I still haven't received the coin despite paying 0.44BTC ( $110 at the time ) for it on 15-10:

Last message I had said it had been sent on 26-10.

I never received tracking info ( he didnt have it ) despite being told it has been sent several times.

I've given bitmarket.io the benefit of the doubt for nearly a month now but enough is enough.

He's not replied to my last 3 PM's again despite being online.

I'll give it until the end of the week for the coin to arrive or receive a refund before opening up a scam accusation thread and leaving negative trust.

P.S. I dont like to air my dirty laundry in public but feel I now have no other option.

While he finally made repayment, at the very most a neutral would have been plenty, especially when he leaves Negatives for those that left him Negative Trust for defaulting.
As far as his "story", at least it wasn't the car wreck saga.

"1 red flag is ok, but gaining 3 red flags from 3 different parties for one defaulted loan?!?!?! What the fuck is going on here? False positive man, please delete your red flag from my account. "

False positive......he defaults and it's a false positive. 

Many escrows cannot provide support for physical goods; so I thought to act this way, following these 3 steps:



1. Buyer send funds to a trusted escrow ( I suggest master-p or SebastianJu )
2. When escrow receives funds from the buyer, I will send the gun directly to the buyer, with a shipping tracking id. In the meanwhile escrow holds the money and keep it safe.
3. When the buyer receives the gun, escrow can release funds to me.

Too many variables still up in the air. My post was a little premature. 

Perhaps a general question for the time being: What is everyone's opinion on what these are worth?

what is your price offer regarding Samsung SSD? because i am trying to offer that kind of SSD as well.
btw he might mean he can assemble by himself.

I have 2 in hand. 10$ each + shipping

ty for adding now can be on track with a fantastic sig campaign once again. Shame others went the way they did but am think am a stay here for the count as all ones been in previously where good but didnt last.

I can justify that, by being left with the redeemed coin, which ive seen go for ~1BTC, minus the delivery cost and stress.

How much you selling yours for?

AFAIK, none of the exchanges have anything that comes remotely close to FDIC insurance, and as a result it is nowhere near as safe to leave anything of value at an exchange as it is to leave it at an FDIC insured bank. This is why you can presently receive roughly 16.18% APY by leaving your fiat at bitfinex for a year (if you assume you would receive the current flash return rate for a year), verses getting roughly 0.51% APY (according to bankrate.com) at a FDIC insured bank in a Money Market account.

As a general rule, no you should not leave neither BTC nor fiat at an exchange for any period of time, however there may be exceptions to this rule. For example, if you think your computer is infected with malware, but such malware has not yet stolen your BTC, then moving your BTC to an exchange account that has 2fa enabled will probably result in a lower chance of you getting your BTC stolen.

You also need to factor in the opportunity cost of the time it takes to transfer BTC from your bank to your exchange account if you like to frequently trade speculative trades, as this delay may result in you loosing out in being able to buy low, and sell high

Yeah, then you're like "fuck, I can't go back..."

Paying a BTC1-2 premium for a BTC25 coin is NUTS. These guys scored big! That's a small fee to pay!

That would be my preferred option, if i couldnt find the right collector.

The 10BTC sold for 19BTC. So each coin mysteriously acquires its own premium value. Thats the magic of Casascius, i guess.  

The fact is, the 25BTC's dont publicly change hands often enough to really know what the premium is for it. It certainly aint a measly +2BTC/less than 10%. Blazed found 2 desperate, and lost souls there.  

Why anyone would sell @27BTC or below, is utterly baffling to me.   

Even though it sucks for us i don't really see a problem with it lol. It's their campaign and we have a choice weather to be a part of it or not

Ok. Ive been reunited with my treasured 25BTC Gold Casascius again, while i went gallivanting around Europe. Now i have it in my hands again, its again time to try and see what its worth to someone.

Just to piss on my own sale right from the start......i cant bring myself to post this coin. I want a face-to-face sale, somewhere in UK/Europe (currently in France, but will travel).
If someone wants this posted, thats doable, but you are trusting me to post it, and the postal service to safely deliver it, as full payment is needed beforehand.
Maybe an international buyer knows and trusts someone in UK/Europe that i could hand this over to. Whatever, i wont be posting it unless the buyer assumes all risk. Sorry.

I want 32BTC for this coin.

          This could possibly be the last 25BTC Casascius to be funded.

Cheers
