Hello everyone! Imagine if you will... You are at the market, selling your wares. You of course accept the local fiat currency, but you'd much rather receive payment in Bitcoin. So you have a little "Bitcoin Accepted Here" sign on display, and would you believe it, someone notices and wants to pay in Bitcoin! Excellent!

Now, all you have to do (since you didn't print out a qr code of your Bitcoin address for the impatient customer to scan) is one of two things:

1. Politely ask for the customers email so you can email him/her your Bitcoin address.
    a. Promise that you wont send the customer spam or anything like that.
    b. Apologize for needing any personal info at all.

-OR-

2. Politely ask to use the customers device, and input your Bitcoin Address yourself... character by god forsaken character.
    a. Promise that you wont run off with your customers device.
    b. Apologize for not having a more streamlined way of transferring the most advanced currency in the world.
    c. Sweat about the possibility of losing the customer due to the fact that this was not an easy process at all.


Now imagine a very similar scenario... You are at the market, selling your wares... Someone wants to pay in Bitcoin!

So you and your business savvy self whip out one of SilverGoldAndBitcoin's Laser Engraved Business Cards, complete with QR code linked to your Bitcoin Address! The customer is impressed, and with a tap on his phone, the address is automatically input to his Bitcoin Wallet. And just like that, before you could bat an eye, the Bitcoin shows up in your wallet! You thank the customer for his business. He replies with a "No, thank YOU for the easy-peasy-lemon-squeasy shopping experience!"

What can we learn from these scenarios? SilverGoldAndBitcoin's Laser Engraved Anodized Aluminum Business Cards are a must for in person Bitcoin transactions!

If you wish to order, please use this format in your private message:

Custom message above the QR Code Line 2: "------" (By default reads: "I accept payment in Bitcoin!")

Bitcoin Address: "------"

# of cards: 1

Color of Card: (Green, Blue, Black)

Custom Instructions:
---------

EXAMPLE ORDER FORMAT:

Mr. John Smith
123 Main St,
San Francisco CA 94063

1ADU5ggPdqzKJL7DtubvuSn8DovjRJ4xmk

Black

Please check your email for the custom image I wish engraved on the reverse.


Card Information:

Each card is 2" wide x 3.5" tall (a little bit smaller than a standard credit card)

Each card is made of sturdy anodized aluminum and will keep its image, for many years of use!

Each card is custom laser engraved by me personally, right here in California.


Cost per card:

1 card:  BTC 0.15 ea.
2 - 5 cards: BTC 0.14 ea.
6+ cards: BTC 0.13 ea.

Cost of shipping to anywhere in the USA: BTC 0.03
Cost of shipping elsewhere: Contact me for a quote
I will combine shipping on entire order. The flat rate of BTC 0.03 is applied to each order, not each card.

Cost for customer supplied image on reverse: BTC 0.03 for entire order, not per card


Examples of orders, and how much they cost:

1 card,  shipping to USA: (0.15)  +  0.03 = 0.18

2 cards, custom back, shipping to USA: (2 x 0.14)  + 0.03 + 0.03 = 0.34

7 cards, shipping to USA: (7 x 0.13) + 0.03 = 0.94

I'm sorry, but maybe you could describe what you were expecting. These are supposed to be used, not hung up on a wall and displayed as art.

Instead of just saying they look ugly, about some constructive criticism? What could help them be better?

I have had a quick try, and now understand that it can be hard just working in two colours!
The following is how I vision it. I do have nearly no graphic skills though!

Just trying to give you alternatives

As I was thinking about it, I realized that they are very bland. I will be coming up with a new design that has a bit more beauty.
