+lindsychris Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Those who have been around this forum for a while may remember us as we were very active in coin collecting a few years ago. Times have changed and we haven't been collecting for the past two years. These coins have been sitting in a cabinet waiting to be traded or sold, and the time has come for them to go. Since there are over 300 coins we're looking to get rid of, we're selling them in grab bag lots. The details Each bag costs $50 Shipping to the US is $5.00 priority (if more than one bag is purchased, shipping will remail $5.00), international--contact us for actual shipping Each bag contains at least 10 unactivated, trackable coins. No bags contain duplicate coins Each bag contains at least 8 regular sized coins. All coins are from December 2008 or earlier Each bag also contains extra surprises The coins include personals, event coins, limited editions, rare HTFs, and coins from as early as 2005. Coins included in the random bags: 2006 Phone-a-Friend, Highly Addictive, Crake Suncatcher, GPS Maze-Minnetrista, Whitebear, Original Stash, Rainforest Jewel, 2005 UK, Christmas Compass Rose, , 2007 Compass Rose, Earth Turtles, iCache, cellphone/flip phone, Yimes, GW Volunteer, GCF Volunteer All bags have been packaged and sealed and will be randomly mailed. 28 bags are available and will be distributed to the first 28 people who email us and pay. Please contact us through our profile. Paypal preferred--please include your paypal email! Please contact us through our profile and not through private messages. We only have a few bags left and I check our email more frequently than PMs. Don't forget to include your paypal email address! The bags are going to the first people who email AND pay! The bags: Inside of one bag Inside of another bag: The reason why we're not collecting anymore! Edited August 25, 2010 by lindsychris Quote Link to comment

+lindsychris Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 Everyone in the US should have received a paypal money request. Still working on the international shipping. Quote Link to comment
+lindsychris Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 How much will shipping be to germany? The packages are about 1 lb each with packaging, so shipping to Germany is $11.00, for a total of $61. Quote Link to comment
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) The reason why we're not collecting anymore! Congratulations, that's the happiest reason I've seen to stop collecting. Although SOMEone looks a little less than happy about selling all your coins. Are you keeping any? Edited August 25, 2010 by WRITE SHOP ROBERT Quote Link to comment
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Right now the plan is to wait until Friday and ship as many of these as possible at once. That might be one BIG trip to the post office! You should do very well with the smallest flat rate box from priority mail, they're about 4.95 and will fit up to about 30 coins. Oh Yeah, and the boxes are free. Just wrap the coins in some newspaper. Edited August 25, 2010 by WRITE SHOP ROBERT Quote Link to comment

Although SOMEone looks a little less than happy about selling all your coins. Are you keeping any? Normally she is a happy girl but I think she was sad to see those pretty packages go. We have 3 binders of activated and special non-trackables that we are keeping....about 250 trackables, so there are still plenty ofcoins. We also still have some of our personals left.

+lindsychris Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 UPDATE: As of this post there is only ONE grab bag available. The first email with a paypal address gets it. Everyone should have received an invoice. If you haven't, please let me know. Please pay as soon as possible so we can get these all shipped out! Thanks so much everyone. We'll have a few more listings in the next few days, some rarer individuals and a bunch of activated trackables that never made their way into our binders. Quote Link to comment

Thank you for sharing with us at such a bargain, and for stuffing extras in the bag. If anyone want's to correct me on the names of these, please share. First of all, you are quite welcome. All of the bags had the "extras" which included ducks, chicks, princes, etc. These started with GW5 chicks up until the MWGB parrots from 2008. Just a little something extra. The crown/fishbowl was the "guys" project from the MWGB. Most, if not all also contained one of our GEOsmirks. The versions that were included are our LEs and XLEs. The pink and purple were mine, the green and blue were Chris's. There were 35 of each made in black nickel and 15 of each made in nickel. Quote Link to comment
