The nice part, that they - Canadian Coin and Currency - have now a free shipping (in Canada, I believe), so it worth to try.

If those orders will be fulfilled - there will be no reason for many people to say "Was unavailable for issue price"

Not many people have ability to place an order at 01:30 AM, but anyway....

I placed my order way before 1:30 am and people on RFD knew about Cdn Coin & Currency before anyone here was notified. I wouldn't place too much faith in getting one from this dealer but it never hurts to try.

Red Flag Deals seems to be all the talk these days on here. Well I got my 2 at issue. Sold one which I am not ashamed to say so I am happy. Sorta hoping that gatewest is a little more affordable then what they are going on E-bay for the sake of the people who were unable to get one.

It was marked as Out of Stock right from the get go and "in stock soon" and as a waiting list sale. So everyone still has a chance to get one. I was on my way over here to post it as well but Silveroid already had. We will all see what happens... its worth a try at issue price :)
If another option comes up I would jump on it as well

@coin_games - They actually came in a limo. 0_o Little odd.

Limo is cheaper than 2 taxi's, there must have been 6+ people that showed up on behalf of GW.

if someone knew, why not to post?
RFD will receive appreciation that it deserves.
Not easy to monitor both forums, but pieces of info that possible to get here and there are very valuable.

It's best to check both RFD and CCF for information about new releases. RFD members are probably texting their friends and family about the butterfly coin rather than posting any new information here.

GW is at it again.

Appeared on their website at issue, phone ordered only. Called and got a 'we are closed' voice mail. Now they have raised the price and are still not answering the phone.

Done with them.

edit: while typing this, they raised the price AGAIN.

Ya.. 5-10 minutes it went up $20. They probably only sold 1-2 before jacking up the price. I was done with them on the penny roll.

they just raise it again - only 10 bucks this time. I'd say they sold none since their vm said they were not open.

They did the same with the glass bee and the penny roll.

edit to add...and they raised it another 10 bucks. Sa-lee-zee
