I think it doesn't really matter much.
You received the coins, so for casascius everything is settled. I suppose he will not take responsability for a lost package when you send them out.
...
edit: I think I'll need to buy an pair of gloves. I have the bad habit of touching my silver. But I want to keep this silver bitcoin in mint condition Smiley

You're probably right. I'll send him an e-mail tomorrow and ask him to fund the coins. There will be some insurance for all posting services.

I haven't paid anything yet, the package was delivered straight to my desk. However, FedEx seem to have the habit of sending customs clearance invoices a few days later, especially when delivery address is a business one (which it was in this case). Had this happen to me once before. So let's see in a few days time.

The parcel was valued at $520 which is $20 per ozt. VAT at 20% should come to $104 or $4 / 0.04BTC per ozt. Even if FedEx charge 5% customs clearance fee (like somebody mentioned to me in a PM), that would only add $26 or exactly $1 per ozt Smiley

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

ok, so let's wait...

I'm happy as long as they don't charge VAT on the BTC value Tongue

did you already asked to fund them?

there is in fact a reason why waiting could be usefull:

I will create a 'certificate' for this coin (like molecular does by scanning them, SHA the file and send a small transaction to the linked adress) to proof the existence of the coin at a certain date.
This was originally usefull to show it's not a counterfit.

But recently, the casacius tamper proof seal has been hacked (not yet the silver one, but maybe it's possible in the future)
When I can do the scan before the coin is funded, I can garantee an owner in the future that this coin is legit and not tampered with (when you tamper with a coin, it's almost impossible to leave no mark at all. But it's only possible if you compare the coin to a high resolution scan)

All coins (apart from one shipment that I was asked to delay) were sent on Thursday. I was unfortunately very busy on Wednesday and missed the postman...

They will arrive in the UK by 1pm (I used Special Delivery). They should arrive in Europe within 3-5 days and 5-7 in the US.

Thank you everybody for trusting in me! I would much appreciate if you could leave a Trust rating once you receive your coin(s).
