casascius 2013 brass 0.5 and 1.0 individuals and sealed rolls

[kimosan]

bump

considering a "group buy" for the rolls where buyers would give an up front deposit (say 0.05 BTC) and a return address

set a time a few months in the future as an end date OR when say >=75% of the coins have a deposit on them to open the roll

give everyone with a deposit a month to pay the full amount or lose their deposit



it's one way i see to sell individual coins without breaking a roll just to sell a few coins

Interested!

Also interested.

So you're selling the coins individually? If I wanted five I could get five?...for the right price of course.

i've been all along. thread was started Dec 20, 2012 and i just now ran out of non rolled coins 

thanks for the feedback everyone! obvious demand is obvious

i'll work out the details tomorrow and get them posted

[Possum577]

Ah, thanks for the update. Are you planning to sell any unrolled coins? I'm bummed I missed out on this one.

Obvious demand should be obvious...congrats on your successful sales.

Hello

Thanks for the update.

Just wondering: why this coin has been funded twice?

https://blockchain.info/fr/address/12CDrJVn55VrCe7fByxGXpyNoYsfuQkdxd

Also, why did you decide to break two rolls (out of the four)? According to your rates,
it would have been more interested for you to sell the four rolls intact. Did i miss
something?

Still interested though.

Can you please provide me your bitcoin address in order to book the coins. Thanks

looks like someone sent "satoshi's" ie  0.00000001 BTC to some of these coins

honestly no idea why that is done but I have often gotten micro deposits to addresses that i have coins on

i would love to sell the rolls intact (think of how much less work that would be!!) but the market of people with 45-70 BTC to spend is much smaller then the market of people willing to spend 0.8-1.3 and up

i'll be messaging to find out which coins you are looking to reserve and if you want to use escrow or direct

PM'd you an PsychoticBoy, ordered one loaded brass casascius 1 bitcoin for 1.3

[bestcoin_59]

Hello,

when deposits are held for 40 or more in a roll the roll will be opened and coins moved to individual coin cases by gloved hands

users with a deposit will then have 1 month to complete their payment either to escrow or direct and provide shipping details or their deposit will be forfeited unless a replacement buyer can be located

So if i understand well, it is impossible to get a picture of the coins before buying

thanks! i've you got you on my local spreadsheet i will update the first posts list (with many details striped from my spreadsheet) later in the day

Hello,
So if i understand well, it is impossible to get a picture of the coins before buying

the first post of the thread has two pdf files that casascius signed that image all 50 coins per roll just before he sealed them - i intend to open the rolls and move them to individual coin cases by gloved hands when they are ready to ship so the coins will be as they left casascius

i would not ship a coin that differed from what is visible in those pictures

[Josepht]

I'm interested in buying one.

Does anyone know if there is any VAT/additional costs with shipping to the Netherlands?

[camolist]

I ship from the US so anyone elsewhere i will have to fill out customs forms

the custom forms ask for a description and USD value

I've always written the USD value of the BTC charged over face value minus shipping cost

so in this case 0.3 BTC * ~$250 USD = ~$75 - the shipping cost

and brass collectable coin as the contents

have never had trouble but I am unsure about any extra costs you will have to take the above and research your individual country

bump!

5 and 10 per roll sold

[Josepht]

Just wanting to make some things clear:

1. I sent the 0.1 BTC to you, which means I am on the list.
2. We wait until 40 people are on the list.
3. You open the roll and ask everyone to pay the additional 1.2 BTC (to an escrow)
4. You ship the coins to my address that I'll PM you.
5. When I received the coin, I tell the escrow that he can release the BTC to you.

Is that right?
Another question: if I decide that I don't want to buy the coin anymore; will you send my 0.1 back?

it's all correct

the 0.1 can also be held at escrow if you would like.

the 0.1 deposit can be refunded at any time prior to the rolls being opened when 40 coins are sold

There's a thought that Casascius coins are most valuable when they have ONLY the original BTC1 from Mike funded on the coin. People will send 1 satoshi to random coins in an effort to "vandalize" the coin or devalue that specific coin. I think peopled do it out of jealousy. This is just a theory, I've never seen this characteristic impact or prevent a sale.

[Possum577]

Thanks for the detail, love the system except for one detail...

What if you never get 40 coins reserved? Will I ever get the coins I reserve with the deposit (hypothetically)? I'm putting money at risk on an order that I never know will be fulfilled.

Also, what does the "any" designation mean? Is that a reservation where someone has not specifically requested a specific coin in the roll?

Thanks.

any point until 40 are reserved and i open the rolls your deposit can be returned "at any point up until 40 in the roll have deposits made for them you may request a refund of your deposit and the spot will be opened up to another potential buyer" from the first post

Thanks.

exactly that. i have deposits held for those coins but have not received any specific coin request and will just send a random coin unless they send a list of requests

[snarlpill]

Have to post to bookmark this thread & watch the progress of the 40 coin rolls getting reserved/sold.
Somewhat sadly, I believe I have physical crypto coins by every other maker except the first and undisputed King of physical Bitcoins, Casascius. I will most likely be making a deposit on a coin soon and working on changing that.
