Title: Shipping candy and treats worldwide.
Post by: Fmato on July 12, 2014, 09:43:59 AM
It has come to my attention in this thread:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=680491.new#new

That some places are lacking in the ability to get american made candies in their respective countries.  Notably, the person who cannot get Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in his country very often.

I have a solution.

I will send any candy that is available in the USA, anywhere worldwide.  I will charge cost of item, plus shipping, plus 2%. (NOW 5%)

Escrow is welcome.  If you have any requests, let me know, and I will get on it right away.

EDIT:  Price will be-

Price of candy
Price of shipping
+5% (from 2% initially)

How mutch do you charge for shipping to EU? Do you offer refunds in case it gets lost?

You might want to think about your service. It's great that you're offering this but at only a 2% premium you could easily lose that very quickly if the price of bitcoin goes down and then you're out of pocket, and also like SirChiko said items are more likely to go missing in the international post and to ship them with tracking is usually very expensive. Good luck though.

I would be interested in some M&M's, sour patch kids and reeces  :)

It theoreticaly could work but he would have to do bulk with tracking as from overseas it's like 50/50 and with summer incomming alot of candies would probably melt so that's another problem :/

Shipping to where?  I can quote you a price, and can most likely send out to you first, and you pay on receipt, with your history here.
