What kinda markup structure are you thinking? For instance, are you offering over the counter retail customer prices? Discounted prices similar to what your dealer sells to other shops? Or a tiny markup over dealer cost? And I'm assuming you are in the states.... Makes a big difference too.
Here's a case that I had a couple years ago... Blew the rear end on my car (v8 sedan) local dealer here in Canada quoted me $3600, called a dealer just over the border to see the price and if a trip would be worth while, $2500 (usd/cad was nearly equal) then called a contact at a dealer across the country who does special prices for forum members.... Shipped for $1850
So, needless to say I get all my parts (own 2 performance GM vehicles) from my contact on the other side of the continent.... Offering parts for btc is great, if it's a better deal then the local over the counter prices.

17719 seems to be suspiciously light in rewards. Thanks
agreed, kinda 1/2 of normal |

I didn't have enough btc change at the time, but did the quick flip for $8 worth. Since then have done some more dabbling in the fiat.usd that has proved profitable if I'm patient.

they all balance out.
last week we had a 10s block and then 2 or 3 later a 2s block.

I have had orders take 3wks to go from processing to shipped in the past, currently on 2wks processing for my most recent order.
With less staff I wouldn't expect the wait times to get any better. Meanwhile a competitor is hiring additional staff to cope with the onslaught of BTC orders, I've got one in with them too, I bet it arrives first even though it was placed 12days later.
March 27th order, marked as complete and shipped April 18th..... Slow, but apparently on the way. |

Thought it was against eBay rules to sell something you don't physically posses?

Nice to see people forget about their open orders that effectively value 1btc at $250 many hours after the fall down to the $170 range.... Only wish they were offering more then $10 worth. Ah well, a good use of the btc change in my account.

http://www1.datafilehost.com/d/afdd7863Link to the Bitfunder Asset list for BAKEWELL, strange its 21 shares short (5979 of 6000) and it shows that there was 6000 when he last paid a dividend. Its a google docs spreadsheet and has % thrown in. We need Mr./Mrs. 1123/966/730 shares to speak up that's 47% in those 3 people.

Again, can fourd00rgtz manage the needed Canadian legal action?
Didn't really offer, mostly because I agree with the quote below. Nothing is going to be legaly enforcable, but the avalons and gaming rigs should be repurposed for the "company" if possible. Just mentioned that I drive through Edmonton to get to work... Not that I wanted to be the sole plaintiff. But I'll put my 300 shares behind TradeFortress for CEO. If this isn't a real company, then you really need to think about the legal liability to which your actions could be exposing you. What is the actual legal basis for taking control of BAKEWELL and its assets without a court order?
If BAKEWELL is not a legitimate legal entity, it has no legal priority over any other creditors of Ian's and you could be creating a legal clusterfuck by trying to take control of assets for the exclusive benefit of BAKEWELL shareholders. Yifu should be extremely careful about accepting any claims to the Avalons and should get his own legal advice about the validity of such claims.

I am only out ~10btc (damnit that's $2k+ today), but I do live in Calgary AB and drive to work through (more like around on the ring road) Edmonton on my way to work south of Ft. Macmurray AB. I drive a company vehicle and carry another employee. Meaning I cannot stop for a few hours on my way through and be the P.I. that might be wanted..... My personal vehicles are also currently down for repairs so I wouldn't be helpful on days off either for a while.
Should I be the only/closest one willing to help, I'll do what I can but whats needed is someone from Edmonton (1m people) because its a 3hr drive each way for me from my place.

Just realized that the 10s block was my best reward for the day. Almost 10x the average.
I snuck in 8 shares on the 2s block for 0.08btc, that's like $18/2s or $129600 per hour, lol. |

Trying you out for the first time, hope all goes well. Bummer about delays, I just added a couple silver maples to top up the order, sigh.

I happpen to know Ian Bakewell works in the Alberta oilfields. There isn't much infrastructure out there.
Not really true, depends where you are. I'm in a camp of 800 people, got (capped) fibre optic internet, 40" flatscreen cable tv, a gym, basketball/volleyball court, arcade, theatre, 2 hockey rinks, baseball diamond (in summer) Pretty sure Ian is on the run, or at least changed as much of the public info about him as possible and laying VERY low. |

Im wondering if it's worth mining with my laptop, seeing as it's on 24x7 even when Im not using it.
Im running Linux ubuntu. It's an Intel CPU T2130 @ 1.86GHz × 2, with 3.2 GB RAM.
As I understand it. If it did do mining, it would only be at all worthwhile by joining a mining pool eg p2pool.
by the way the laptop is connected to the net 24x7 as well, sits in my office all the time, I dont carry this one around anywhere.
any thoughts?
Well at least you're on the right track with a pool. But that laptop is of such an age that it almost certainly can't have a gpu worth mining on. Fastest mobile gpu in the charts barely gets 60mhs. Here is a link to the charts. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparisonAnd a calculator, http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator60mhs at today's difficulty makes $20 a month! And if not for the recent run up that would be about $3 |

For the last week or so I have pointed each 50% of my hashes to slush and another merged NMC pool. On slush I got confirmed 1.42348140 NMC, on the other pool 4.15565092 NMC. In other words about three times as much on the other pool.
How come there is such a big difference?
The merged namecoin mining is only done by the portion of the pool that is still on the old get work protocol. Therefore only about 6% of the pools total hash power is going towards merged mining, and then divided by all who have the option turned on. |
