Out of curiosity and since there are a few of us Canadians around have you looked into a distributor north of the of the 49th? 22 bucks to ship anything short of a tire isn't something I'll bite on personally.

LOL! I was going to ask if you had tried any ancients. Good timing on the release, I just ordered!
Have you tried it on any steel cents? Sorry if that question has been answered before, this thread is getting way too long for me to go back and re-read.

I'm sorry shipping is so expensive for you. For now, Wizard is the only seller/distributor but I may look into Canada down the road.

I haven't personally tried in on any 1943's. However, I think desertgem did test one. You can skim throught the thread quickly by just looking at the pictures.

Hey, you guys moved too fast. LOL Thanks for your order!
Please do not share this code with anyone outside of CC. The code is for CC members only.
xshift - Try putting a few drops on the surface of those coins with heavy verdigris. Let it sit for about 2-5 minutes, then work the spots with a toothpick or thorn (with the drops still on the surface). If necessary, repeat the process. Sometimes I'v found it takes 2-3 tries. I've had really good success using that technique.

xshift, I ordered, came back here, THEN found out about the code. I sent the wizard an e-mail saying "oops" and mentioned CCF. They responded very quickly and issued me a refund. On top of that, I got my shipment yesterday. Fast shipping!
Can't wait to start experimenting with it this weekend. I'm gonna practice first before I pull out the real conservation targets. I'll take some before/after pics.

Not sure if my roses have the greatest thorns for this but I'll check 'em out.

I talked with Wizard about this, it has to do with their ordering system. The charge is entered as a maximum shipping price. When they ship, the actual shipping price is charged and the difference is given back as a credit. They ship up to 6 bottles in a small flat rate box for $14. They told me this: Quote: If someone is ordering 6 or fewer bottles and nothing else, they can enter the code FREINR to adjust the shipping to $14. That is not necessary though as we'll adjust and refund if they don't.

How long will the discount code be valid for or is this an ongoing discount for those of us here on CCF?

Hi kena! The code will be good until the initial stock (30 units) is depleted. I'm not exactly sure, but I suspect there's only about 10 or so left.
Thanks for your interest!
