector Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Anyone else in the US get their coin yet? Still waiting down here in Florida. Quote
+dhenninger Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 still waiting here too. every day looking at a sad empty mailbox (except bills, of course) Quote
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 avroair got his, but I'm still waiting for mine and I only live an hour or two from him. Hoping for tomorrow Quote
+The Klever Boys Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Guys, I did have similar concerns about my coin not arriving here in England. However, it did arrive safely a few days ago, but given that pretty much all of the coins were dispatched by Feb 9th, can only assume that there's perhaps some unusual delay in the post from Holland, as (from experience) post to England from Europe tends to arrive in roughly 4 days. (However, during this time, I did still receive other coins from both Germany and Switzerland well within a week). I wouldn't worry too much - I suspect they will arrive within the next few days, given my experience. Well worth waiting for though! Russ Quote
+gardengorilla Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Guess I'd better reply I got mine last week...my first Delft Blauuw and what a dandy! A work of art for sure, I went and ordered a stand from landsharkz just so I could show it off Quote
+ZAteam Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Hi there all, we are keeping an eye on this. From experience from the previous two sales we know that it can sometimes take fairly long for the packages to arrive in the states. Canada was also a problem. So far we've no lost a singe package(quickly looking around for some wood to knock on ) Please post if you receive your package, so other buyers know that packages are still arriving. Quote
+Ruud4d Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Not exactly the same but I had to wait for a coin from Canada for over 3 weeks. Got me worried too. Quote
+Vanelle Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I'm still waiting for mine as well - It is reassuring to know that others are still on their way. When I saw all the posts that showed folks receiving them, I was concerned that mine was lost. Quote
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Got mine yesterday or today, just checked the PO BOX and it was there. So yeah, three guys from washington have their coins. I love this thing, was expecting it to be bigger for some reason, though I really like how it feels in my hand. Out of curiosity, has a single one of these coins been released into the wild? I would assume the answer is no, but hey, maybe right.... Quote
+ZAteam Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Got mine yesterday or today, just checked the PO BOX and it was there. So yeah, three guys from washington have their coins. Glad to see the coins are still arriving safely I love this thing, was expecting it to be bigger for some reason, though I really like how it feels in my hand. Thanks, glad you like it. Out of curiosity, has a single one of these coins been released into the wild? I would assume the answer is no, but hey, maybe right.... Well I know of at least one...: Hout skoen ("Hout skoen" is South African for "klomp" which is Dutch for "wooden shoe") Quote

If you have a problem with the mail, and no one else can help and if you can find em, maybe you can hire Z A Team! Quote
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Wow, that sure has put on some miles. Very surprised it's lasted this long with how popular the coins seem to be. Nice to see there is some love out there Quote

Well, anyway, I'm glad to see that it's doin ok. Quote
+wilg Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 There is another one moving around since Feb. 2007: Delfts Blauw Geocoin Quote
+dhenninger Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 With only one sold per cacher, I doubt that many of the V3s will be circulated. I totally understand why the decision was made, but it hinders the possibility of any traveling. Quote
+rsfish1 Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Just as an FYI. I received mine approximately 2 weeks ago in Indianapolis. But what I am seeing and from some other forums, overseas shipments both in to and out of the US are very sporadic this month and sometimes taking a very long time. I had a package that usually takes 7 days to get to me take 22 days. Another package I shipped out took 24 days to be delivered. And I have another sitting at 21 days and counting. All are international packages. I had sent 3 packages to Germany at the same time and had 2 delivered in 5 days and another almost 2 weeks later. I do not know if the weather really messed up shipments and got things spread out and delayed. But for those waiting on their coins, I, and others, have seen some really long delays. Quote
+sweetlife Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 My wife's geocoin collection is just waiting for one more addition to be complete. THAT IS A SWEET COLLECTION. We missed getting this geocoin. We have the Klomp but not the Windmolen don't have the second one either so guess it is not meant to be, Maybe someday, Hehe, wishful think we know. Thanks for sharing. Quote
