Title: Bitcoin Reminder Band
Post by: FredericBastiat on May 15, 2012, 05:44:56 AM
I heard mention that there might be a few people interested in some bitcoin related jewelry type items.

My sister and I designed a reminder band for bitcoin. Take a look and let me know.

The inside of the band says "MINED YOUR OWN BUSINESS." I liked the play on words. The external artwork is a bit more cryptic, but I'm sure most of you will figure out any subtle meanings.

I'm selling them for .3 BTC + .3 BTC for shipping (stateside).

Total .6 BTC. Drop me a PM.

They are a chain of 1's and 0's. There is other artwork (embossed lettering) which is a little harder to interpret.

The dimensions are as follows:

The "face" artwork is 1" x 1" on a side.
The band width is .5".

The band is 1 BTC because of the low volume order size. I only ordered 200 total (I wasn't sure of the level of interest). Volume discounts are higher for larger orders.

Additionally, the artwork is unique in that it has a "face" portion (which is extra), and it has both embossed and debossed artwork spanning the entire circumference of the band. Usually you do one or the other. I did both -and had to twist a few arms at that.

And finally there is also a written message on the inside of the band for which there is an additional charge.

The manufacturer told me with the above design artwork it would require multiple finishing passes. I hope that explains a few things for you.

Something I forgot to mention:

Package Tracking costs an additional .2 BTC. Just trying to keep costs down.

Update:

Since I haven't been able to convince the post office I can fit my reminder band into a width less than 3/4" in a uniform manner, the cost of international shipping is going to be .8 BTC for the time being.

If anybody has any ideas of how to make the item fit convincingly inside these dimensions (12 x 7 x .75") in a uniform non-rigid manner, that would be appreciated. I'm no shipping expert.

And finally, depending on where the shipment is going to, I may not be able to supply tracking information.
