Title: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: UPENtXF on March 16, 2013, 06:20:01 PM Has anyone seen these silver bullets (http://silverbulletbullion.com/) being sold for bitcoin anywhere reputable?
Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: sega01 on March 16, 2013, 06:23:53 PM Okay, that is amazing. Two of the best things in the world. Bullion and bullets in one. I'd pay in fiat, Bitcoin, or just about anything for those.

Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: kibblesnbits on March 16, 2013, 11:44:53 PM I would imagine this company would be all over BTC, and I'd buy at least a box of .45. Let's send the company a few emails.

It would be cooler if they were functional, in case we got to the point where silver was less valuable than functional ammo. Maybe there's a place I can just buy some silver projectiles.

See what I did there? :P Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: johnniewalker on March 17, 2013, 07:27:56 AM damn. I was calm before opening this thread. Reasonably priced too.

Post by: randrace on March 17, 2013, 07:36:45 AM If I lived near their factory in Washington, I would be reselling these in a heartbeat. Ten packs are selling on ebay at a $100 markup!

Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: TECSHARE on March 17, 2013, 08:41:09 AM If some one has the USD to purchase 50 of the .45 rounds I would be willing to pay for it with BTC. Easy way to buy into BTC. I would also retail them here for BTC :)
Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: UPENtXF on March 17, 2013, 04:09:08 PM You can try https://bitspend.net/ . Thanks! That's a great idea! By the time I get it that way though, it will be over 25% more than spot. So, probably not so smart to do. I'll have to wait until btc goes up some more or silver goes down some more, both of which are likely IMHO.I wish someone would make the same thing in copper. I think that would sell just as hot, because more people could afford it. Probably, as Don Harold says, they don't because they can't put the hefty profit margin on copper.

1 short ton looks like it would be about $7000 today, if I'm reading things right. Title: Re: Silver bullets for bitcoin? Post by: UPENtXF on March 17, 2013, 05:24:36 PM Physical copper? Wouldn't you'd have to buy loads of the stuff to stack up much significant value? I agree with the Daytradeshow guy: in the bleak scenario where stacked gold and silver become useful to the average person like me, average people who show up everywhere with gold and silver or known to have stacks will simply be killed for it, or have it all confiscated by the government or local thugs.1 short ton looks like it would be about $7000 today, if I'm reading things right. I think it would be much more useful and safer in that scenario to barter with real ammo and pay for everyday stuff with copper. Even the US Founding Fathers viewed physical copper as useful for small transactions: Coinage Act of 1792 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinage_Act_of_1792) Back then, you could buy stuff with a copper penny, or even half-penny.

That is awesome. You guys are great! I'm honestly feeling like Bitcoin is a better (but maybe more risky) buy than silver right now, but those are pretty tempting. Might send you guys an order some time. I know my friends would love those as Christmas gifts or something. Of course, silver is severely devalued. Not sure why it's trading so low right now, especially in relation to gold. |
