Is it possible to make a reservation for another coin?
just to make sure they do not go out of stock  Grin

we sell on a first come first serve basis at this point (low stock)

I can promise you they will go out of stock Grin

We ship from Germany

Are coins in mint condition? Do they include capsule?

Capsule: no, mint condition: yes, I guess: we don't touch the coins. We put them into little plastic bags right from the roll we received from Mike using gloves.

Yeah, I received an email today about the tracking update. My German is a little rusty but I understood what it said :p. I'll just patiently wait for it Smiley. Thanks for the explaination though!

Quick question, how often does the shipping status update? My package was posted 3 days ago and it still only says it has been posted at the postoffice in Hamburg.

It's not looking good for christmas to be honest ;(.

Both packages we shipped on the 18th (I'm assuming yours is one of them) are now in Frankfurt to go out of germany by air according to tracking.

Tracking usually updates pretty much realtime. Once an event (scan) happens it shows up in the tracking no more than an hour later according to my experiences.

There's no tracking event between the "posting in Hamburg" and the "arrival in Frankfurt". I don't know why it took so long in this case (usually it's in Frankfurt next business day), probably due holiday-related overload first, then the weekend.

Wow :O

Okay I'm down for two in the new year, x-mas has eatin all my funds but I'm wanting to hold some BTC away nice and pretty, these are perfect.

I'm being asked by locals to carry coin's. I wonder how hard it is to make our own sticker Smiley

Coins look great, just wondering if you would ship to Thailand? If so would that be extra? Would it be fully insured? Lastly could it be sent as 'gift' or within a bundle of documents? Customs are dreadful here.
Cheers

Insured tracked shipping to Thailand is included in the price.

We use a normal-looking letter (A4 Page folded 2 times) to ship. It might as well contain documents when looking at it. However, one can feel the coins (usually only 2 sheets of paper included).

More info about customs in a PM

How did you load the coin with btc ?

we didn't. Mike Caldwell, the producer of the coins did.

you can look up the transaction on blockchain.info if you have the address of the coin.

That looks good enough, good to hear they are handled with care. Can I PM you the transaction ID or do you prefer me emailing it?

Will make the payment after your reply.

I prefer email, because I work on shipping together with jalaman. So he can see the order, too.


No problem. I've made the payment and sent an email to [email protected].

Do the coins come in a protective case? If so, I'll order one.

No. After our office fire we ship the coins in plastic bags and don't add certificates.

A plastic bag as in a regular plastic bag, or as in the small coin sleeves?

EDIT: Could you PM me a picture of the coin in the state it will be shipped in? Don't want to be a pain in the ass but I just want an undamaged coin. The certificate isn't a problem.

A normal small plastic bag (zip-loc?). I'll take a shot when we next ship one. We take the coins directly from the roll we received from Mike using gloves and put them into the bag without touching them.

I used to ship 1 BTC coins in these plastic bags earlier this year and last year. Customers seem to have been satisfied with the packaging, example (with photo): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1672933

I have 1 BTC coins available with worldwide shipping. Check my signature for thread. Please note I do ship worldwide, if you are outside of the US and inquire about a 0.5 coin I will direct you here until Molecular is sold out. Thank you for looking!

allright, thanks. I direct all US customers to Nightowlace.

They are still available and price is 0.62 BTC ?

Available: yes
Price: BTC 0.69
Shipping: NOT to the US.

Why don't you ship to the United States?

Because the loss rate of shipments is really high compared to every other country. and in some cases USPS doesn't even pay up the insurance. Insurance is payed in value of the coins at the point of sending. This has incurred huge cost for us in the past (takes at least 3 month for postal service to admit the package is lost. In the meantime price has increased 10-fold and we have to make the customer whole).

In other words: the risk is too high. Sorry.

Are you also able to supply 1 BTC coins?

I'm interested in 1BTC coins as well

sorry guys, not selling any of the precious few I have left.

EDIT: btw: take a look at the numbers: http://casascius.uberbills.com/. It seems the 0.5 BTC are a lot rarer than the 1 BTC. Taking into account that it currently doesn't look like Mike will be producing in the near future due to the fincen saying he's a money transmitter makes the 0.5 BTC coins look like a good investment.
