According to the nice people at BitPay, my BitcoinCommodities is ranked as follows (turnover only):

#1 in Germany
#5 in Europe
#17 Worldwide

and that's with only switching over to BitPay in mid-March :-D

Thank you for your renewed confidence, everyone, I am very proud and always happy to be of service.

hi 2weiX,

any news on also selling palladium/platinum?  Smiley



Hi,

that's probably not going to happen any time soon.
This is mostly because even the bigger local sellers only have limited stock and I cannot exercise control over far-away dropshippers such as APMEX. This would expose me to the risk of selling stuff that isn't in stock. I could always do custom orders, however.

I will be a at the next BXB in BetaHaus in Berlin on the 19th.

If you are interested in buying some bullion, be it silver or gold or the odd Casascius coin (please check out my inventory), I am very much willing to deliver on the 19th.

Note: you NEED to order and pay until Wednesday, so I can securely prepare the transaction.

My experience with these players has been A+.  Their website works well and is intuitive, their communication is excellent (order status, for example, is regularly updated according to where you are in the process via email and in your account history), their shipping is fast and packaged well, and the precious metal is legit.  

Can't really ask for much more than that.

Thank you 2weiX and team!

NEW ITEMS


20kg Silver Bar and 1kg Gold Bar.
Have at it!

Also just in:

1oz Silver Casascius 1BTC Coins and 1/2oz Silver Casascius 0.5BTC Coins.

These are clearly priced as memorabilia, so don't fret. With the price declin, import duties and whatnot I am still not entirely making a killing off those. I just had to have them in the store is all.

Dear Customers,

(...)

However, you will also find that the BTC price on MtGox is significantly higher than on other exchanges. This is because many people are using their MtGox funds to buy Bitcoins only to withdraw them to another exchange to sell them for USD there. This would explain the difference in price from the advertised products to the price billed at checkout.

(...)
I doub it. Remember the basic principle...buy low...sell high... Grin
What is really happening is that people are purchasing bitcoins in MtGox in order to transfer out their USD funds in the form of bitcoins...


That's exactly what I am saying.
They're buying BTC at MtGox to withdraw them.

The only difference in our statements is that I assume that many of those BTC get sold at other exchanges for USD (because they HAVE to... better pay 10% than risk another 20% price drop, amirite?).

I'm surprised there is no global price service based on something like sum(volume*price)/totalvolume

you could calculate that number if you wanted, but the crux here ist find someone who will actually process your BTC at that price.
reading bitpay's explanation of price finding, I find their approach makes the most sense.

Dear Customers,


the website bitcoincommodites.com uses the MtGox exchange rate to display the price of products in Bitcoin.

Some of you have already noticed that there are significant price differences from the advertised price on the site and the price billed at checkout by BitPay.

This has the following background:

MtGox has halted USD withdrawals for two weeks.

Following this, BitPay has removed MtGox from its pool of market places used to find the "right" price for the USD/BTC pair.

However, you will also find that the BTC price on MtGox is significantly higher than on other exchanges. This is because many people are using their MtGox funds to buy Bitcoins only to withdraw them to another exchange to sell them for USD there. This would explain the difference in price from the advertised products to the price billed at checkout.

Sadly, BitPay doesn't offer an API to access their USD/BTC rates, as they are determined at each checkout instance.

I have already contacted them and I hope they will provide us with an API soon-ish so as to not confuse customers and provide stability and reliability in pricing.

Here's the MtGox statement:

Here's how BitPay calculates their prices:

Also in stock are the legendary .999 Silver Bitcoins, both Series A and Series B.
The .999 Silver Bitcoins Series A are limited to 1000 pieces (the dies have been destroyed!).
The .999 Silver Bitcoins Series A are limited to 1300 pieces.


What proof can you offer that the dies are destroyed?  

I'm not trying to pick on you, I have about 20 of these coins and I would like to know who made them and how the die got destroyed, and how they are valuable?

the creator https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/mjbmonetarymetals-28640 stated this at one point.
don't let me seek out the post, though.

Any plans for platinum in USA?

no, not really, so far.

I have gotten a couple of requests, however, so I might start looking into that.
