Will there be a picture of the sample posted with the pre-order?? I would love to see the finished product, the chosen design was very nice!

We are holding the pre-sale before a sample has been minted.

Shipping/Handling:
1-2 coins: $2.50
3-4 coins: $3.50
5-6 coins: $4.50
6-12 coins: $5.50
12+ coins: $10
.

Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box $4.95 8-5/8" x 5-3/8" x 1-5/8"
The boxes are free and they hold quite a few coins, far more than 12.
Delivery Confirmation is max 0.80

Why the high price for 12+?

Based on the last WGA geocoin sale (we expect the coin weight to be very similar to the cow coin) and actual shipping costs, the reason for the big price jump at 12+ coins is that is where we switched to using a flat rate box where we could send up to 100 coins for the same price (weight doesn't matter). There were only approx. 3 orders of 12+ coins during the last WGA coin sale.

If you have additional ideas on how to manage the high quantity order shipping that keeps shipping costs down, please let me know via PM asap. We are setting up the store and needs these details ironed out asap.

Some may notice the WGA store link is active again. We are still working on the final details of the store setup so orders are not being taken just yet on the Geocoin presale and pathtags sale.

Watch for a sale launch announcement soon!!

It wants to charge $5 shipping for 1 coin. Is that correct?

Is the minter (is that really a word?) shipping directly to the buyer or is a WGA member receiving then distributing the coins?

Thanks Smile

Yes, there is a increased shipping cost for only buying one Very Happy

Just kidding. I purchased 4 and the s/h was $3.50 I am sure that this can be checked out and fixed.

Jeremy???

To answer your question on shipping, a WGA member (or members) will be shipping the coins to the buyer.

Did you only put in a single coin? No other items in your cart?

I just added 1 coin to my cart and clicked checkout and shipping says $2.50.

I had 1 coin and 1 pathtag and it was $5 shipping. Added another pathtag and it stayed at $5. Didn't try it with just a coin though.

This is correct. We charge separate shipping for the pathtags and the coins because they are shipping at separate times.
