General information

You are ONLY bidding for the bar itself, not the bitcoin value inside the bar. If you win a bar, you can choose to buy it loaded which will add the BTC to the auction price. Or you can choose to buy it empty. To the US we can only sell bars that are not loaded by us. The "empty" bars can easily be loaded with bitcoin value by the customer himself/herself, however.

These gold bars are VAT free. Duties and taxes may apply depending your country. The buyer is responsible for the possible duties and taxes.

Shipping cost

Free of charge worldwide! The value of this is around 50 € on average depending on the location, so keep that in mind when bidding. :)

Serial numbers

All the bars have special closing sale serials (C). The serials reserved for the bars in this auction are C1, C2, C3, C4. These are very special since all the bars sold at the website have either L (loaded) or E (empty) serials and the bars from our earlier auctions have the A (auction) serials.

The winners of the auction can (in succession starting from the highest bidder) choose which serial they want. It can be the lowest available but also one of the others. You have 5 days to answer which serial number you want.

Shipping date

Estimated delivery within a week from the end of the auction. Further delays may apply due to the Corona virus.

How to bid

You can bid for any amount of bars from 1 bar to 4 bars. The bidding format is "2 @ 0.4" which means "I'm bidding for 2 bars, 0.4 bitcoins each". If you want to bid for one bar only, post "1 @ 0.4". If for all of them, post "5 @ 0.4". The auction is conducted by using at most 2 decimals. So you can bid "2 @ 0.21" but DO NOT bid "2 @ 0.211".

So if I were bidding for 2 bars and 0.4 BTC each, I would post "2 @ 0.4".

Each winner will pay exactly the amount that they bid. Meaning that if the highest bidder bid 0.4 bitcoin and the lowest winning bidder bid 0.2 bitcoin, then the highest bidder will pay 0.4 bitcoin for his bar and the lowest winning bidder will pay 0.2 bitcoin for his.

Please note that it is not allowed to make a new bid that is lower than your previous bid. The highest bid you have made stands.

Auction rules

- When you post a bid, the bids in your previous posts are considered to be automatically canceled (unless the bid was lower than your previous bid in which case the previous bid stands). You can put multiple bids in one post, however.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by 0.01.
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will be first in line to win a bar.
- Bids are considered invalid and will be ignored if they do not specify the price of the bid and the amount of bars the bidder is bidding for, or if they could not possibly win any slots.
- Bids lower than your previous bids are considered invalid. Highest bid made stands.
- Winning bidders must inform me within 24 hours after the end of the auction which serial number they are choosing. Then the winner has another 24 hours to pay the full auction price.

If these rules are confusing, please ask in the thread and we will answer.

We will reserve the right to reject bids, even days after the bid is made. If bids are rejected for any reason, the next bids in line that didn't win originally, will come into play and will have a chance to buy a bar.

Note: Communication regarding the auction can happen via either the account of the original poster OR the official Denarium account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=523013).

Important: Auction payments should ONLY be paid through a Coinpayments link that we send to the winner. Do not, under any circumstances, make payment to a Bitcoin address sent by PM.

At the moment we will not deliver these products to Brazil, India, Russia, Iran and North Korea. Other temporary restrictions may occur due to the coronavirus, but we will ship the products as soon as possible.

Note: If you can not send a direct message here, please use the email address store@denarium.com

If you don’t want to send your address through Bitcointalk private message, then you can also use Privnote service https://privnote.com/

Good luck!

Yes. The minimum bid was, at the start of the auction, the approximate value of the raw gold content in one bar. Makes no sense for us to sell it lower than that. Bitcoin value fluctuates a lot currently but we're still close to the gold oz value so the minimum bid stands for now.

Starting bid lowered to 0.55 BTC due to changes in the BTC/XAU value ratio.

Please do research before you SPAM people via private message inviting them to you ass backwards auctions.  I think you, and denarium are too incompetent to run an auction.... let alone a business.  I think you have the worst quality control in the business.  Check that.... you HAD the worst quality control in the business.
