I want to buy 1 BTC worth.

What is the procedure? Should I simply edit the sheet and then send to the address? Or do I pm JohnK?
Also, in case I need it shipped outside US, when will the shipping cost be figured out and paid?

Send the coin, post the TX ID. Only me and OP can edit the sheet. I will add you in the sheet. OP will ask for your address when the order is in, and figure out the costs later.

Thanks for the reply. So I am sending 1BTC that will be counted for chips only?

Yours plus OP's fees plus shipping would be figured out later? Or should I send 1.0744 to book 13 chips and that would be counted as having paid off fees, only shipping to be figured out later?

Per the original post, the latter.

What will probably happen is this: Your total will be truncated at the chip and the remainder will be used for shipping. This will leave us with a few unpurchased chips that were originally covered by this shipping balance, but that will be very easy to organize at the time.

Nope, everyone will need to pay more for the shipping later on - the amount is not taken from the current balance unless stated when sending. (like the overpayments.)

Send 1.0744 - the 2.5% and OP shipping fees (from avalon to him) is included. Only the shipping fee from him to you is not counted yet.

Okay, still waiting for confirmations from receiving my coin. I have sent 1.1 BTC to the above BTC address.

The transaction is:

0d1cccb382c5cd1935ae2716c750895644a2b2d12b5b71301c9b5a7fc37c1be0

As of writing this, already 1 confirmation. Please check and get me on that spreadsheet!

Thank you!

Done -confirmed.

Can I assume that these will be shipped to us in the order payment was received?

I would assume all goes out at once as the chips are small. (7mmx7mm each according to someone)
The post delays are of course out of hand.

my responsibility for the funds stop at the point when the funds are in to Avalon.

Are you involved with making sure we get the chips from OP?

Check the posts from here (mostly between me and fpgaminer): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1889287

Oops, I forgot in my post, as a digest for anyone lazy -> escrow holder will hold OP's identity in escrow for legal action, too.

So there's that, since these are ~103,000 USD in real goods, we cross the bar for legal action.

As per the contract, JohnK is only responsible for buying the chips to the address OP has provided. OP has presumably provided a driver's license and bills for this address. FWIW OP has tons of reputation and will only get more positive rep from this. He will be very careful to do it right, quickly, and make no snap judgments IMO.

Can anybody tell me what the amount should be for 100 chips with fees and everything? I can't make sense of the spreadsheet. I've sent a couple of messages to the OP, but I'm sure he's swamped right now.

I just sent my 6.83077137BTC from address 1Dq9q8MBbXFVSSHBtoysxnMwRzeG6rGtTo, just to ensure I don't get kicked out again, or miss the boat if somebody comes in and closes the buy early by making a large payment...

I will submit the balance if/when the seller I just bought another 2 BTC comes through with his end of the bargain.

As far as signing my account, do I just need to copy and paste the text of the contract into the message, or what?

Added. The chip calculator says you need 8.03BTC in total, so you're needing 1.19922863BTC more.
Signing is not mandatory unless there's conflicts where someone else claims your balance or the balance stays unclaimed for too long.

Got it. Will forward the balance as soon as it arrives, provided I haven't missed the boat. In the meantime, here's the blockchain link for my payment: https://blockchain.info/tx/883e85f8e5a58918975a2284205b73e009e40ca3f77c32753740f1da9e7bfcb1

Ragingazn, glad to hear you're still here and on board.

As far as I can tell, simply posting the link to your transaction on blockchain.info is sufficient.
