That's what I figured. Lame.
The only way I could have gotten some ASICMINER would have been to use GBLSE and go through all the associated drama/FUD/waiting. Double Lame.
Well there's definitely an intention that they'll be listed on a private exchange before the first dividends are paid on them. So you have three ways to trade at present depending on what level of trust the two parties have in one another:
1. Noone sends anything now, but both commit to the trade later.
2. Buyer sends cash now, seller promises to transfer the shares as soon as they're tradable.
3. Seller promises to transfer shares soon as they're tradable, Buyer lodges cash with an escrow (that both accept).
I'd guess namworld would want #2 unless the price being paid was ridiculously high - as he has a good reputation and the only advantage of selling now is either to get a very high price OR to get use of the cash now. Cash right now CAN be worth a lot more than cash in a few weeks time.
