Title: [WTS] AVALON batch 2 Order #1545 - With escrow!
Post by: diego1000 on April 27, 2013, 11:31:00 AM
I would like to sell my preorder for the second batch of Avalon. It's a 65GH+ unit with the PSU included. I'm a respectable trader that did a lot of transactions in the italian community. There is a thread in the italian community where i have 15 pages of positive feedbacks (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=82377.0) from the last year.

-The auction lasts 3 days, until the 29th of this month, 20:00 GMT forum time. Additional offers will extend the time for 5 minutes recursively. The payment will have to be done within 24 hours of the closing of the auction.
-The starting bid is 150 BTC, you can bid in increments of 1BTC.
-I will pay an express shipping service for your home as soon as i receive the unit. I will not even open the package.

actually, that is cheap. Compared to some of the other auctions. Usually minimum is 25 K.

I have some questions.

1) What happens if Avalon does not deliver? Is there a deadline?
2) Will the bitcoins be held in escrow from the auction end until the delivery?
3) What happens if the unit get stuck in customs?

1) Escrow will return BTC to the winner, no deadline.
2) Yes.
3) In the worst case I have to pay a tax (IVA) of 21% and we will lost 1-2 days. Very often the packages pass the customs without it controls the content, Italy is a funny country.

Okay let's start another bidding.

150 BTC

Thanks a lot !!!

(sorry for bad english)

Sounds fair in which part of Italy do you live ? Could the winner eventually pick it up as well ?

Unfortunately I live in the south. we can meet in Rome and I can contribute to the costs of your trip, since I do not have to pay shipping and insurance.

I only ordered 1 units of AVALON (unfortunately).

7 hours left for the auction

Thanks for the response.

If Avalon takes 7 months to deliver what happens? The bitcoins will remain with escrow all that time?

I'm willing to bid, but only if we have a time limit, something like 1 month sounds good to you?

ok, I'm fine with 45 days time limit. If AVALON will not ship my unit before 2013-06-15, escrow will refund the winner

IMO, Avalon's will be profitable for a reasonable amount of time.
