741  Economy / Goods / Re: Limited edition, hand-drawn design, digitally printed #IamSatoshi T-shirts. on: June 03, 2013, 02:55:24 AM
The price is 1BTC because the shirts are hand drawn by an illustrator and are printed per sale. Shipping is free. We also use the highest quality digital print.
Please support our video documentary project with 1 BTC. The shirts are meant to be sent for free.

You'd have better luck selling them individually. I would buy one of these for sure and pay .25 BTC for one delivered.
You definitely would. I would only want the first design. $130 (about) is a lot for a few t-shirts, too. But that doesn't take away from how cool they are.
742  Economy / Goods / Re: what do you guys think of this tshirt ?? on: June 03, 2013, 01:50:36 AM
Well I definitely don't like the f-bomb on the back. I would never wear a shirt with that on it. Personally.
+1
I believe all altcoins (even Litecoins) are a joke. Acknowledging them by putting them on a tshirt bothers me. And I don't get it-is the point of the shirt supposed to be which currency will be more succesful, Bitcoins or Litecoins? Is there even a question there? No offense but I think only a VERY small population of people would even agree with what you have on the shirt, let alone buy it.
743  Economy / Goods / Does Anyone Have a [Bit]Coin They Want to Submit for Grading and Encapsulating? on: June 03, 2013, 01:40:33 AM
I have a lot of experience sending coins off to get graded. I have been a member of NGC for a number of years-they grade all my coins. There are a TON of coin grading companies. But you could literally decrease the value of your coin if you choose the wrong one. Plenty of grading "companies" exist, and ridiculously over-grade coins and have even let some fake ones slip-by, so having your coin graded by any one of them is literally a waste of money. There are THREE grading companies considered reputable, and having your coin graded by them will increase its value. The companies are NGC, PCGS and ANACs. Only ANACs grades Casascius coins (and I was QUITE suprised to find out they did). Since I first saw a Casascius coin graded and encapsulated by ANACs, I have wanted one for myself. Their fees are a bit high, though.

BUT if you submit five coins for grading, you quality for a discount, and only pay $12 (plus shipping) per coin-a HUGE discount; otherwise you would be paying a minimum of $29 (plus shipping).

I already have 2 coins I want to submit for grading. I am looking for other people who would like to have their Casascius coins graded. I need 3 more submissions to qualify for that discount-it would be optimal if they came from one person, but they could just as well come from separate people.

I would need you to ship your coin to me so that I could ship all of the 5 coins together. I will provide you with tracking info, everything necessary to provide COMPLETE transparency. I just want to get my coins graded for less, I have no other intentions (hopefully my reputation proves that).

How you choose to ship your coin to me is up to you. I will ship them back to you insured, via USPS First Class Parcel Post ($5).

Now, the price per grading of each coin is $12. However, ANACs charges a rather high fee for shipping (because they only do so by insured, registered mail). This is another reason why sending your coin along with others is a good idea-you pay only 1/5 (per coin) the cost of shipping to ANACs. I just checked-the total cost for return shipping from ANACs for 5 coins (you choose your own method and pay yourself to get your coin to ANACs) is $26, so $5.20 per coin.

SO, a general breakdown of cost:

1.$x.xx (cost of sending and return shipping (you can just include cash, postage stamps, whatever) of mailing your coin to me and me mailing it back (you can choose any shipping method you want)
2. $12 grading fee by ANACs
3. $5.20/coin for return shipping from ANACs
Estimate of total: $27
If you submitted the coin for grading yourself: $29 grading fee, $19 return shipping from ANACs fee, (estimate) $5 to send your coin to ANACs. Total=$53

That is why it makes so much sense to do it as a group. All prices quoted can be found on ANAC's site: anacs.com (http://anacs.com/PDFFiles/submissionform.pdf)

SO, lets get our coins graded for about half the price it would otherwise cost us! Doesn't this look awesome?

how about a pocket for flash drives?

746  Economy / Goods / Re: Selling Exotic Cars on: June 02, 2013, 10:34:08 AM
: I am NOT the seller OR the broker, I DO NOT have physical access to the cars, let alone take pictures of them.
So you're on this forum trying to sell high priced, exotic cars, that you have never seen, touched, or verified to be real. Makes sense.
: I am friends with a person on FACEBOOK who is a broker HE HAS access to those pictures NOT ME.
Seriously? Facebook friends? So you have never met, spoken to on the phone, called him/her at work, or verified any of this? Makes even more sense.
: The picture (of the Aston Martin) I where I sourced it from was from the BROKER's FACEBOOK PROFILE, uploaded in 2011 (correct me if I m wrong)
So a person on Facebook posts a pic of a sweet ass exotic car and that makes it their car? Or a car they are selling/have access too? Thats legit.
: The picture on the teamspeed website (of the SAME ASTON MARTIN that I posted here) is uploaded by a user who is BANNED ON THAT WEBSITE (see the link again) who clearly had access to The SELLER's picture from some other broker or some other source, as my friend could not possibly have been the ONLY broker who had the pictures. Moreover the PICTURE UPLOADED ON THE TEAMSPEED WEBSITE IS IN 2012 ! Which CLEARLY proves my point !
Okay so look lets play a game. I am going to go create a facebook profile of some smoking hot chick. Then I am going to stroll through the rich area where I live and snap a bunch of pics of high end cars in driveways, garages, at the local winery, I will even have a few friends dress up and pose with all of them then I will friend request you and you can help me sell all of my cars okay?
: I do not want to obtain ANY PERSON'S BTC OR ANY FORM OF MONEY ! any one interested in buying can Go ahead and exchange it via coinharvest themselves. Ask me about the car that you are looking for I ask my broker friend, he confirms that he has a seller available I forward you the contact of my broker and you talk it out with him AND PAY THE ACTUAL SELLER AFTER VERIFYING AND INSPECTING EVERYTHING !

Please tell me how the buyer is NOT protected here and how can I possibly run away with the money.
Then why are you here? Why are you doing this? It doesn't make sense.

So just to recap;
You know a guy on Facebook
That guy said he is a broker for high end vehicles
The pics for the vehicles are the same pics that can be found on various websites around the internet
You have never met this guy
You have never seen the cars
You're doing this all out of the kindness of your heart and don't want a penny for your time or energy

Seems legit. Can I get a 2004-2006 Bentley Continental, black, black leather, black out rims, K thanks.
+1,000 for taking the time to do all that
747  Economy / Services / Appraise a Casascius collection for me? on: June 02, 2013, 10:29:33 AM
I am thinking of selling some of my Casascius coins. I was hoping one (several, actually would be the best) of you would be so kind to appraise the following for me (total amount in BTC). You'll be a huge help in me getting a sense of an asking price. So, thank you all!

1. 1 x unused (from when Casascius sold the roll your owns) 5BTC blank w/0.5BTC on it.
2. 1 x 2012 1 BTC
3. 1 x cleaned 2011 blank loaded w/1 BTC
4. 3 x 2012 1BTC
5. 1 x 2013 0.5 BTC

I have no experience in this matter but what about a stealth PayPal account? Could you link to it instead of your regular PayPal account and if it gets restricted, just shed it off and get another one?
What is a stealth PayPal account ?
And no,  not likely considering you have to have a card tied to your account. I suppose you could get one of those gift Visa cards. But any money you make via PayPal you'd have to spend online. You wouldn't be able to link it to your bank account.
Plus I sold a lot on eBay, so PayPal gave me a debit card and I had instant access to my money as soon as the customer paid.
 
749  Economy / Economics / Re: Video: Bitcoin Ponzi scheme on: June 02, 2013, 04:38:29 AM
LOL Chris Duane. He loves to "expose" everyone else as running some kind of scam to take advantage of the masses. This is the same guy who made a bunch of videos telling people to sell all their assents and BUY SILVER. A couple years later, what do you know? HE is the guy behind Silver Bullet, Silver Shield-the mint that makes the "Freedom Girl" and "Slave Queen" silver rounds. In his videos he urged Americans to buy silver, saying that it would kill the "Bankers' Scheme". Yet, he puts his rounds up for like $15 over spot and makes the MINIMUM quantity of rounds you can buy as 20. A guy who really cares about "the masses"? I don't think so.

Oh, and the issue of "backing".
Who backs money from the Fed? The Government.
Who backs bitcoins? US. Do you think all of us (bitcoin holders) will wake up one morning and say "Oh, all of those things (bitcoins) that I have, I don't want them anymore."? TOO BIG TOO FAIL
And on the issue of intrinsic value-I believe Bitcoins have intrinsic value. It lies in their utility. The ability to spend globally, anonymously, etc.

753  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to SAFELY sell Bitcoins on eBay on: June 02, 2013, 03:25:04 AM
not a legal or illegal matter here. Let's pull out some crayons. ...

Nobody walks totally bind into the world of crypto currency. The only real reason one would buy coin useing eBay would be due to lack of ability to use liberty reserve, dowalla etc. Anyone can use PayPal.  Really you don't even need an account to use it.  Just a green dot card and internet access. So the folks that have fucked themselves away from the table and have been somehow shunned by banks,  creditors and the like really have no other choice but to use PayPal for a fuck ton of online transactions. 

Other folk like Johnny Walker know this and inflate prices and use eBay as a personal means of exchange.  For one you have to ask yourself who's the bigger scammer.  The dickwad requesting a charge back or the cum dumpster baby inflateing coin for an extra dollar.

Further with the little knowlege of price of tea going into it.  Who would want to use hard earned money they own to buy that shit?  The other big red flag is phished PayPal accounts. A charge back might not come from the dick head that actually bought the coin and dumped it within a few hours after receiveing.  More then likely it's going to be Maria Ortega. From the indian reservation who doesn't have a fucking clue what btc is to begin with.

All I'm saying is pretty clear. It isn't worth the few exra dollars in hassle.  If you want to help the newbs get some btc show them.  But show them how we get it. Work for it, sell something and show them escrow do anything else other then be a fucking dick about it. ..jus sayin
Who are you? You are spreading FUD and lacing your posts with so much profanity and just grossness that its hard to read. You think that I (a single person) can inflate the price of bitcoins? Wow, thanks for putting me on such high a pedestal! Its called making as much money as you can. You have a problem with that?

good idea, thanks for the tip. Last year I made a small 3 digits loss on ebay because of paypal chargebacks of bitcoins. Learned my lesson

It was bad even a year ago?

If PayPal is an 'eBay company', and if PayPal does not allow the sale of BitCoin, then why doesn't eBay prevent its sale? There is no restriction at all for selling BitCoin on eBay, only with using PayPal for the payment.



Any restriction on PayPal is defacto a restriction on ebay as you MUST accept PayPal as a condition of listing on ebay.  Just because ebay doesn't kill every listing within seconds doesn't mean they support it.  There are something like 20 million auctions on ebay at any particular time.  It simply isn't cost effective to monitor them all continually.

It would be like a cop stops you for speeding 75 in a 60.  You say to the cop "if speeding is illegal then why didn't someone stop me yesterday when I was speeding?  Obviously you must be incorrect and speeding is not illegal"  Smiley
100% incorrect. There are several other payment methods besides PayPal that eBay allows.
755  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to SAFELY sell Bitcoins on eBay on: June 02, 2013, 03:19:59 AM
I've heard that Paypal is freezing accts of people who sell Bitcoins on ebay.  I don't know if this is true but it makes me think twice.   Paypal doesn't like ebay because it is their competition so not surprised they would do this.
Very incorrect. eBay owns PayPal. PayPal does not allow the sale of bitcoins because of all the problems it caused (chargebacks, etc)
756  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: EDIT**: How to SAFELY sell Bitcoins on eBay on: June 02, 2013, 03:15:23 AM
I Have a question, I have been doing screen recording when I am paying someone with bitcoins, do you think that is a good proof? My Second question is I see this last ebay guy who was bad reputation for charge backs with paypal and buying bitcoins, can i refuse to sell him the bitcoin?

Not trolling or anything but didn't you read the OP.  He got his account limited for selling bitcoin.  Along with my pleas to the noobs to not risk it and others as well. Please heed the warning.  No safe way exists to sell btc on eBay.
Actually, that is incorrect. It is possible to sell bitcoins on eBay, and not do so "in secret" or by any illegitimate means. You see, it wasn't my eBay account that was suspended (sorry if I didn't make that clear), it was my PayPal account that was suspended. First of all, to answer the question of why I still had things listed on eBay is because people had bid on them, and I was going to have PayPal explain to them why they couldn't buy the item-I wasn't about to do it.

Anyways, PayPal is the accepted form of payment of 95% of eBay sellers. Why? Becayse eBay owns PayPal. So, that is the default method and it is rather difficult to change your accepted method of payment. HOWEVER, eBay allows, to name a few, credit card merchant accounts, Skrill (owned by PayPal I think) and ProPay. Yesterday I signed up for an "auction account" with ProPay. It only cost $5 (a BIG promotion...I think its like $50 usually). So, I changed my default accepted payment method to ProPay. ProPay doesn't have the restriction(s) on selling anything "Bitcoin" that PayPal does. And, it operates the same way-customers pay with major credit cards and I, the merchant, never have access to their credit card info. SO, as long as PayPal is not your accepted payment method, you can sell bitcoins on eBay (eBay does not have the restrictions-PayPal does).

To answer another question I saw, I wouldn't sell bitcoins electronically no matter what. A screen shot doesn't mean much in terms of evidence (you'll have people saying you manipulated it, etc). So, my "method of selling bitcoins on eBay IS safe, as long as you don't have PayPal set as your method of accepted payment.

I listed an item as soon as my registration with ProPay was completed yesterday. Take that and go **** yourself, PayPal.

A while ago I found a site (there are a lot) that allowed you to design your own personal license plate frame. I went with the site I did because they had the options to choose plastic, different colors, different shapes, and high-quality chrome frames. It cost me over $30 to buy what you see below. I only had it on my car for like a week. I replaced it with an "alumni" plate from my alma matter I got as a graduation gift. This is such a nice frame, somebody has to want to rock it. Its not some obnoxious bumper sticker. Its representing bitcoins...with class. I'm only asking $10 for it, plus $5 for shipping (I'll probably just stick it in one of those priority big padded envelopes. PM if interested.
