Title: 1g Gold bars (UK only)

Going to run this as a mini group buy with a min order of 10 bars in total as a cheap and cheerful way to get in to gold bullion.

1g gold bars available for 0.07 bitcoin each + 0.005 p&p (any quantity)

My reputation thread -

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=329175.0

If you order just post or pm me your transaction I.D and delivery details.

Payment address -

1MMC3nVwBkDt96LHf8gT9xFc5uR6DfUe77

Should we not hit the minimum 10 bars funds will be returned - Closing date 17/1/14

When the order has been placed a copy of the receipt can be provided if required from the bullion dealer to prove authenticity.

Any questions welcome

just doing some maths...

1 gram bars of gold for sale here http://www.bullionbypost.co.uk/gold-bars/1-gram-gold-bar/1-gram-gold-bar-best-value/

1 gram = £38

btc / GBP from mtgox 1 btc = £550

0.07 btc = £38.50 p

So yep your pricing looks pretty spot on which is really nice to see :)

agreed if your buying 10 then the price drops to £34 per 1 gram bar so i can see where you are making ur mark up but that within reason and your not charging rates over http://coinabul.com/index.php/gold-weight.html who I had to wait 6 months for delivery!!

Any pics or ideas which gold bars you are going to be getting?

Many thanks

Fuzzybear

I fancy one of these!  ;D

Just to be clear, all I need to do is send 0.075 BTC to 1MMC3nVwBkDt96LHf8gT9xFc5uR6DfUe77 and then PM you the transaction ID along with my postal address?

@ Fuzzybear

No idea what the bars are going to look like, they are a pick and mix from the bullion dealer.

@ Stewy12

Yep, just send the 0.075 BTC to the address then drop me a pm the transaction id and your postal address and its job done.

As stated in the original post we need to hit a total of 10 bars to proceed, if we dont I will just refund the bitcoin.

We aren't talking massive amounts of bitcoin and I think with my profile feedback and reputation thread its a safe bet.

I don't mean to get up in your thread and all but, do you still a UK bullion site which accepts Bitcoin!?1

@ phoenixsilverbird - not sure on dimensions as bars will vary, lots on youtube if you want to get a rough idea of scale. purity will be 999 same as all investment bullion (except some coins which are lower than 999 but the actual gold weight is quoted)

@Knocks - I am going to covert the bitcoin to cash to place the order.

Is there any chance you could get 1/10 oz or 1/20 oz coins (Gold Eagles, Maple Leafs, Krugerrands etc)?

You should ask your customers to sign the transaction not just link it to you, that way you'll know who actually sent it and not who claims to have sent it

I mean the customer could then later verify they own the address but to make your transaction smoother it's best to ask them to sign the initial tx

How does one sign a TXID? When making purchases I just send the txid to the seller.
