Title: [Auction] Ungraded Brass 1BTC Casascius (LESS THAN 24 HOURS LEFT)
Post by: steelboy on February 08, 2017, 10:09:28 PM
Hi all

I have a single 2013 brass casascius for sale. It's been kept in a capsule and is in good condition. Not graded unfortunately but you should end up with a bargain as a result.

Copied the terms from another auction with a few tweaks in case someone notices. ;)

Auction Terms:

Starting Bid:  1.0 BTC

Bid Increments:  .01 BTC

Auction Ends:  Sunday, 19th February  2000 GMT

Sniping:  Each bid in the final 15 minutes adds 15 minutes until no bid has been made for 15 minutes

Excluded from Bidding:   I may exclude bidders, or require a deposit with escrow, for any bidders at my sole discretion.  If you are a brand new account, or have issues in your trust feedback, please PM prior to bidding

Forum downtime:  If the forum goes offline in the final 4 hours of the auction I may extend the auction at my discretion

Shipping:  At cost in addition to the winning bid.  Ships from UK

Escrow:  No problem, I have a good trust rating but happy to use someone reputable like OGNasty if you want. Buyer pays.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Hi there :)

Great looking coin you have!

You DO have a good trust rating, but the last trusted one was in 2014, so this doesn't give much weight to it right now.

Could you please take some more pictures, with your forum name and today date alongside the coin? This is standard practice when someone who doesn't post here frequently posts something for sale. You also have big gaps in your post history. I am not by any means saying you are not legit, but it would be great if you could do that for us to prove you are legit.

Thanks :)

Yep, fair point. Can't do it right now but will get that sorted maņana.

Don't let that stop you from bidding though. ;)

I think the price rise is making us stingy.

Not graded unfortunately but you should end up with a bargain as a result.

Don't worry about this. People put too much emphasis on what a Casascius coin is graded when in actuality the 80% of the coins have the same quality. The only one winning in getting these coins graded is ANACS who gets $45+ per grading and can just pick a random number in the mid 60s as the grade.

The only negative impact to coin quality is:
  • If the hologram is off center
  • If the first bits in the hologram window are askew
  • If there is obvious wear or scuffing to the metal or hologram

Yours looks like every other 2013 brass version.

Good luck with your sale! I'd say you have quite a bit more fair opportunity to squeeze out of us!

Erm, bit unusual. If you pay for escrow I'm happy to do that.

Nice, this still seems low to me.

Less than 24 hours left, don't miss out on a bargain.

All good then, congrats.

I'll need your preferred postage method and address.

@MinerJones how do you want to organise escrow?
