I am going to frank:

Your artwork and designs depress me. They make me feel like I am staring at old flyers advertising 50% off diapers at Walmart, in a waiting area behind the restrooms.

Suddenly, a large obese woman with a Walmart vest walks by with toilet paper on her shoe and a sagging scowl on her face. You can see her old, worn-out panties rising up over her shirt from the back.

That's how your designs make me feel. I can only hope my honest perspective motivates you to create better work.

All you really had to say was "I HATE PASTEL COLORS MAKE THEM VIVID" and they might have given your post some consideration. But the undue and insulting criticism was completely uncalled for and unnecessary.

To be specific, it's very bland. Default gradients, stock photos and clip art are only going to take you so far.

nice product, but the fees are...wow.

50% on a 1 BTC card
10% on a 5 BTC card
5% on a 10 BTC card
2.5% on a 20 BTC card (reasonable)

So the fee about $2.50 including shipping.

You think that is high? I personally would avoid the 1 BTC one but the others are priced quite nicely.

yes, for what i imagine will be a regular white envelope and a normal stamp, i think its high. your breakdown only works if your going to buy one card. the fee doesn't come down if i buy a handful. the "free" shipping would be $20 for 4 cards, and i imagine they'll still ship in that same white envelope with the same stamp.

You should plug the bulk pricing directly into the website for convenience.

We will, at this point its a hackathon and we are frantically finishing our presentation.

Our competition is a dollar-shave-club knockoff for mail order tampons. Let's get Bitcoin to win this thing! We need more orders than them!

Remember - FREE SHIPPING!!

Look at the markup on the 1 BTC Casascius coins. You will find our product to be a better deal!

Is your product made out of brass and laser-etched or out of flimsy plastic?

It's a high quality credit card hard plastic.

Also, I fully agree that the cost per card should be the same for each denomination. I do think, however, that there should be bulk order pricing. Any plans for this?

Yes, how many do you want? And for 50+ cards we'll put your logo on it!
BUT YOU MUST BUY TODAY for the best rate!

Are you affiliated with this project? What is the cost per card if I get 50 1BTC cards?

Yes, check the OP.
50 = $1.75+BTC/each
100 = $1.50+BTC/each
You MUST order before 5PM EST to get this deal.

You can email me at [email protected]

Well done! How do they work?

I'm guessing you can't swipe them or only use partial amounts. You either redeem the whole thing or none at all?

They look like they could be used as cash though, instead of paper, they are plastic cards.

I like!

Some more info would be nice, though.

jjjrmy and I are participating in Startup Weekend in Orlando, and we have created a physical bitcoin gift card. These are available NOW for pre-orders at the websites:

http://lovebitcoins.org

https://www.giftcoin.net/card

We go on stage to present our startup idea sometime between 5:00 and 7:00 pm. We would like to win this competition and show some orders for these products!

The actual cards will be available to ship in approximately 2 weeks. After that, the turnaround time should be a few days.

Price of each card is the face value plus 0.5 BTC, which includes manufacturing and shipping within the United States.
