I'll start the bidding at 0.65BTC for it providing I can find a good UK escrow or someone else who I can deliver it to (so I can keep my identity private) - could you estimate shipping fees anduck and is there any chance it can be shipped from the EU (I saw on your other thread you can ship from both)?

I assume I'll get 48 hours (or more) to pay once the bidding ends also?

Try Zepher. He is in the uk.

Also I rented a PO. Box that i use for all my non personal deliveries. It helps with keeping your privacy. ;)

Thanks, I'll contact him if my friend in the UK is unable to take it.

PO. Boxes are really expensive though aren't they (and I'm too lazy to go to the sorting office and pick up stuff)? It's like £80 a month or something (I normally have a second address of a trusted party to send it to but that's gone also).

Thanks for the bid.

I estimate shipping fees to be less than $50. This coin is located in USA and will be shipped from there. Payment in a few days after auction is over is OK.

In the USA I think I paid $80 for the year.

Since the coin is in the US, I could escrow and have it shipped to me if needed and hold for later reshipping.
Let me know.... :D

My main issue is customs, so I'd like a UK/EU based escrow that could sort that if there are any issues.

If anduck is able to send it from the EU though then there's no problem with here...

P.O. Boxes in the USA come around to $120 a year in NYC. Quite cheap compared to the UK. Why so expensive?

It’s a cost benefit kind of thing :D
In the U.K. there are private P.O. boxes and the one offered by the national post service. They charge £222.5 for 12 months for a collection service and £275 for a delivery one. It’s more expensive than those in the US but the P.O. box you get has royal approval ;D

Yeah... I usually have a place I can redirect stuff to but not any more.


As an update (if anyone's interested): I sent the funds for the coin to anduck and am just waiting on blazed to sort out my shipping (which will hopefully be done later today).

I can confirm that I have now received a loaded Casascius half with anacs accreditation.

Thank you Anduck and Blazed for the swift service, hopefully I will have more trades like this in the future here!

@Anduck, you can now lock this thread if this was what you were waiting for to do so (or leave it open as you wish).
