Title: amagi metals Post by: brokenchair on February 20, 2015, 12:28:00 PM They price btc at a price lower than or = to btc-e, and significantly lower than bitstamp.
There selection and prices are worse than others. I was going to purchase some btc today and buy an item there, but I will lose money on buying btc (due to their undervalue of btc) and lose money on their items which are priced higher than their competitors. It is a shame really as I'd rather support them, but I am not overpaying because they undercut btc value. Even if I caught btc in an upswing, it would have to me more than $9 form my purchase price to break even......

Try provident metals instead.

I have bought from both Provident and Amagi, paying with Bitcoin. ONCE from Amagi (their shipment was very slow in my case: almost two weeks). Twice from Provident. Fast & professional, with nice low prices. Title: Re: amagi metals Post by: Dr Charles on February 20, 2015, 09:16:37 PM I have used provident metals several times as well as amagi and shinybars.com
good experience with all of them so far. Title: Re: amagi metals Post by: pawel7777 on February 21, 2015, 12:03:33 AM They use Bitpay and GoCoin as processors, so they don't set the BTC price themselves.
I just made a test order and the BTC exchange rate was slightly higher (by few cents) compared to BitStamp. Maybe OP was just unlucky with timing? And I like their style: http://i58.tinypic.com/2q8wly8.jpg AM have official thread so it's best to ask any questions directly there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=130831.0 Title: Re: amagi metals Post by: amagimetals on February 23, 2015, 05:35:20 PM They price btc at a price lower than or = to btc-e, and significantly lower than bitstamp.

Thank you for checking out AmagiMetals.com - as some other replies have stated, our Bitcoin price is aggregated from Bitpay. They take an average of several exchanges to set their price. You can read more about that here: https://bitpay.com/bitcoin-exchange-rates As far as our selection, we pride ourselves in our simplistic approach. If you are looking for a particular piece, please let us know. Questions can be sent to support@amagimetals.com and will promptly be answered. Thanks. |
