+Gelugon Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I think my refresh button is worn out. . Im also waiting on art work which keeps getting delayed, so I got it twice as bad. Im sure both will be worth the wait! Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 The saddest part? I keep hitting refresh anyway. You know you're a geocoin addict when... ; ) Hahaha seriously. I haven't watched a sale this closely in a while but I am so in love with these coins!! Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 As repeatedly threatened, I've put one of the sample AEs up for sale on eBay for the benefit of my command's morale & welfare committee. I won't post the link here because, of course, it's a nontrackable sample geocoin. If you're interested and can't find it, feel free to shoot me an email through my profile or check out the Grafikato website (I'm about to post a News item about it, and the link to the sale will be there).

+Telecacher Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Are these really expected to sell out so fast, that if you don't sit and click refresh all week, you will miss it? I ask this because I think it's a beautiful coin, and have always been attracted to ancient Egyptian style artwork, so would like to get one. But not being an obsessed collector, I'm not about to sit and hit refresh all day/week. What are my chances? Awesome design, Jackalgirl! Quote Link to comment
+GoldBugGirl Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Telecacher, that is also my concern. I am willing to watch the site like a hawk on my time, but not on my employer's--& I gotta work, to support my habit, LOL! I'm wondering if those in charge would be willing to put a reasonable limit on the number any single buyer could purchase, say, for 24 hours? Quote Link to comment
+Where'sMyMarbles Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Do we have a new estimated sale date?? Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Do we have a new estimated sale date?? Wouldn't that be a good question? It's looking like the coins will show up Friday afternoon to our shipping center, and the sale will be after that. When, I dunno. Maybe Sat., maybe Sun. But I'll figure it out. Gotta get photos taken, listings built, etc. TMA Quote Link to comment

+Howlingmoon Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 My boyfriend and I wanted a couple of these but, unfortunately, neither of us are working atm, so tis looking like we'll have to miss these. :( Quote Link to comment
+Ashallond Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I just want one of the original color sets (yellow and blue) I really hope that I don't miss it...I may be out caching this weekend... Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Good news, and bad news Which one first? Ok, bad news. Osiris had plating issues and didn't make the pilgrimage Good news? His friends Aten, Set, and Nepthys did. They're resting gently at our shipping facility because well, the proprietor is on vacation, geocaching, of all things So sale time you say? Dunno. Depends on what time the old proprietor gets home and snaps me photos. Tonight, tomorrow, etc. But, I can safely say that 3 of the 4 versions are here. TMA Quote Link to comment
+Gelugon Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Time to start refreshing again!! Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Well if it's tonight or tomorrow I will miss out. Tonight I have to work and tomorrow the guys want to go caching all day. I guess it isn't meant to be... CF30 Quote Link to comment

+Mar-elendili Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Tonight means tomorrow morning early. A good reason to rise with the birds on a sunny Saturday! But the rest of the day sounds busy already, I really hope I will not miss out. This is one coin I would hate to miss. Quote Link to comment

Will keep trying until they go through though!! Edit: Success! Just got the confirmation email. Huzzah, these coins are now mine! Three cheers to JackalGirl and Geocoin Club!

+Whitby Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Wow! Those international shipping charges are insane!!! Although the coin is really great I won't get any. Maybe I can find someone to trade for them. Quote Link to comment
+Where'sMyMarbles Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 YAY!!!!!!!!!! SOOOO happy I was able to order some!!! Pretty late/early here......awesome Thank you so much for these beauties!! I can NOT wait to see them in my hand!! Quote Link to comment
+rokito87 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 When my alarm went off at 3:15 this morning, I was not looking forward to getting out of bed (facing a 9 or so hour drive to NC). But my phone was flashing email alerts, so I started to scroll through them, and there was the message I've been waiting for! Made getting up bright and early seem all the more worth while. This coin looks so awesome, I can't wait to see it in person! Quote Link to comment
+Eastshire Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I got a set of Set. Wait does that make sense? Anyways, this is the first geocoin I've bought and I can't wait for them to get here! Quote Link to comment

+anne.and.eli Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I got the first of my set tonight, and I can just say the coin is AMAZING!!! It's a lot thicker than I was expecting (what, read the dimensions? Why would I do that?) and the wash on the back (I think that's what it is?) is such a cool effect. Great job, jackal!!

+goosefraba1 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Hey jackal... Are the ae's going to be trade only... Or are they also going to be on the store? Thanks, goose Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 Howdy! Pete just gave me some pretty good gouge, of interest to those of you who collect limited coins (and those of you who just want to buy coins): GCS doesn't limit their popular coins, so they'll be making more Atens to put in the store. So: "sold out" is not necessarily "gone forever!" CF30 -- here you go: This is the non-trackable sample coin I mentioned here as selling on eBay to support my command's "Social Committee" (basically, our event fund). Goosefraba1 - the AEs are actually going to be sold on eBay as a fundraiser for my church. I'll be posting more here about it once I have them and am ready to start the sales. Quote Link to comment
+Twitch Hugs Trees Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Awesome! I'm looking forward to collecting them all. Speaking of, any word on Osiris? Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 GCS gets their orders in on Fridays, so with any luck, we should get word from Pete very late tonight/tomorrow morning* that they're in and ready to go. I'll shoot out a newsletter and post here, of course. *Your time may vary. I'm in Japan, so "Friday" for me is actually "Thursday Night" for most people in the States Quote Link to comment
