Title: Lamassu Bitcoin ATM for sale
Post by: zircon on August 05, 2015, 09:13:24 AM
hi All,

We brought in the first Bitcoin ATM to Africa. It has been running, however for several reasons we are looking at selling it.

1. Collecting cash from an ATM is a risky procedure in South Africa and I do not feel comfortable doing this anymore.
2. We are doing well simply dealing directly with people and doing electronic transfers. We feel that having an ATM is a bonus, but mostly due to 1. above, we feel more comfortable not dealing with cash on a constant basis in South Africa.

We have had a special 8mm bracket made for the unit which enables it to be mounted on either a flat horizontal surface (counter top) or vertically to a wall. This is in addition to the ATM and I am happy to ship it with this item.

Happy to sort out the shipping, depends on the price that can be agreed upon.

If you are interested please contact me. I know people within Lamassu who can vouch for me if you are concerned about the transaction in any way. I am also the author of the CoinATMRadar iOS app so that should also add to some credibility.

I am looking at:

4300 USD for the machine. Shipping and insurance included. Bracket worth 500USD included.

Please PM me if you wish to take this further.

Thank you

I love the BTMs.  What's the monthly costs Lamassu is charging to operate these using KYC compliance?  I know my little skyhooks don't charge anything, but I have to keep a logbook.

I don't pay a monthly cost btu I don't use KYC at the moment.

Otherwise there is no cost involved, you run your own server and do your own thing.

The thing is cool but it has been a lot of effort, with a full time job, finding a place for it, negotiating with people and shops, they change their mind etc etc. But the biggest reason is probably that I am not comfortable handling large amounts of cash regularly in South Africa. Not a safe environment.
