Wow... A note??? They just left mine on the porch... Yeah - They've left more expensive stuff on the porch. I was quite surprised. And not too happy Quote
+TotemLake Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Doesn't everyone older than 40??? Ummm, no... ;-) It depends on how badly the trail abused me the day before. Quote
+globalgirl Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 WaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAA!!! I was verily the NINTH to place an order and haven't whined a peep til now... But I simply CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER. Could you pretty please check that my 5 precious have been sent to my hovel - right here in Seattle? Quote
+Suziq Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Thanks for the fast service the coins look great. Quote
+Night_Hawk Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 I came home and found my coins waiting on the porch. they look much better in real life then they did in the picture. Thanks for all your hard work Quote
+Prying Pandora Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 WaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAA!!! Ditto that! Quote

+Grandpa Rocks & Grouchy Gramma Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Got ours last night. Thanks Lucy and Ricky for the gargantuan effort to get these sorted and out in the mail so quickly. They are great. Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 If I don't get my coins today... I'm going to set the building on fire. And they better not take my stapler either. I was told I could listen to the radio at a reasonable level. Quote
+Square Bear Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 and I didn't get any Birthday cake either. Quote
+globalgirl Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 And they better not take my stapler either. I was told I could listen to the radio at a reasonable level. LOL BM - thanks for lightening up these dark days whilst fidgeting for the precious. Quote
+Prying Pandora Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Ooh, uh, yeah. I’m going to have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. Yeah. Quote
+NomadRaven Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Woo-hoo! My coins are here! (Errr... well, mine and RomulusNR's) they're so pretty and shiny! Now we just have to fight over which one of us gets #74! Thanks LucyandRickie! Amazing how fast UPS is from Redmond to Federal Way... the package was "origin scanned" at 8:37 last night and I got it in under 14 hours! Quote
+Allanon Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Amazing how fast UPS is from Redmond to Federal Way... the package was "origin scanned" at 8:37 last night and I got it in under 14 hours! Yep, sounds about right for 'rush hour'... Quote
+Wander Lost Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) And they better not take my stapler either. Would that be this: stapler?? p.s. I love that movie! I've lived that movie Edited to stay sort of on topic. We got coin #12 and you'll have to pry that one out of my cold dead hands. Edited November 18, 2004 by Wander Lost Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) Uh.... what movie? It does kind of look like Milton's waiting for his coins, too. Edited November 18, 2004 by Bull Moose Quote
nolenator Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Yeah right... Trivia: The red Swingline stapler that Milton was so afraid of having taken away was never actually manufactured by the Swingline company; it was instead painted red by a crew member in the props department. However, following the movie's success on video as a cult film, the demand for red Swingline staplers (apparently as a symbol of quiet rebellion among cubicle-bound employees) was so great that the company began to sell the red Swingline stapler on its website. I know it is off-topic, yet very funny. Peace, Nolenator Quote
+Nurse Dave Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) I got #4!!! Edited November 18, 2004 by Nurse Dave Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Darn. Another day's UPS delivery has came and no coins again. I'm getting killed in the great delivery day lotto. Why didn't I just drive to Tacoma Saturday night. Argh, I'm mad at myself.... Quote
+Mauison Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Just got my coins delivered about ten minutes ago. They look great. I got #99! Sweet! The rest will become FTF prizes around here. Thanks again to everyone involved! Quote
+joefrog Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Darn. Another day's UPS delivery has came and no coins again. I'm getting killed in the great delivery day lotto. Why didn't I just drive to Tacoma Saturday night. Argh, I'm mad at myself.... You're killing me, Moose! Quote
+Pepper Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 No coins for me today. Boo hoo, Oh well, I have a reason to get out of bed tomorrow. Bull Moose you mood is a little depressing, but let me tell ya it's good for a laugh! Keeping up with you today has kept me on the floor laughing. Your precoius coins will arrive soon, i'm sure of it. Pepper Quote
+Defender1 Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 I'm with you Bull Moose, I will gladly be your partner in depression until my coins get here. Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Bull Moose you mood is a little depressing, but let me tell ya it's good for a laugh!Keeping up with you today has kept me on the floor laughing. Your precoius coins will arrive soon, i'm sure of it. Yeah. An extra day or two shouldn't make any difference. (But it does!!!!! ;) ) I just hope they're here before the weekend. And so does Joe Frog. One of those coins has a long trip to the opposite corner of the country after it gets in my hands, and it could use the weekend to travel. Quote
+runhills Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Bull Moose, Rumor is that your UPS Man is busy searching for Ferry Cache I - Seattle to Bremerton and isn't having any luck Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Bull Moose, Rumor is that your UPS Man is busy searching for Ferry Cache I - Seattle to Bremerton and isn't having any luck Yeah. He may be out awhile then. I have the new container sitting at home, I need to bring it down there and get some new coords.... Quote
nolenator Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Easy now Run, I know it is easy to taunt a guy since we have our coins. Easy now BM, put down that red stapler. Peace, Nolenator Quote
+runhills Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 But..........I don't have my coins either. I might be on somebodies Black List Quote
+Kealia Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Checkin' in from the Santa Cruz area in CA - got mine today. Woo hoo! Was lucky enough to score #10 - dare I say......."it's Precious!" We lovez them and nobody will ever take the Precious from us again!! Great big thanks - from both of us . Quote
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 The UPS guy brought me my coins today. Or should I say, almost all of my coins today. The list says I should have gotten #50 and #215-237. Guess which one never made it into the package? I sure hope #50 is still sitting in L&R's house somewhere. Quote
+Prying Pandora Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Yippee!! Ours just came tonight! UPS must be working late. Our low number is 33 and the rest are in the 860-870 range. Quote
+Morock & Miss C Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Got ours today. Very attractive coin, much better looking in person than the two dimensional photo that we purchased from. Kudo's to the crew that made this happen. Really like the, epoxy? coating covering the 3-D mountain design. One question, are these trackable on GC from cache to cache? And...One more, after activating on WGC, then what? To log the coin, the page asks me where it was found. (Inside my screen door doesn't cut it.) Quote
+Defender1 Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Hey Moose, Good news people in California are getting theirs. Well I guess you and I doomed till at least tomarrow. I hope tomarrow's trip to the mail box wont be as depressing as today Quote
+Navdog Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I've felt like an expectant father the last few weeks wondering how the coins would turn out. I finally got my hands on an actual coin yesterday. They really look nice. The depth of field on the front of the coin is great! The epoxy cover definitely enhances the 3-D effect. Quote
+willcall Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Don't normally get too vocal in these things, but these are NIIIIICE coins. Congratulations on the design - unparalleled. #11 goes in the collection. BTW, anyone interested in trading something for a uniquely numbered Canadian? Like #0666. Forgot where I got it, but my wife won't let me keep it. I'm sure it's not a problem, but it occasionally takes on a strange glow..... If no one's interested, I may need to donate it to the trove of some devil-worshipping rock band or another. WillCall Quote
+Square Bear Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 BM have the same fate as you, maybe tommorow will bring better luck. Quote
+Bull Moose Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 BM have the same fate as you, maybe tommorow will bring better luck. Misery loves company. Quote
+KC0GRN Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Alas, UPS has not graced my doorstep today with a package. Hope I get an interesting low number (if I get a low number one, there's only... 100 of those). Quote
+the4Grays Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 No coins for us today yet either , but I understand how that can work knowing that Bremerton is so much further away than California. Maybe tomorrow they can make it across the sound. Not whining just very inpatient. Quote
+globalgirl Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 ...but I understand how that can work knowing that Bremerton is so much further away than California. Yeah, and Seattle even further than both... If my precious don't show up manana, there's surely gonna be some serious WWWwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!! here, let me tell ya. Quote
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 If somebody's package shows up with coin #50 you'll recieve tons of good karma if you forward it to it's intended owner - Me! Let me know if it inadvertantly got packed with your order - my order was one coin short No hard feelings to L&R - They had 1500 coins to deal with - so far the error rate is .05% or so. Quote
