I am definitely interested in the one that is still intact. I will Pm you the offer soon.

EDIT: I'll go ahead and beat Michail1 offer. 500btc + 5k USD for the intact bar.

I will not raise my offer in this thread. I am interested in the bar though and willing to discuss price directly.
Mike, you have my email address and phone number.

Mike, notify me if Michail1 outbids me or if anyone else does.

Also Michail1 said once he buys it that he wants it shipped to me as a gift (late Xmas gift).

Well, I thought it would have happened faster, but scammer already trying.

Take note that he is quoting another account which appears to have been registered 1.5 years ago with zero posts. Probably his account as well.

This scammer is also fake quoting OgNasty.

Hi charles_chad,

Thank you for the offer but for a trade this size I would only feel comfortable trading with a well known and trusted forum member.

I am interested in the bar.

Since no one has made an offer and this isn't an auction, I will just low ball to get a number started other than simply saying I am interested....
I offer BTC + $2k

(A bump to the thread to get notifications since I rarely come to BCT)

First thing Michail1 is to thank you for a strong and generous offer. This will go a long way to help the family get straight after their recent and unexpected loss.

Bitcoin + $2k = 505BTC

I dropped OgNasty a pm for Escrow to keep everything above board and impartial -

Hi casascius,

It would be an honor to act as Escrow for this trade and please pass my condolences on to the family.

You guys know the Escrow routine so I wont go in to all the details.

Please use the Escrow address in the first post of my main Escrow thread on the forum :

Kind regards,

OgNasty

So sorry for the loss of your friend, Mike. Hopefully the family is able to raise a significant amount of funds with this bar and I would love to help. I have sent an offer via PM.

Mike - This place is not great for this type of sales anymore - I would suggest Reddit or even Twitter

At lease you have Michail1 here at a base bidder

Good Ole Bay trying to turn a buck some things never change -

The one pictured in my thread is Chainsaws.

I had it listed a long time ago for 1000 BTC because he felt more comfortable having me assess it's value + with that high of a listing. I tend to be fairly confident asking high prices for rare items and catching shit over it

.

He will entertain offers directly though and you're welcome to confirm what I said here with him.

Oh, ok. Makes sense now. Thanks.

Seems a bit low in my eyes for a 1 of 2 piece and it being the only one still not redeemed.

It'd be a shame to have both of the 500btc bars redeemed IMO.

Little confused here. If chainsaw has one and you have one, then what is Mike selling? Unless chainsaw passed away or you sold yours to him (or vise versa).

Amazing offer! I'd be extremely surprised if you didn't get it.

I'd offer the USD equivalent of 5 BTC for the redeemed bar (and holo) using the Winkdex rate at 12:00 noon UTC on the day the agreement is finalized.

Sorry, I know that sounds obtuse, just have no idea how to price the thing in USD. Would love to watch the holo being peeled, and potentially interested in traveling to make that happen, depending on location/date etc.

Just to be clear on my starting offer, I am only interested in an intact bar. PM sent to Mike with details.

Star Wars Ep. 9 is here

I'll offer $2500 for a redeemed bar only. If it makes any difference, I can fly out to meet the seller if based in the US.
