Escrow service available? Why you do not sell them on bitmit.net?

Maybe because bitmit is bitcoin exclusive? Smoothie accepts both BTC and LTC, so bitmit wouldn't be able to accommodate that.

People can speculate all they want. It is simple: I have never scammed anyone on this forum nor any forum. Nor do I ever intend to. Your personal information is not for me. It is for the security of your order being delivered. If I dont have registered mail in place then your package goes lost, then there is another thing to cry about. I figured the best bet is to do what Mike does (Casascius), require registered mail so there is no funny business in the shipment process. Then once the package is confirmed I then fund the coins. Simple really. Registered Mail™ Get maximum security for your valuable items. Registered Mail items can be insured for up to $25,000 at your Post Office. Notes Purchase online, at your Post Office, or through your Rural Carrier. Registered Mail articles must be presented to a Postal employee for mailing. Priority Mail First-Class Mail Restricted Delivery Return Receipt COD USPS Tracking Signature Confirmation From $11.20stop bitching about the shipping guys...

Beautiful coins smoothie. I would be interested in picking up 2, shipped to Germany.
Just a few questions:
For those of us that live in Europe we have to pay a VAT Tax (I think like 20%). It doesn't make sense to pay a tax on a currency. Also, the customs VAT Tax includes shipping in its calculation, a double whammy. Would it be possible to have the receipt made out for the value of the coin without the LTC or could we have the option of self funding the coin ourselves ?
I've ordered silver coins from America before and you can definitely find shipping to Europe, insured, for pretty cheap. I just checked on Ebay.com (you can quickly verify) and found this: Using USPS 1/2 ounce silver coins ship at $7.00 - $10.00 to Germany. (And many actually have free shipping).
It seems like you have a price of 28 and 25 LTC listed on the first page. Is the 2nd on the latest?
Thanks, IAS

Damn, smoothie. I remember finding and watching your 50 more bitcoins video back in 2011 when I was doing my formative readings on Bitcoin. Oh yeah? That was a while ago when GPU mining bitcoin was still a "solo-able" thing to do with a pair of 6990's. May/June 2011. Good times.

For this batch I have not enabled any escrow service. I have not setup any reseller vendors yet. I intend to do this ASAP as to allow my coins to reach as far across the globe as possible. The idea of limiting 2 coins per user would not work well with a reseller because I could not know for sure that only two coins were being sent to each user. The coin cap was to make it fair for everyone interested to purchase a few of my first batch of coins.

I will believe it when people receive them smoothie you gotta jack up the price for the second batch then... I will look at the demand and gauge it there. So far the demand has been quite high. My view is to only expand and ramp up more production in the coming weeks and months. Stay tuned.

Yes I will only be declaring the coin value. The coins will be unfunded until they are confirmed to have been received. No LTC value will be declared given that the LTC will not be in the coin anyway. Concerning price the 28 LTC price is most current given the recent fluctuations in price of LTC and BTC.

If the coin is pre-funded and somehow gets lost in the mail, there is a risk that someone else now has access to the private key. A replacement would require shipping a new coin and funding an additional wallet address.

This is a big reason why I have decided to wait these out. I feel that LTC has scope to rise by a good margin, so im going to keep my LTCs unspent.
