If you are in Chicagoland i might be willing to meet you.

Only in powder form, usually a powder sponge in a plastic container is the default storage method. It is used in jewelry because it is very resistant to corrosion and is very hard.

I think a good way to get this project moving is to start a community retail outlet. In exchange for the community providing members 3-D printers, they will agree to produce a certain number of 3-D prints per month at cost to the retail outlet. these could be custom or stock items depending on demand. Members with printers could also retail their goods at a markup to the general public to fund new members builds as well as profit personally. You could have a rotating cue so that as people order things the next member down the list has to make a print to fund the community. If a member decided not to pursue his hobby he could donate it back into the pool for the next member waiting in line. You could also get bulk discounts on raw materials for buying as a group. There would be a lot of advantages to this system, but the main problem would be how to decide on its management and who runs it legally and otherwise.

Will you ship first to a reputable member such as myself, and do you offer bulk rates?

I know how he is doing this and I think it is quite possibly legit. I am not going to rain on his parade tho.

I am selling a 1 gram 2009 Cohen Mint .999 rhodium bullion for BTC shipped insured to the USA. This is the very first mass produced rhodium bullion round on the market. In the past the metal was far too hard to be worked by machines of the time, only recently was it made possible with new minting technology. As far as I know this will be the first ever sale of rhodium bullion in exchange for Bitcoin. Who wants to join me in this first? PM me to order your own piece of history.

And according to them bug out bags, concealed carry, and ammunition stockpiling is suspicious behavior.

People who are pro prison labor are forgetting 2 very important things here. First and foremost even if you have zero concern for the prisoners, the fact is if they are working for pennies that drives everyone else's salary down, in prison or not. Second you are providing quite an incentive for a quota system, putting innocent people in greater danger of being imprisoned solely for profit. Some of the newer prisons that are being built by private companies are demanding 90% capacity BY CONTRACT. That means on an industrial level as well as the local level there is a quota, forcing officers to choose people to falsely prosecute or lose their job. So in short, it effects all of us not just the "criminal scum" everyone is fond of hating on while they forget to look how badly they are being fucked.

PM me a list of what you have

I am selling Bitcoins for cash via USPS set at the MTGOX high rate with no additional fees. I have over a years worth of rep, 300+ trades, and have been fronted $475 in the past with all debts paid as agreed. Please review my thread and my rep. Thank you.

A few reasons actually:
1) You are more likely to be approved
2) Zero identification requirements (less hassle and more anonymity)
3) Because my fraud rate will be lower I can offer larger loans at more inexpensive rates
4) Often people need Bitcoin loans in times of scarce Bitcoin liquidity, and in those times you will be less likely to get a non-collateralized loan.

Your attempts to slander me are childish and laughable. At this point the only person's reputation you are damaging is your own.

I'll pay 3 shipped to the US if you ship first. I have plenty of rep.

That is very true, but I do have google, and I know a whole lot of gamers.

So now you feel it necessary to slander me further? You made a mistake and this all could have been avoided by simply admitting it rather than attempting to intimidate and slander me into submission.

In case anyone is wondering if you can trust anything out of USAGI's mouth here is a direct quote after he reviewed my work:

..."So once again, the top center image and bottom center image are my two favorites and I would like to move forward with those. This is my first purchase of a logo so I'm unsure of what to do next. I originally had the idea that you would design a banner add as well (like the https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=38544.msg472116#msg472116]two for IBB or for bitcointrading). Almost anything would be good because there are no really good advertisements around here IMO. So I just need to get something out pretty quickly, although you can take your time (lol) if you like.

Ok so let's see. I assume you will want 15 bitcoins for all this. I like those logos so I can pay half (7.5) bitcoins right now for those logos? And then we can move forward on the banner add? Or what is your suggestion.. thanks"

It is quite obvious based on his statements posted on the above link he canceled the agreement because of his failing company. You reap what you sew buddy, and I wouldn't be here if you had stopped your slander.

I may or may not be willing to do this, really depends on price stability as well as resale market. I would certainly consider it tho. I suppose if it was priced correctly anything is possible. Obviously shipping costs would prohibit larger or heavier items, but there are still plenty of inexpensively shipped goods that would work. As far as what is acceptable and its value, just like any real life pawn shop you never know until you ask. What might be worth 1 BTC to me might be worth 3 to some one else. As the issuer of the loan I would have to consider the possibility of non-repayment and resale value of the item and price the loan and fee accordingly on a case by case basis.

That's the idea.
