Hello everyone. This is my first time attempting to host a group anything, so please let me know if there is anything I can improve on.

Here's the deal:

Buying BTC0.5 Casascius coins, individually is ridiculously expensive. (Over 1 BTC's worth on ebay!) So I thought I'd set up a group buy for anyone who wishes to participate.

The total cost for a roll of 50 and shipped to the USA is: BTC38.37

The cost per coin is: BTC0.7674   (38.37 / 50 = 0.7674)

I wish to keep 5 coins for myself, so therefore there are 45 coins available to reserve.

The TOTAL COST for an order is as follows:

(#of coins) * (BTC0.7674) + (BTC0.05)

For example: 1 coin shipped within the US is BTC0.8174
For example: 3 coins shipped within the US is BTC2.3522

The addition of the 0.05 is to compensate me for shipping to you (within the US) and my time. Orders outside of the US have more expensive shipping of course, so please comment below, stating your country to request a shipping quote.


Here's the Breakdown of people that have already contributed to the group buy:


1. Me for 5 coins
2. 001sonkit for 2 coins




Everyone, please ask questions!!! I'm sure I've left something out that needs to be addressed!!

Depends on how many coins you wish to purchase. For 1 coin shipping is BTC0.065.

For more coins the package gets heavier and therefore more expensive to ship. Not by much per coin, (Probably around BTC0.005 extra per coin) but enough to increase the shipping charges.

That sounds about right. Just curious how did you test this with BitcoinLabels.com?

I went to the site, and it requires that I put in a whole address for the recipient, not just a country.

Is there a way to get a quote from them with just knowing the destination country?

Hmm, when I do that it comes up with an error. Says "No data received".

Either way that shipping price sounds right so I will honor it if it is more expensive, and I will discount it should it turn out to be less expensive.

I'm not trying to cheat anyone on shipping. That's one of my pet peeves....  Sad
