You can go to the trackable page and mark it missing. You can also reuse the code. Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 April isn't a year, but I understand your frustration. No finds/hides. Thought it was a sock account as they say they found it with family, but nothing logged at the cache that day either. Figure it's lost and move on. Reuse the code for a t-shirt or similar and bring it to events, or try your luck traveling again with something else. Quote Link to comment
+3beauties1beast Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 sorry..i was looking at our date, however you are right it is still frusturating. we love this game and understand life happens, but let us know or send it to us so we can re-release it. Our daughters are disapointed. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment
+Team Dredd Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 We have quite a few trackables out. We enjoy the TB part of the geocaching game about as much as finding caches and really enjoy watching them move around. We try to keep up with them but unfortunately they do disappear regularly. When we purchase a new TB, whether a coin, cute trackable or just a tag I take high resolution scans of it and save them. If the TB is taken by a new cacher (sometimes they stop caching as quick as they started) we will send a nice email inquiring about it. If no reply we mark it as missing, and in a year or so we put out a nicely laminated PROXY and send it on it's way. If it just goes missing from a cache we will send some nice inquiring messages after a couple of months. If we don't get any informative responses we mark it as missing so it doesn't continue to show up in the cache. If it doesn't turn up, time to turn up is always depending on the circumstances of its disappearance, then we will put out the nice PROXY. Unfortunately we have several marked as missing right now and are just waiting to see if they ever turn up. If they don't it will be PROXY time. You have to be careful with proxy TB's though. If you put one out to soon and the original starts to move again it can be confusing. I have heard Ground Speak has locked some TB's that has happened too. Haven't thought about using the code for a T-shirt to be used at events and stuff but that is a really cool idea too. Quote Link to comment
