Selling one contract for call options on 100 BTC at 150 USD---nearly a $50 intrinsic value! Expiry date July 24. Premium 72 USD (payable through Mt Gox).

I do not have 100 BTC on hand, but do have options on 100 BTC that I can call if necessary.

This offer expires in thirty minutes---who knows how the market will have moved by then?

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.

Mt Gox if you've got it. ACH otherwise. Or PayPal if you're willing to send it as a "gift" or some other method with no fees. (If you charge back I just won't honor the options.) Post here to claim.

Extending this offer another thirty minutes.

I can confirm SunAvatar has options available he purchased from me.  The coins are sitting in clearcoin right now.  Not sure if you want to but feel free to show the status page on the 100 coins might help.

Names do not matter; however, if you insist...id...

Yeah, things have dropped again, but I'm not totally sure they'll stay down. I'd like to see if things move up again, but I can't sit here all night, so I'll revise down to 61 USD for now and leave the offer open until midnight, my time (4:00 UTC).

I consider the offer binding, so please consider your acceptance binding as well.
