WARNING TO ALL: POSSIBLE SCAM

I have strong reason to believe this is a scam. OP offered me 2 x 1ozt Silver Rounds for .05 Bitcoins each. So, I would have been getting 2 ounces of silver for about $10. Red flag #1. I asked the OP if he would do escrow. He said "I guess...but its only about $10". He then told me that I would have to pay him cash for shipping because he has none. Red flag #2. He said that his local pawn shop would not buy his silver rounds because they already had a lot of the same round. Pawn shop owners don't think like that. To them, silver=silver. And, with the low spot price of silver now, I imagine pawn shop owners would be happy to buy ANYTHING silver. Red flag #3.

PROCEED WITH CAUTION

It changes everyday...but show me a price and I will try to beat it. And yes, willing to do escrow. No shadiness going on here, I just want to take advantage of my ability to get items cheaper than retail and make some money.

Yes, very willing to do in-person deals. Especially since some orders will have to be in cash. Literally you could give me the cash, wait outside for me to buy your stuff with my unspoken/informal employee discount, I buy your stuff (cheaper than you'd find it anywhere else-that's the idea!), give it to you, we shake hands and walk away pleased.

Pictures! As you can see, its primarily the numismatic stuff on display. There are some popular bullion items on display (random 1oz bars, Maple Leaves, Libertads, Eagles, etc). Usually 10oz bars are always in stock (not displayed), and an order can always be placed (usually for 100oz bars or "Monster Boxes"). As you can see, some fractional and numismatic gold is on display. Also there is the sole PAMP bar. Its not the only one currently in stock-the owner just has a thing about putting out too much gold. PAMP bars are the most common form of gold bullion we sell, but basically always in-stock are 1oz Eagles, Indian Heads, and occasionally things like 1oz Maple Leaves and sometimes even Krugerrands. If you see something you like in the pictures-cool, let me know. Otherwise, I envisioned this more as you are seeking a particular item and I will grab it for you. PM w/any interest or questions.

Thanks!

Hi everybody,

I have liked to stockpile redeemed Casascius coins for some time. The offer permanently stands (until I say otherwise-unless I get hit by a rush and can't afford it-very unlikely): I will trade you $1 Face Value of pre-'65 US junk silver coins (I'll even to my best to accommodate whichever denomination(s) you want-dimes, quarters, or halves).

Anyways, I am offering this redeemed 2011 (error-had hologram misspelling...but not like you can distinguish anyway) 1BTC Casascius Coin/Round. It is a desirable collectible in and of itself. However, you can also reload it (I can provide you with materials and instructions if you want to do this).

You can use brass polish to get this coin looking perfect. Or, believe it or not, you can use ketchup. It does the trick-maybe not as well as brass polish, but pretty well. I'd clean it for you but I literally have no ketchup (if my girlfriend grocery shops and buys ketchup before I ship, I'll do it for you lol).

I'm not going to put a price on this piece of history...if you're interested, please post your offer here and if I find one I like, I'll PM you.

Thanks!


(its tough to make out the year...I promise its 2011 lol)

Hi everybody,
I want to sell just one of my 1BTC Casascius Coins (a 2013). It has literally never been touched by human hands (unless Casascius touches them...maybe that adds value lol). I used gloves and put them from their packaging into an airtite case w/protective ring (which I sell-look for that thread!). I am taking offers on this coin. It is not an auction because there is no guaranteed "winner". And, when I find a price I like I'll take it. It all includes regular (USPS First Class) shipping anywhere in the USA. I will ship via Priority for $5. I am also willing to ship internationally for $3 (via USPS First Class Intl...any other method is at least $20 but if you want to pay for it thats fine by me. Although I have sent several coins internationally via First Class and never had a problem). If interested, please send me a PM. I would also be interested in trade(s) for gold/silver.

So, offer away!

Thanks!

If that is correct and you are selling 1oz .999 rounds for .05 BTC I am interested in both.

Bump for restock and slightly lower prices I'm willing to sell at!

You must be a freshman LAWLZ

At first glance this seemed like a good idea. But think about it-is more public surveillance in any form a good thing?

There is a difference between being skeptical of your government and being what I think is safe to call a "conspiracy theorist". This is conspiracy theory FUD. 800 camps? Like someone said, why does no picture of even 1 of them exist? and guillotines? Come on, are we living in Medieval Times or something? Of states that DO practice capital punishment, not ONE of them uses a guillotine...and hasn't for any period that could be considered modern history. Of the 32 states that practice capital punishment, the method for all of them is lethal injection. The Supreme Court even ruled that death by electrocution was unconstitutional. Plus guillotines-if you want to kill someone-are just plain impractical. They're messy, require cooperation by the victim, etc.

I hate this kind of FUD. It encourages the labeling of anyone who's skeptical of the government for any reason some sort of psycho.

For the record, you can be skeptical of your government without believing crap like this.

Hey everybody,
For only 0.02 BTC, (0.028 BTC if you are international, I will teach you how to turn ANY physical object into a bitcoin wallet. You could turn a lamp into a bitcoin wallet, your wall a bitcoin wallet-even YOURSELF a bitcoin wallet. I will include the only material you don't already have-a tamper-proof hologram and mail it to you.

Sound interesting? Go for it, you have nothing to lose. Its only 0.02BTC!

These are cool...it would have been nice to have a QR code on there, though!

Shipping from Southern California, USA. I'd have to look into litecoins some more, but maybe! Where are you located?

Thanks a lot! To everyone else, I will take plenty of pictures the next day I'm scheduled to work. What is out on display though are primarily numismatic items, (its not that exciting to have silver buffaloes everywhere) but there is definitely a good amount of bullion on display, too.

Since the shop is so high-volume and buys, there are a lot of unique pieces that flow in and out. Thats how I got lucky with my Norfed and Silver Bullet Silver Shield coins. Remember, there silver is silver.

The shop usually always has bars of all sizes in stock. Brands always vary. Also, generic rounds are always available, along with a basically constant supply of Eagles, Perth Mint stuff, Libertads...it depends, but not just "generic" rounds-untouched rounds from National Mints (which usually always carry a slightly higher premium than the generic rounds).

As far as gold goes, supply is not as great as silver-just for the time being. Its just a consequence of the recent price drop of gold. Odds are though you can always snag at least 1 Pamp Bar or 1oz Eagle without being put on the waiting list (usually takes only a few days). Their supply of fractional and numismatic gold is pretty good. Its on display, too, so you will see pictures of it.

Of course what is available is what is available. But its a very high volume coin shop-if you want something particular thats hard to find elsewhere, odds are you can find it there. So, if you have any request for a more unique/rare/just hard to find item, let me know.

Will update with pics soon. Please stay posted.

Thanks!

Hi evyerone,
For sale is a 2002 Kookaburra 1ozt silver round. It is made by Perth Mint, the official mint of Australia. Lots of people collect exclusively Perth Mint stuff, the Kookaburra being the most popular item! You will never find one for a small premium over spot. Check eBay, APMex, or anywhere else...this coin is always sold at a premium. I am offering it at $35 ()-a price I literally think you won''t find elsewhere (even for cash). This includes free USPS First Class postage. If you would like it shipped via another method I would be happy to oblige. Also, I am willing to ship internationally. I would ship via USPS First Class International for $3.75 (). Any kind of registered/trackable international shipping is at least $20, but again I would be happy to oblige if thats what you want to do.

Case Included!
*I do not know what that eyelash looking thing came from.




Thanks!

Persistance really does pay off. The shop owner of the coin store I've been going to for about a year, 3 times a week finally offered me a part-time position (I asked if he had any work available a long time ago).

Truthfully I don't know how he ran his shop with only himself and one other full-time employee. He said he hired me now so that he could go to sleep at night-considering the state of silver and especially gold at the moment. The store is very high volume in terms of both buying and selling. Its inventory is massive (this shop was the only one within about a 15 mile radius that had Silver when the price dropped like it did recently).

I won't even list specifically what is available because the answer is just about everything. As far as the bullion aspect of the store goes, they sell everything from 100ozt silver bars (and even a 1,000ozt bar one time, he said) to 10ozt bars, 5ozt bars, sometimes even 3ozt bars (RARE), and of course 1ozt bars. Also there's always 90% junk US silver on hand. And, in the "buy back" bin (1 ozt are ALWAYS $1.50 over spot) I sometimes get lucky and find Norfed Rounds, Old Engelhards, and recently the rarest Silver Bullet Silver Shield round. I asked why he doesn't pull coins like that out (he could obviously make more money if he did)-he said because he thinks the notion of Numismatic Bullion is 1) ridiculous and 2) too much to keep up with. Silver is silver for him. Its not always for me, so I get very lucky sometimes!

Regarding gold bullion they carry 1ozt bars (usually always PAMP Suisse), American Eagles, Maple Leafs, Krugerrands, Pandas, Libertads, Philharmonics, Perth Mint Stuff, and a few more. These are almost always available in-stock as 1ozt, 1/10 ozt, and 1/20ozt (not all countries make this size...but I know Canada and Mexico does) pieces. Also, he sells gold that has numismatic (rare coin) value, too. Some of those pieces are really cool.

Occasionally, too, he's got an item thats not one you see everyday. By this I mean things like 5oz Libertads, 5oz Perth Mint stuff, etc. There's a small section for old American paper notes. Its pretty cool-there's everything from a ticket to the world fair when Lincoln was president to more common and rare denomination Confederate Bills. There are a couple binders full of world paper notes, most of them professionally graded.

The owner's true passion are his rare coin; Numismatics. He does sell "raw" (not professionally graded coins), but only if they are "BU" (Brilliant Uncirculated) or a key date/mintmark or interesting (like communist/fascist stuff-and more). His collection of "raw" world coins is extensive. He said (and it makes sense) that it is those coins that passers-by who decide to check out the shop end up buying. There are plenty of them in everyone's price range (examples-I bought a USSR coin with Lenin's face on it for $2.95. I bought an AD 235 Roman Silver Denarius for $35. The list goes on). They're one of my favorite things to look at when I browse the shop.

In closing with the above, keep in mind that a "numismatic" coin could and most likely does (most rare coins are old-and they usually made them out of precious metals) hold rare metal value, too!

Finally, and it might be the majority of what is ALWAYS in stock, he has a HUGE collection of professionally graded coins. There are a ton of "coin grading" companies. Most of them are scams-they put your coin in a capsule and hastily grade it. Some fake rare coins (it was done as a test) were sent off to be graded by some of these "companies". A number didn't even recognize them as fakes! Anyways, there are only 2 real respected grading companies in the "numismatic world". They are [acronyms] NGC and PCGS. An argument could be made that ANACs is respected, too. It is, but not to high enough a standard for him...only coins graded by either NGC or PCGS are in his store, he said (doesn't buy back any others and certainly doesn't sell them). Let that be a testament to the shop and what they sell.

Wow, I'm sorry this is so long a post. To summarize what I wanted to get across: I would love to be the "precious metals/rare coins guy" on here. If you wanted any sort of item, I could get it for you. The store's prices and premiums over spot are very reasonable-you can get an ounce of silver for $1.50 over spot.  And I definitely wouldn't be making a killing off of this service (by any means). A huge part of it is I just like coins. If you want, before you buy a coin/bullion piece, whatever it may be, I would be happy to consult with you if something seems sketchy, or just to double check. The last thing I have to say is right here: If you are looking for ANY tough to find silver and/or gold pieces, as well as rare coins, and obviously are trying to find the best deal, please at least PM me to see if I can help (I bet I can   )

*As far as prices go, show me the lowest price you can find and I will see if I can beat it!*

**Also, I feel obligated to say that I will not be able to accommodate all orders to be paid for in BTC. I wish I could, but I just graduated (college) and already have loans I have to pay back. I'll certainly accommodate orders in BTC as best as I can. But, what I'm trying to do is build-up a reputation for offering the lowest prices (cash) on bullion/coin items, as well as cash-handling trust. I've done I can't even begin to count how many transactions in BTC-but I feel like cash is a different game to people.**

Thanks!

So as soon as Amagi mails me the AG-47, I'll have the complete SBSS series. I can take a picture if any one is interested. I do not want to piece this out-I want to sell it as a set only. Please feel free to post/PM me your offers if interested. Below are pictures of all the rounds. Again, I can take one of mine if someone is interested (they are all in mint condition, been in airtite cases since I got them).

haha, at least you have the most important part!
