Thankn Hhampuz. Yes keen to get the Copper membership too. I couldn't see any link in the profile area too it. Previously I've only bought coins from manufacturer sites and Ebay. But bitcointalk seems to be where the real gems are listed and new/limited release coins. So I plan to spend a bit of time on here.
Good auction been a while since we had a rippin' good one. You can find information from Theymos on Copper Membership
here.
Don't forget to check out Kialara website and get on his mailing list. When Max introduces a new piece it usually sells out in a day, two at most. Benefit is you can pay with Paypal. Kialaras have greatly increased in value, but if they don't float your boat appreciation is secondary. I only collect what I really like. I just happen to really like Kialaras, while Casascius are not my thing.
