Same guy ? Issaquah, Washington again.

Looks like stock photos to me .... may be wrong, but sure some are lifted from elsewhere

At least its priced so high that noone could get scammed.

Whoever the seller is is a fuckin' amateur.

Here's the real deal - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Casascius-5BTC-Series-1-coin-fully-loaded-w-CoA-and-coin-capsule-not-Lealana-/221836951357?hash=item33a6833f3d

It's been pretty consistently up for sale for over 18 months. What the hell is wrong with people? Don't they recognise a bargain when they see it?

Wow thanks.  Now I can finally get a nickle at a decent price.  As a matter of fact we should message him about the now "bargain" 25 bitcoin.   Cheesy

Lol, I found that listing a while ago. Offered to sell him one for half what he was asking and he flat declined. Not even a counter offer. Clearly sucker-hunting

Isn't gold immune to fingerprints? Fingerprints cause corrosion on other metals, but not gold, right?

24k gold does not tarnish.

Coin dealers do the same thing on the edges...I also have handled coins that way. Just wash your hands before touching them and it does not leave any marks.
^^^ Yep... the majority of coin graders will also use their fingers and not cotton gloves.

Cotton gloves, while keeping the oils away from coins, also happen to reduce tactile feel and increase the risk of dropping the coin or fumbling around with it more.  Experienced handlers, such as graders and most coin professionals, will pick up and hold coins from the edges.  If properly done, there is no worse for wear and no oils will get onto the coin, and no fingerprints will be left in the main fields.

I prefer finger cots http://www.amazon.com/Protective-Latex-Tissue-Finger-Medium/dp/B003VPYPJ8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1439237613&sr=8-8&keywords=finger+cots as they protect the coin from oil and debris while maintaining grip and tactile feel with your fingertips.

Now, back on topic...

LOL no way I am using condoms on my fingers for a coin. Anyone who bought a coin from me probably had the sides touched as I removed from air tites and placed into mylar flips for grading  Kiss

Hello-
I know someone was looking for a 25BTC Casascius.
This one is loaded.   Smiley

http://www.ebay.com/itm/291536110793

Thanks

lol only 56BTC...such a bargain  Roll Eyes

Is he willing to sell it for BTC at a reasonable price? Say 26.5?
eBay seems to be full of suckers and market prices on eBay is much less transparent then it is on here because of how easy it is to shill bid on your own auctions.
