Any pics of the nickel/silver?

Timoe · « **Reply #122 on:** November 10, 2005, 12:36:12 pm »

I got mine last night in Southern California. Thank you Mr & Mrs Santoro!

Flinkly · « **Reply #123 on:** November 10, 2005, 01:58:19 pm »

i got mine, but no comparison checks, mostly not with canadian money. i read over this thread last night pretty late, and then turned off my comp. after a bit, it hit me that i hadn't checked my mail yet yesterday, so i ran out to the mailbox in 32 degree weather to check my mail in shorts and moccasins at 10:30 at night. man i was so excited. they're sweet.

Santoro · « **Reply #124 on:** November 11, 2005, 11:51:48 am »

Nickel.

Santoro · « **Reply #125 on:** November 11, 2005, 04:11:45 pm »

I can hardly believe it but we are almost out of Nickel. I know I said that these would be available for months, it certainly seems I was wrong.

Santoro · « **Reply #126 on:** November 12, 2005, 12:41:21 pm »

I had marked the site as sold out until I figured out how many are available.

KDOG · « **Reply #127 on:** November 12, 2005, 09:41:53 pm »

Hey Santoro did you send mine out? I am locked out of my yahoo account.

Kremmit · « **Reply #128 on:** November 12, 2005, 09:44:44 pm »

200 brass ordered.

I wonder if you can justify another run?

I have some left, but I took them off the website so I didn't get too many orders. PM me if you want Nickel tokens. As soon as I know how many I have left I will allocate them in order of recieved PMs. I will work out the paypal details with the winners via PM.

Wow! I can hardly believe too! Remember the Mame Nickels were in stock for months after the inital orders.

Random thought I wonder if this proves the market hasn't yet been flooded with mame related tokens??

No - I got your order and it has been shipped. I just can't offer the 5 token samplers like I had expected.

Timoe · « **Reply #132 on:** November 13, 2005, 09:40:58 am »

Time for 2006 token art submissions. The community is growing?

markrvp · « **Reply #136 on:** November 14, 2005, 12:37:14 pm »

Shiny goodness received today (first order)! Looks great.

Now if I could just find somebody with some MAME tokens they would be willing to sell . . .

saint · « **Reply #137 on:** November 14, 2005, 01:18:21 pm »

I have some 2004 BYOAC and MAME tokens I could give a few away if we came up with some kind of contest . . . Only if Santoro is sold out of all stock though, don't want to impact his sales at all.

nullb0y · « **Reply #138 on:** November 14, 2005, 01:52:12 pm »

aH@HHH!!!! no samplers!!!! nooooooooo!!! somone send me a nickel and a brass token lmao!

jfunk · « **Reply #139 on:** November 14, 2005, 02:23:42 pm »

GOT MINE TODAY!! WHOOHOO!

Now, to finish that coin door installation..

Thanx, Santoro!

*jfunk waits 'patiently' for his new BYOAC hat, as well...*

After opening my token package I started thinking about all the time it must take to count these out, bag them, wrap them in protective newspaper, seal the pack and then put them in mailers and safety tape the envelopes.

Dave I know you're not making much (if anything) on these tokens, so I just wanted to publicly say:

Thank you very much for doing this for the BYOAC community

I really appreciate your efforts in putting together the design contest, dealing with the mint, putting together an E-commerce site and fulfilling these orders. You have my deepest appreciation.

Here here! THANK YOU MR. AND MRS. SANTORO! They are so shiny it bring a tear to my wife's eye.

and once again thanks Pixel for the awesome artwork.

MustardTent · « **Reply #143 on:** November 14, 2005, 06:16:06 pm »

Got my 100/100 mix. They are absolutely beautiful.
What an amazing way to give back to this community.

Thanks much to the Santoros!

specfire · « **Reply #144 on:** November 14, 2005, 09:09:00 pm »

I am so pissed at myself. I dragged my heels on this so much that I think I might have missed the boat. I just ordered 200 nickel but I have no idea if the stock is even available. Besides I actually wanted Brass....Crap.

Santoro · « **Reply #145 on:** November 14, 2005, 10:22:41 pm »

you are in.

aumameman · « **Reply #146 on:** November 15, 2005, 06:16:05 am »

My tokens are waiting at the post office for me to pickup. I Didnt get there before closing probably wont till saturday! AHH my tokens are so close but far at the same time!

Santoro · « **Reply #147 on:** November 15, 2005, 07:54:55 am »

SOLD OUT.

A'ight, let's get that new artwork thread started!!!

exibar · « **Reply #149 on:** November 15, 2005, 11:34:04 am »

darn :-( I was waiting for the 50/50 mix like in the past.... looks like I missed the boat :-(

If you decide to do a second run, please let me know. Put me down for 100 tokens (50/50 mix or 100 of the type you run)

thanks!
Mike B

Silverwind · « **Reply #150 on:** November 15, 2005, 02:57:21 pm »

My tokens came in the mail yesterday.. look great.. got the 100/100 mix. Thanks Santoro!

Now I just need to adjust my coin mechs because right now they are quarters only..

Mark70 · « **Reply #151 on:** November 15, 2005, 08:45:25 pm »

Anyone in Canada get theirs yet? Santoro said mine shipped Saturday am. It's been two business days since and no word.

It's probably just my inner impatient child acting up again.

Santoro · « **Reply #152 on:** November 15, 2005, 10:29:03 pm »

I'll bet they come tomorrow.

RetroACTIVE · « **Reply #153 on:** November 16, 2005, 08:27:09 am »

Your tokens are flippin' awesome! I got mine on Monday... I'm tweaking my cheapo 25c coin mech to accept them.

One problem... I SHOULD HAVE PREORDERED MORE! I did not really think it through... 200 tokens, not enough. I want a whole fish bowl (less the fish and water of course) full of these things!

Looking forward to next year!

thanks again

Bumblebounces · « **Reply #154 on:** November 16, 2005, 04:59:21 pm »

Got mine today. It's Christmas a little early this year!! Dentils are the bomb...

I second the
BIG THANKS to Dave and family
for enabling our communal disfunction over this hobby...

Also kudos to Pixelhugger for the great artwork, once again.

Cheers,
Bumble

Now, where's my hat, Pixel?!

DarkKobold · « **Reply #155 on:** November 16, 2005, 10:37:29 pm »

Got mine today. They were packed amazingly well. What can I say, Santoro is a great packer....

nullb0y · « **Reply #156 on:** November 17, 2005, 01:32:56 pm »

gah completly sold out.... anyone willing to send me one of each? ill pay you lol
i miss the byoac ones every time
i only have a set of 5 b 5 s mame tokens lol

aumameman · « **Reply #157 on:** November 30, 2005, 04:51:10 am »

There was plently of time to preorder these tokens in 100 or 200 lots. Those who got "samplers" of the original run of MAME tokens should feel lucky as the popularity of these things have become so increasingly popular that I doubt that any future token runs will ever get to the stage for samplers.
