You're bidding on exactly the coin shown in the photos. It will be sent inside the coin capsule shown.
PaymentNo escrow. I will PM you with a payment address ending in KWxK3dmqDo.
ShippingFree shipping and insurance worldwide. I will use Japan Post's EMS. This involves some basic tracking which I will provide to you. According to the post office it will take from 4-7 business days.
If tracking service of Postal service says: "received" or "could not be delivered, needs to be picked up" or similar, it's on you: the coin is considered to be delivered at that point. In case of trouble/dispute I am allowed to publicize the tracking number. On request, I will publicize the tracking number here in the thread. Upon receiving the coin, it would be nice if you posted that fact here.
