Maybe for future reference bidders can do a drag and drop format

like the bid

• amount @
• BTC

then have [your_name_here] @

• BTC

Maybe for future reference bidders can do a drag and drop format

like the bid x amount @ x BTC
then have [your_name_here] @ x BTC

That's the format I meant to say.

Whats your point? Afraid of competition or preorder issue?

Places all the risk of fluctuations in the btc exchange rate onto the customer (which imo is shameful) and given the art is already done I cannot understand the 3 month preorder. I'm surprised the regular people who make an issue of these types of things are oddly nowhere to be found.

The exchange rate risk shouldn't be a major problem unless you're buying with fiat. For the auctions we're only accepting Bitcoin. As for the production process, the coins are a bit more complicated to make than our other coins. The coin die is carved partially by hand thus the coin is getting special attention and also it's different size and different material than our previous coins.

Most importantly we're prioritizing the Custom Value coin because it is more important for the Christmas gift market. Also we would rather like to under promise and over deliver than the other way around. This means that if everything goes smoothly, we may be shipping these coins in December. So January is meant to be a safe bet.

OP...why does it cost 60 Euro ($66) to ship one small unfunded coin to the US?  If I recall, your previous shipments were sent in a letter.

I can ship USPS Express Mail to Europe for around $40 and maybe something like $16 for Priority Mail.  Even less for a first class small package.

I'd like to cancel my previous bid due to the shipping cost.

If your keeping shipping as stated, I think a US based group buy will be in order.

This is a problematic issue that we have been trying to solve. First of all the Finnish post does not allow sending silver products to some countries. US is one of them. We're forced to use other shipping methods which are more expensive. Overall the product is not comparable to the brass products as their value is significantly lower. We're expecting the price for these coins to be significantly higher thus we can't just send them with the cheapest possible method - risks & potential losses are higher. It's a difficult issue but we're doing our best to solve it.

The funded / unfunded doesn't matter as all coins are shipped as unfunded. It's just that the coin value alone will be quite significantly higher and the material is also a challenge in this sense. And well, shipping from Finland is also fairly expensive in general.

We're quite open to any kind of combined shipping options for US orders if I can get verifications from the buyers who want to combine the shipping.

We will continue to explore the US shipping options and it also matters quite a bit how valuable these coins are, which we are trying to find out with these auctions. The value matters when choosing the shipping option, more valuable requires safer shipping.

Here is a list of all Finish shipping costs: http://www.posti.fi/liitteet/hinnatjamaksutavat/hinnastot/kateispalv-hinnasto-en.pdf

@OP, why don't you send the coins in a bubble envelop? That way you pay letter costs instead of parcel costs.

The 1 BTC silver coin is in the Posti forbidden list for US shipping. This is why we've calculated the US shipping for this coin using UPS.

What about shipping to Holland? I'm really interested in your coin but paying 20+ euro for shipping is a little much.

I was not aware that sending say a brass coin is fine, but sending a silver one all of a sudden opens up problems.  Very interesting.  Since I don't know who will end up buying these, I guess I cant rely on other US bidders in the auction to split the cost of shipping right now.

Perhaps I'll have to organize or get in a US group buy for these coins once they're for sale on your site or grouping all 3 auctions together.

Its a shame to have to send a letter sized $6-$8 item via UPS to the U.S. and have to pay $66 for shipping, just because its made of silver.

Anyways, thank you for the further clarification.

At this time, I still need to cancel my bid due to the shipping.

[ezeminer]

If someone does a US group shipment, and buyers split the cost...

I couldn't see why we would all pay 66 euros each, when we could split up costs to be smaller.



If anyone wants I wouldn't mind handling a US group shipment.
