Will make offer if you can give a reason to trust you.  Ebay account or the like.

He's taking PayPal, so if he fails to ship it, PayPal has you covered, right?

... Unfortunately they're not an option for US based customers. ...

Exactly, which is why I'm excited about BTC Sports Betting.  Smiley

Paid already!  Sweet!  I'll be back in ASAP.  I like that you upped the max to 1, also.

I'm sure they are.  But see ssaCEO's activity in this thread: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=30261.0  for an example of good communication.  Now THAT's engaging with the community.

Site is overloaded =(

We are all so eager to get in at the beginning!  Smiley

I signed up for an invite from them a few days ago.  They said they'd get back to me in 48 hours, they did not.  They've not replied to my question about that time lag in the thread they started.  BTCSports has a total of 11 posts.  They seem pretty AFK for a company that's trying to engage the BTC community.

just wondering
when do you get your expected payout?
Instantly, it's automated.
ye but whats the condition for it?

You are playing a game and you don't know how it works?  Crazy.

OK, it seems mean to make fun of you, then not answer your question.  You're not the first person confused on this game works.  See my answer to this same question in the thread for the 2nd round of this same game: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=25118.msg329409#msg329409

I wasn't really thinking clearly.  All the major retailers (Amazon, etc) take payment when the order is shipped, not when the order is placed.  It's really better that way. 

Sorry about that.
590  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] - laser engraved bitcoin cards [preorder] on: July 22, 2011, 07:22:38 AM
Good  Cheesy

We have reached the minum for the order. I hope to obtain some little discount from the supplier
Who is interested can PM me the bitcoin address that want to be engraved on as well as the mail address to which I've to delivery the cards. As soon as the cards are ready I'll send you back a picture of the cards with the BTC total so you can make the payment.
The cards will be ready for the shipment from 23-24 August (there are 3 weeks of summer holiday from next week).

I'd like to pay now.  Ordering now and paying in BTC in August is like you short-selling BTC.
591  Economy / Goods / Re: Bitcoin Stickers on: July 22, 2011, 06:50:39 AM
Launch the website.  Then I will buy.

if you are into Formula 1 racing, keep an eye on http://usgpatx.com/  I'll have T-shirts and more available for PayPal and BTC by next week.

Whatever happened with this?  It's been over 48 hours.

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=30261.0 kind of stole your thunder, but they are non-USA.  As a proud American, I demand a place to gamble!   Cheesy
594  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] - laser engraved bitcoin cards [preorder] on: July 22, 2011, 06:29:52 AM
I will buy 5.
595  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wednesday is RALLY day!!! on: July 22, 2011, 06:29:31 AM
I was in at:
5 @ 17.6
3.5 @ 14.201
4 @ 13.501

tonight I sold them and bought back in $.10 lower a few times (I have free trades at MtGox)

so, I'm all back in with 12.6 BTC

(Plus I just bought a new mining rig for $592 to get 600 MH/s)

So, it seems I'm in for the long haul in the BTC scene.

(I have a few small retail ventures, and they will all take BTC by next week)


RALLY!

What is this trying to be?  I have to register to find out?

Is it a casino?  An online wallet?  Give us a clue here.

Intersango is an exchange.  They are developing a new version of the site.
 - https://www.intersango.com

Aha.  You see, I just clicked on the link the OP provided, and was presented with a ugly html form to sign up or login and that was it.  No info.  No logo.  No explanation.

Look, I develop web software for a living.  I'm a coder, I'm not a stickler for style.  But I would NEVER say to the world "come test this" on a site like *that*
597  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Is "casual" mining still sustainable? Is buying a new rig stupid? on: July 22, 2011, 04:55:39 AM

I wouldn't recommend that much cheaper of a board.  It's pretty minimal and it's going to be taking a lot more heat punishment than normal.  If you don't want to fry your board in a year, ECS and Foxconn and all those crappy ones are out.  I'd go with an ASUS with solid capacitors across the whole board or an MSI military class II board with solid caps across the entire board.  Those can take some serious heat because they have ceramic outsides and non-liquid insides.  Basically any board you get that's worse than that one would be saving $5-10 and totally not be worth the significantly reduced lifetime.

By the way, you forgot some sort of case or case-like object, the hard drive, and at least temporary optical drive to install the OS in that build...and the OS lol.  Linux is a pain to set up and I've done it twice but who doesn't have windows XP licenses laying around?  I've got like 40 activations worth cuz I recycle and refurb and repair computers Cheesy And they haven't cared about the "non-transferrable" part of XP licenses since 2007 when they stopped selling them.


* I'm getting a case.  I have a small house and a wife, so fan noise must be minimized.  However, there are several How-Tos on this board about running caseless. I recommend MeatBall's: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=27496.0
* I plan to run off a USB drive: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=29021.0
* Writing software to run on Linux is my job since 1998, so I'm pretty comfortable with it. Smiley  I think it's WAY easier to set up than Windows, but to each his own.
* I ordered a MSI 870-G45 for $70.  Good to hear the "Military Class" components are decent.

Thanks!  Constructive criticisim is always welcome.
598  Economy / Speculation / Mt Gox Live - so much fun on: July 22, 2011, 03:54:38 AM
Watching MtGox live and seeing your own trades come through is so much fun!

"Hey, that was me!"

so cool.

You're asking if difficulty will eventually level off because "new miners will stop coming in" and you're asking if you should start mining?
Yea, that's why the difficulty is going to keep going.

I would not spend $700 on a new rig right now, unless that $700 is going to net you a minimum of 1GHash.  You should be able to get a 600Mhash rig for under $400 right now, so 1.2Ghash for $800.
I'm curious how you would build a rig for under 400 dollars and get 600 megahash. Considering the 5830 is at 130. I did a quick calc and I'm just a little higher then $400 for 600 megahash and that's before shipping.

2 x 5830s: $260
1 AMD Sempron: $40
2 GB RAM: $20
MSI 870-G45 AM3: $75
Coolmax 750W PSU:  $68
Total:  $463, Total MHash:  626 (could probably squeeze more)

So, just over $400 as you said, but also over 600 MHash.  Could probably go with a slightly cheaper MoBo.

I basically just bought that, plus a case and 2 case fans for $592 shipped from NewEgg.  $540 before tax and shipping.
