When doing registered mail, the post office employee has to physically watch you seal up what you say you are sealing up in the package, so you can't commit insurance fraud.

Not at all.... I used to and sometimes still do ship out registered mail, every one has been prepackaged before shipment. All I do is go to the post office, stand in line, then ask them to ship it out. No 'packaging in front of them' required.

If you are shipping via registered mail, you can't just ship someone a wad of construction paper, with a tracking number and say it was cash, because the post office wont allow you to do so.

Yes you can. If you try to file an insurance claim they will ask you where is your proof that the item inside was worth the insurance you covered.

I've done a few smaller cash trades which didn't require registered mail, and we just did overnight shipping, but for larger sums of money, it is certainly worth doing everything right.

If you want to add in an extra $30, stand in line at the post office (no drop offs), and spend at least 30 minutes to an hour shipping out one item, sure. So far all registered mail I've done has always arrived with no problem.

Edit: Nevermind, I read the first page over and saw that someone already mentioned that you didn't have to package in front of them and you said you had to do it for precious metals. That makes sense, I 've never had to do that before in registered mail but I guess it should be done for more valuable items.

Yep, I guess its a different dealio for Precious metals. If you just tell them that you shipped say 10 Oz of some collectors coin that has a higher value than spot, they will just say, nope. So it has been my experience that for metals they have to watch you seal the package to confirm what you have in there. If thats not the case for sending cash, thats even better. I suppose the point is to make sure you have adequate insurance if you deem it necessary.

I too have never had a package go missing, or any other troubles with the postal service, however the extra money for insurance may be worth the piece of mind for the seller. Really completely up to them.

I had someone throw a fairly large sum of cash into a flate rate box, and just cover the box with 14 stamps. Not even tracking. Really all up to the sellers preference.

Just realized that USPS money orders work as well, so adding those to my list if "will takes" in exchange for BTC.

Pm me for amount of BTC remaining.

I've got somewhere between 6.5 and 7 BTC left to sell. I've got it spread out between BTC, LTC, and USD which is why I'm not entirely sure the amount.

you dont even have a local atm? that is all you would need.something doesn't seem right.

i wish everyone luck.

my main worry is postal workers stealing the cash and the inevitable problems messing around with the insurance claim.

Nope, admittedly I can go to an ATM and withdraw with my debit card, but I've had my account frozen twice already for suspicious withdrawals... of $500 each... I don't mess with banks anymore, they are a waste of time. I've had more Bitcoin related accounts frozen then I care to list. So I just do Bitcoin > Silver/Gold > Cash.

Well, if its insured, or mailed via registered mail, having the postal workers steal your money is very unlikely, first because with registered mail, they would be caught and fired, second, because the insurance will pay it out.

Thanks for your pms everyone, but I think I'm set for now. I may have more Bitcoins to sell in the nearish future, as I do business from cash > metals > BTC and I need to repeat the cycle.

So if you are interested in working something out, I'd be happy to use escrow, and leave me a response here or pm me.

I can arrange cash into most any bank account, anywhere in the world in under 24 hours hours, usually 5-7 hours. Direct to your metals supplier perhaps.  Rate dependent, I am very interested.
