Hey everyone, ENDED - ENDED - ENDED

I want to buy about 500 BTC or so, but don't want to mess with MtGox at the moment.
I'm willing to pay a slightly above market rate for the convenience.  Looking for offers,
either fixed price or in terms of MtGoxLast +x%.  This message is inviting an offer,
rather than an offer itself.

I am able and willing to pay any of the following ways: wire transfer (USD to US bank
account), mailed/overnighted US personal check, or gold coins (below).

This is how I anticipate doing the deal: if I accept your offer, I will compose and sign an
agreement to pay as agreed, which will include the bitcoin address for you to pay, as well
as a PGP and/or Adobe PDF digital signature (your choice).  You send BTC, and then I
deliver as agreed.  I am accustomed to doing deals like this and it has been successful
for me in the past.

You are paying first, but holding a legally enforceable agreement that is pretty generous
to you if I were to default.  Here is a sample agreement to pay: (note this is if I were selling
BTC, but I am actually looking to buy BTC... so any actual agreement shall be modified
accordingly)
https://casascius.com/AgreementToDeliverBitcoins.pdf

I'm willing to pay the wire/overnight fees to someone willing to sell me all 500 BTC at once.
I'm willing to entertain multiple offers of at least 100 BTC but ask that you either accept a
mailed personal check, or cover the cost of the wire or overnight if you desire it.
Or the shipping on the gold coins.

I have some Austrian Philharmonic 1oz coins I am willing to part with, they are brand
new in four mint tubes of 10.  They are 2009 year.  I would be willing to sell these for
gold spot against MtGoxLast.  I'm still paying you a premium, but in this case, the
premium on the coins above gold spot value is what you are getting.  If you're able to
satisfy my entire desire to buy bitcoins today, I will pay for insured Registered Mail
shipping to any US address.

Please feel free to make your nonbinding offer in the thread, and to put an expiration
time on your offer if you wish.  It's possible I might accept more than one.  I don't
consider any deal done or committed until the moment you send BTC to an address
I have signed in a valid unexpired agreement to deliver.

Thanks in advance.  Those of you who recognize the value of buying (or selling) BTC
this way, feel free to copy any part of my post and/or anything you see me doing that
works for your own future deals.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable.  I never believe them.  If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins.  I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion.  Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice.  Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

Successfully bought about 80% of what I was looking for, now looking only for 100 BTC.
