Quote from: 'triplewitch' pid='18490' dateline='1371462607'The Perth Mint price is $104.54 (AUS) before shipping charges. Downies is charging $115 (US) and $10 shipping. For buyers here in the US, Downies is the best option.-John

$104.54 is the price without GST, for overseas customers.

Sorry. Should have realized that. We get hit by exchange rates, additional 2-3% 'currency conversion' charges, and high shipping. After all that, Downies is a bargain.-John

So anyway... opinions about the new Doctor? I'm gonna miss Matt.. nearly as much as the Ponds.

I got the coin - great conversation piece. Great presentation but sadly not an Australian coin.
As a "Whovian" I like the coin.

Has everyone been playing the Dr Who game on today's Google search page? Pretty cute...

The worldwide simulcast of DR WHO: THE DAY OF THE DOCTOR is set for 23 November at 1950 GMT. This is the 50th Anniversary program. That's 1:50 PM where I am. Unfortunately I won't be able to watch it then. BBC America will rebroadcast it at 6 PM and 11 PM.

The torrent will be up very quickly after its gone to air. Why wait (12 hours in our case)?

BTW, the BBC churned out a 10-part tie-in...

Yes, its a rehash of old stuff, but I guess its cool to have it all in one place as sort of a reference guide. :angel:

Didn't realise it was a game until you mentioned it Fulvio :blush:
