Oh. that is for a random lot of 10.  This is a pretty fun idea these stamps.  Hope they do well.

Is this the one that is all the rage?  10 for $300 USD

  Ahh I see....Just went on the site again....I think they are all SODL out..I cannot find the stamp to buy! 

  I placed an order two days ago with no problem...but now they are gone!

I still have absolutely no confirmation that they are the 5 flavours.
I’m just assuming so and hoping that they deliver (after my e-mail), Austrian style.

  That's great...I was under the impression they only sodl them randomly.

I ordered via the website, literally moments after you opened the topic.
E-mailed them later on saying that - as a crypto collector - I would very much value a set.

If you guys decide on a 100+ order group buy, I might fly to Austria and grab them from the post offices, assuming that they are still available.

Niiice!   Did you buy it from the official website? Or did you get from ebay? I know people are buying a lot of stamps from site in hopes of securing a set.

Yes it is!

I’m so happy I got a set! 
@WhyFhi, Y it’s the official Austrian Post website.

So is the website you posted in op valid to purchase from?

The price is now $2999 

2 complete sets of 5 colours have been sold for 999 usd.

just put the 6 digit code (located at the at the far right of the stamp, and marked as [1]) here: https://crypto.post.at/asset

Ok...what is the best app to scan the stamps received to see what color they are!

Calling all you Mr Robots out there...

what's the difference between the "very limited edition of 500" and the rest that are being sold to the classic online store?

If I understand correctly:

In the classic online store, you get the physical stamp, and you can redeem the digital token (by scratching the card and revealing the 12-word private key seed). The colour (i.e. rarity) of the digital asset that you will receive is random

In the OnChain store, you receive the digital asset when you place the order (and send payment in ETH), and then fill the form with your delivery details in order to receive the physical stamp. The colour (i.e. rarity) of the digital asset that you will receive is kinda random (since those are being distributed in a specific token number order through the smart contract, you can always see the color rarity of the next token that is going to be distributed by the contract before placing the order. Hence you might be able to "choose" a desirable color. THose should be distributed in "random" token number order through the smart contract, and not sequentially)

What exactly makes those first 500 stamps as "very limited edition", and justifies the increasing value of those last 100 to be sold through the OnChain store? OnChain orders, will receive an envelope with a physical stamped/cancelled stamp, where the left part of the stamp (with the private key seed) will be missing? Will this onchain shop physical stamp will be differentiated from the physical stamps received through the  classic online store? (hence that's the limited edition status?)

please elaborate  

edit:

going to the following URL https://crypto.post.at/asset you can scan the QR on the physical card (or just enter the 5 digit code on it), and see the asset that is bound with the specific physical card. I clearly understand that this is a feature for collectors. You can see the rarity of the digital asset that the physical card has, without the need of scratching any of area of the card (you only need to reveal the private key seed, if you would like to sweep it to your wallet).

I have seen in various places, photos of how those physical cards are being sold in various point of sales in Austria (please see the below photo). The QR code (and the 5 digit code) is in plain view. Hence someone could go with his/her mobile phone to a store, quickly scan the QR code of all the cards, and purchase only those cards that hold the rare red stamp digital token. I believe that the QR code should be sealed beneath the cardboard (i.e. not in a public view), and someone should be able to reveal the QR code ONLY after purchasing the card (and tear apart the cardboard).

This is not a good design approach IMO... but hey... that's just my 2 satoshis....



edit 2:

are all of the digital tokens already minted? In the different colour properties (in opensea), I can see only a portion available from the total mintage. If not, how the rest is going to be distributed?

by seeing how popular those crypto stamps (Crypto stamp Edition 1) became, any plans of producing a series 2 (edition 2) in the near future?

I saw this (also saw you buying them on opensea I think). Seems like a bug in the contract. They meant to make the last 100 cost 8% more than the first ones. Instead each one is 8% more than the one before so exponential growth. 

Not sure if you noticed, but it was possible (and still is) to choose the stamp you want because their smart contract dispenses them in descending order, so you can see what the next one to be sold will be...

Pm me if anyone wants to do a group buy

Right now, the best option to get those is the classic online store.
All OnChain aspects are visible only with a Web3 Browser. The very limited edition of 500 OnChain store is now basically sold out due to the price increase. There is a secondary market on opensea

My company developed all the blockchain aspects around this.

It seem like the "Online Token" was limited to 500 the last 100 Token will be sold with +8% each.
56 left and the next cost now 187.38€... 

The last one will cost like ~14k€ if anyone buy the stamps before

Hi
I think both opinion are valid in the same time.
Let's me explain why from several perspective

- Collector of stamps (classic)
there is not any catalogue or other sources (official) that describe a private issue like that.
It means, will be classified as "curiosity", not a private label (due the real/valid post usage), not a bogus stamp (since this design has been accepted and printed in a stamp).
But private stamp like this one, could be emitted with a very low amount (even 1 stamp!).
Anyone can create an infinite series. The whole series (different items, like different design of value) will never get any categorization.
I can guarantee is not any official things but just a curiosity (from a point of view of typical stamp collector, like who collect new stamps emitted and is not a btc collector).
E.g.
As collector of Italian stamps, I can also create my commemoratives series:
"Siracusana" With value in euro http://www.ibolli.it/cat/serie/siracusana/siracusana.php
This can't be classified as "Italian Stamp" (likewise Sassone E24)
http://www.ibolli.it/php/em-italia-708-Italia%20turrita.php or collected of the piece of the series.
It's a private design not categorized in any official UPU (Universal Postage Union) catalogue.
Yes probably they are the vast majority, even because It depends from your specialization, like private issue of Italian RSI. They have their market, even their catalogue, or cited in Sassone. But in this case, only certain collectors are interested just because there is a bogus history behind the creation, and there is nothing of official about it.

- Collector of bitcoin collectibles
Yes you are perfectly right, in fact I have defined as a very great Idea


@krogothmanhattan about the idea of stamps mailed to inbox:
excluding a FDC (First Day Cover), unless this stamp could be used for legal postage,
any envelope is pretty common (you can create when you want in any amount).

It could be more rare the "cancelled" stamps emitted by their shop, since we don't know if there is any special mark impressed on stamp, and technically, an unused stamp is ready for the use when you want, a stamp used with their mark could be no more available in their shop.

I will update my list as below:

Technically, you can collect:
- Single stamp mint (Common)
- Single stamp used (Common) (Used by any postage office)
- Single stamp used (Common) (Used by Austrian Postage Shop)
- First Day Cover (the stamp used/stamped the first day on 11 Jun 2019). Since its not advertised only local group can create it. (Rare)
- Full cover (FDC)= Stamp used for real postage First Day (single use, likewise you more for a single expedition) (Very Rare) I guess there are no more 100 pieces about that
- Full cover = Stamp used for real postage other days (Common)
