We do NOT support orders outside the USA if paying via Bitcoin or Dwolla.

I'm guessing this is due to the domestic shipping cost being "baked in" to the cost of the product when paying via Bitcoin or Dwolla. Is that right? Why not separate it out for international orders? Or just, y'know, separate it out all the way? Is it because you don't have a system that can handle different shipping rates on each order?

Sorry, it just seems funny that you don't accept bitcoins for international orders since that's probably where Bitcoin shines brightest.

Yes, I don't have a good shopping cart system to handle all this. This has been rather frustrating. If you know of a good free shopping cart that supports Bitcoin payment, let me know.

We now support international orders using any payment method you like :-)
There's BitWillit.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

BitWillit looks like a good service. What I'm looking for is shopping cart code that supports Bitcoins, Dwolla, & Paypal.

Just got my 3 bitcoins in the mail today.

They look awesome!

Do you do laser engraving for the serial number?

Just curious, how did you design and come up with the molding for the coins for a reasonable price?  I thought striking a new coin was 10s of thousands of dollars or more.

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback. You got them quick.

Yes, they are laser etched serial numbers. I'm worried they may wear off. Time will tell.

I can't tell you my secrets  Lips sealed. Manufacturing a new coin can be expensive. I've streamlined it a bit and cut out some of the costs.

I just ordered 3 of them to EUROPE. Hope they will ship soon!

Ironically, I had to buy them using PayPal, not Bitcoins. The price in Bitcoins was too expensive compared to current conversion rate between BTC and USD. Also, selecting 3 pieces was trivial in PayPal, but not in the Bitcoin payment window.

We definitely need simple and usable payment gate for Bitcoins!

Thanks for all the feedback from those who have received their coins so far. Hopefully this removes some of the doubt and suspicion some have had.

These look so cool!  Well done Smiley

I think I might buy some to give away as bonuses on freebitcoins.org!

I do echo others' comments, though, about being careful with the wording on your site.  Other than one line on the FAQ page, you really make it sound like they are real bitcoins.

In addition to the FAQ, on the Buy page I do say this:
"These Bitcoin coins do not represent digital Bitcoins. They have no Bitcoin face value."

However, I'll do something to make it more clear.

Thanks.

I'm glad you ask this question. Yes I have considered it.

Who all would be interested in a one troy ounce .999 high quality silver round? If so how much over the silver spot price would you be willing to pay for it?

Also, the silver coin would not have the unique serial number on the back.
