how do I contact someone to find out where my Minelab coin is?

[+BlackRose67]

Over the last several months, myself and several other local geocachers supposedly were accepted to receive one of the Minelab geocoins.

 

None of us have received them yet.

 

I contacted Minelab and they said to contact GC about it.

 

So, who do we contact?

[+cerberus1]

We usually enter these things expecting them to possibly fail at some point.

- If something arrives in the mail - cool.

 

If you feel you can't wait, an email to contact@geocaching.com may work.

It's been my experience, much like cerberus1 has stated, that when you sign up for these promotional travelers, it does not mean that you WILL get one, only that you have stated you want one and you are on their list(s?). I sign up for these and forget about them. If I get one, great. If not, that's OK too.

Yah, I signed up. Didn't get anything. And I never held my breath waiting on it. Chances are, you won't ever get it.

I got one but didnt get the John Grisham travelbug. Its a hit and miss thing.

I sent one of my friends the link to request a coin, and she told me that according to a metal detecting forum, there are no more coins to be had. I think she'd heard about it at the end of last year, so.

Request a Minelab Geocoin

 

We are sorry to say that our supply has run out!

 

We have sent all the Minelab Geocoins out to new homes and hopefully to caches near you. While we can’t send you your own anymore, you can on the lookout for them by tracking their latest movements.

 

Thanks again for your interest.

I got one - it arrived probably 2 months ago or so. It's definitely hit and miss - there are only so many they have, so not everyone will get one.

[+vonjoekasey]

I signed up the first time and they said there were no coins left then a friend sent me a link which stated that they were offering them again and I signed up that was maybe a month ago but I'm not holding my breath...

[+Cadologist]

Bunch of us here locally signed up in February and nobody has gotten one (this was apparently the second round of them being sent out)..... maybe they ran out?!?
