Resin Bitcoins SOLD OUT!! :D

[dodgrr]

Looks like there's been a bit of reformatting here on the board, so I'll start another thread over in this section
I'm a resin artist/nerd and I am producing actual resin bitcoins for purchase.  My first project was a limited edition run of 10 coins, embedded in clear resin.

This is what they look like:

HUGE thanks to everyone that purchased one,  I'm shocked at how fast they sold out!!  

So these are the coins for the first 10 orders:

Once completed, these will be shipped out in the order they were purchased, along with notification and tracking info to the new owners

I've honestly been stunned at the positive reaction these have gotten, and I've been asked many times now if I plan on making any more....so, here's your chance!!   This sale will be just for the coins, not embedded in clear..

The price for 4 coins, shipped in the US with tracking is 1 BTC.
(Sorry, no paypal payments available as I'd like to keep this experiment "BTC pure" haha!!)

Each coin will be sequentially numbered; the earlier you buy, the lower the numbers.  Sorry, no requests this time around, as it creates madness with lists

These will be available for a limited time.  Once the run is closed, no more of this version will be made.

I'm not sure what the best way to do the order process, so here's the plan for now: just contact me for payment info

Purchases will be shipped out in the order they were received, (I'm estimating no more than a few days from the date of purchase )
So that's my pitch...

HUGE THANKS again to everyone for the support and interest.. I'll keep this thread updated as I go, and please feel free to ask any questions, I'll do my best to answer them

I want to thank all those that have placed orders so far!!   I really appreciate the support, & I'm sure you'll all love your shiny new bitcoins

as a "thank you" to those who've already ordered, (early adopters are rewarded  ) I'll be throwing in an additional clear coin to your order for free THANK YOU!



I'll make this offer available for the first 10 purchases of loose coins, (3 have already been spoken for,) so grab 'em quick before someone else does!

7 clear coin packages left


again, huge thanks to everyone for the interest and support!

[dodgrr]

5 clear packs left!

 

[dodgrr]

4 packs left!


single coins can be also be purchased, .3 BTC shipped per coin and the next 4 orders will still get a clear "bonus" coin (numbered, & limited to 10 pieces) 


thanks again everyone!!

[nhodges]

Would I be able to reserve a set of 4 w/ the clear coin until tomorrow? :]

[dodgrr]

^ you've got mail 

clear resin bonus coin packs are SOLD OUT!!

loose coin packs will be available until midnight, tomorrow night, (Sunday, 12 AM PST,)

So if you want em, get an order in before then!!



again, HUGE THANKS to everyone who's placed an order so far, I'm casting as fast as I can!!

[nhodges]

I think I'm addicted to these things, thanks! :]

[dodgrr]

just a quick bump to let everyone that's ordered so far know: production is rolling along great, The clear block orders will all be shipped out by Wednesday at the latest, and the loose coins and packs will start shipping out tomorrow  

Again, thank you guys so much for your orders, I'm stunned at the response this project has gotten so far!!

New projects are also in the works, so keep an eye on this space for details about new stuff 


about 11 1/2 hours left to purchase, so if you want em, get your orders in now!!

[galaxyAbstractor]

Do you ship outside the US, to say, Sweden?

And aww, those clear coins looked nice, pity they are out of stock already

[dodgrr]

yep, international shipping is available for an extra .1 btc, I use standard airmail and I can send the customs number and a picture of the paper work as proof of shipment, unfortunately tracking an international package gets really pricy.  Message me for a quote on cost if you'd really like to add tracking and I can figure out how much more it will be

[galaxyAbstractor]

oh wait, the coins are actually inside something, and not separate?

I usually like to have a lot of stuff on my desk at the computer which I sit and kind of, uh, play with when I'm bored or watching something, usually coins or a small swiss multi-tool knife, and these coins looked as something interesting to have on the desk

[dodgrr]

hah  sorry for the confusion.. the first resin bitcoin project I sold here (sold out,) was a coin suspended in clear resin.. this one:



The currently available resin coins are not embedded in anything, just the naked bitcoin tokens




thanks again for all the orders, about 9 hours left to this sale!!

[nhodges]

So, when do I get to see how you make these bad boys?

[dodgrr]

I've taken some pics of the process, I'll post them tonight..  I'm hoping to do a little video as well but it may be a day or two before I'll get a chance to do any editing

just 2 hours to go

[csshih]

I'll be sure to post lots of pics when I get them!

[dodgrr]

^ please do!!

ok, quick photo update of the process...

HUGE THANKS to everyone for the orders!!

[dodgrr]

OK, the sale has come to a massively succesful end 


I can't thank you all enough for the support!!

updates will be posted in this thread and tracking numbers will be sent out as soon as they're on the way to their new homes!

[nhodges]

Congrats, it seems you made about $300 this week! :]

[Delicious]

pretty neat, I must say. Kudos. 

[dodgrr]

ok, so OCD has kicked in.. the clear cast pieces are taking a bit longer than I'd hoped, but the production is rolling along.. I'd rather they all get the attention they deserve, rather than rushing to get them out.  So, thanks for the patience everyone, I really hope you all love these things

anyway, couple progress pics while you're waiting:







huge thanks again everyone!!
