This won't work.

If you actually have the coin and want to sell it, arrange to do an auction here with a well known escrow such as minerjones.

OP should peel and claim the btc himself - auction carcass. Zero % chance I’m shipping 90k anywhere

these are the times where a courier and escrow should be used. he has deleted the listing anyways.

  Yep agree, a personal crypto courier is the way to go or thru MJ for sure.

  Not sure why we are calling Cas coins carcasses all of a sudden, but let them keep on peeling...makes the loaded ones more rarer

This made me laugh out loud, as I've never thought of it till now TBH..

And yes, keep peeling 'em boys - Where did the ebay listing go?

  Looks like it was pulled.....Either ebay or the seller. Insane low price at that. Smelled like a scam regardless.

this coin as reappeared on ebay

wonder if the seller is still the OP or not. Looks like still in Saudi Arabia.

[Rymaster]

It’ll be interesting to see how it ends.

Could potentially be a steal for anyone local in Saudi Arabia that is able to arrange a local meetup before clicking “pay”. Although if it goes well under current BTC price, doubtful the seller would even show up. My eBay app from the US won’t even allow me to bid on it.

Fun fact: This coin was first listed on Ebay in August 2017 for $8100....  same seller, same location!!

I don’t know what this guy is trying to do. Could it be a scam? Is he going to send a peeled coin or something else? I trust eBay’s buyer protection, so none of this makes any sense to me.

if you paid for a "loaded" coin and he sent a peeled one - you would not be protected by eBay's buyer protection policy - just like shipping companies - they do not cover loss of digital assets. iirc it is actually against eBay's policy to sell loaded items.

and if this coin has been on eBay twice by the same seller in prior years and this is now the 3rd time - why has it not sold? why have the auctions been ended? bids not to his satisfaction?

I mean he could always sell it on the forums direct and use escrow - for this value of a coin, the escrow could simply travel there and pick it up and bring it back.

Exactly. I don't think he knows about the forum, or honestly, I'm not sure. It's strange, and I'm curious to see how far this can go.

Auction ended by seller... ?

Theres another one on ebay with starting bid for 90k..

Yes... once again, not a serious seller.

And yes there is, but that is an all silver one, not gilt
The starting bid of $90k is decent for current pricing at 1.15BTC

I think he was serious on selling it. The coin was redeemed 12 hours ago.
