Sudonim has a PayPal account that he uses specifically for GeocachingMaine.org coins. :DQuote:

I'm done with the school bus contract now and (I know, I've said this before...) should have the final numbers very soon. Thanks all for your patience. (Sure would be nice to have coins to show people at GeoWoodstock).
Woooo HOOOO!!!!!
Coins are coming!!!!
woohoo! we can't wait :)

It's a web site .You send a money request to the email of the person, add the amount and check off " for Goods" . you shouldn't even have to pay taxes. We've put 2 coins out since you started the "2008" coin. There are others who have made more than that in the same time. I think your telling stories. LOL!!!!!!!!
If your REALLY having a hard time getting the coin done, CHANGE VENDERS !!!!!!!
JMHO

Paypal does have a problem with Pay Now - get it later - if the goods aren't delivered to the expectation of the buyer. Tsunrisebey has a story she has posted numerous places. I have also had my account frozen (for a media mail delivery which didn't arrive per the buyers expected time). It only takes one complaint and they have you are tied up, jumping through hoops for days (and in Tsun's case I think months), trying to get your money free. Having dealt with them - they do have real people - it is more than just a website.Quote:

Maine people who purchase from me on-line through Ebay pay Maine State sales tax. I believe this is one small piece of the coins which Sudonim has taken care of every year (as he is a retailer). And for that we are fortunate and thank you!
I just noticed this thread on GC.com.
But didn't we pre-buy the prefix ME - we couldn't have used all those codes up. Did we pre-buy and purchase or was it just a commitment for 1000 codes? And therein lies another piece of the coin business. Who has the unused codes, if we have actually paid for and received them? Coins and Pins our usual vendor?Quote:

Does this affect our current coin project?
After I read Holora's post, and re-read the change notice, I don't think it does. As Hollora said, Maine already has the ME prefix.
This thread got a little ugly a few weeks ago and I'm not going to re-create or comment but......is there a coin coming, and if so, how do we order it/them?:confused:
:) Yup - this was covered, by the coin coordinator, last year to ensure we had the prefix. In the future, after all our current codes are used - this may help us.
But, TAT - thanks for pointing it out as it may make a difference to some folks who may be thinking about doing a coin.
