shopping frenzy anyone? promo is about to end. more or less when I finish cooking (90 minutes from now) the .80 / .60 offer expires.

anyway even after the return to regular prices I should be highly competitive in the 100 trillion Z$ 'market', we're talking about 10 cents per banknote.

Arrived very fast, good seller.

Can't say if the notes are genuine due to a general lack of security features (such as watermark) & low quality paper,
but I will assume they are. I only have smaller denominations to compare against.

Though I don't think the central bank cares much about counterfeiting at this point.

Is that a real security thread I see, or is it just printed on?

It is a 'security thread' lol

I'm happy to report that my bills showed up safe and sound.

One package arrived safe and sound ...

I'm glad that it works well so far.

BTW, the one I had you send as a joke went over exactly as intended ... she got an anonymous package properly addressed ...

You did not mention any personal note to be attached so I just packed the bill and sent it ; )

I use to write from: address on the envelopes in most cases but that day 5 letters went out and I'm a bit lazy when it comes to hand writing.
If the notes really take off, I might buy me a label printer or a stamp with my address at least.

anyway. fresh notes came in, exchange is reopened. thanks to the competition, I can rise prices again.

1st note ~~1.00~~ 0.95 btc, additional notes .65 btc each

One package arrived safe and sound, and I am sure the second will be here tomorrow. It's a couple thousand miles further than that one... Thanks binford!

BTW, the one I had you send as a joke went over exactly as intended. I got a call from my mom (all worried) telling me about how she got an anonymous package properly addressed to her and my dad, from Luxemborg no less, containing a $100,000,000,000,000z$ bill. She thought the dethroned Prince of Nigeria was after them or something.

lol

Regarding the quality, status, I just wanted to mention that I ordered a complete set of these bills from a different source. From $1 to $100 Trillion. It looks like they switched to the printed on "security thread" once they hit 500 Million. I've heard reports of people counter-fitting the 100 Trillion dollar bills, but never the complete set. All the bills above 200 Million in my other set have the reflective but not embedded thread, paper seems to be the same quality, etc.

Thanks binford.

It doesn't feel real. It does reflect a small amount of light though so it's not printed.
Then again the issuer probably didn't care much since they knew these would be virtually worthless.

You could easily make these yourself, no watermarks & paper feels as if from a standard inkjet.
There are no grooves, embossings or raised letters on the note either.

Can I buy a note, and a few stamps as well?

Sure. The post stamps are issued by the Luxembourg post & telecom company and are valid for international letters sent from Luxembourg. not sure if you can use them but you can have some. They are 30 bit cents each (20 cents post stamp 10 cents for the custom image). Just PM me the numbers you want.

I will post the pictures hopefully tomorrow.

PM sent!

I will take one, I can send the BTC first. PM'ed details.

Do you also have the bigger 500 trillion dollar notes?

AFAIK the 100 trillion is the highest value used for the Z$ notes, this is the third Z$ (ZWR) and was in circulation in February 2009 (despite the print date on banknote stating 2008). We are talking 14 zeros here. the nearest smaller banknote would be 50 trillion, higher are IMO fake or do not exist. the second Z$ (valid until July 2008) made it to 100 billion z$ highest value (in 3 years). the first Z$ lasted some 25+ years but eventually also ended with 10 zeros attached.

as for the PM, noted & replied.
edited (added bits of info on 1st and 2nd z$)

How much is shipping?

shipping already included in the price for 1st banknote
(.60 btc is the total price for one z$ 100 trillion note, two would cost 1 btc, three 1.4 etc.)
