I just ordered 3 of them to EUROPE. Hope they will ship soon!

Ironically, I had to buy them using PayPal, not Bitcoins. The price in Bitcoins was too expensive compared to current conversion rate between BTC and USD. Also, selecting 3 pieces was trivial in PayPal, but not in the Bitcoin payment window.

We definitely need simple and usable payment gate for Bitcoins!

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback. You got them quick.

Any idea when the next shipment is going to go out? Only curious! Thanks!

Just got my 3 bitcoins in the mail today.

They look awesome!

Do you do laser engraving for the serial number?

Just curious, how did you design and come up with the molding for the coins for a reasonable price?  I thought striking a new coin was 10s of thousands of dollars or more.

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback. You got them quick.

Yes, they are laser etched serial numbers. I'm worried they may wear off. Time will tell.

I can't tell you my secrets  Lips sealed. Manufacturing a new coin can be expensive. I've streamlined it a bit and cut out some of the costs.

We do NOT support orders outside the USA if paying via Bitcoin or Dwolla.

I'm guessing this is due to the domestic shipping cost being "baked in" to the cost of the product when paying via Bitcoin or Dwolla. Is that right? Why not separate it out for international orders? Or just, y'know, separate it out all the way? Is it because you don't have a system that can handle different shipping rates on each order?

Sorry, it just seems funny that you don't accept bitcoins for international orders since that's probably where Bitcoin shines brightest.

Yes, I don't have a good shopping cart system to handle all this. This has been rather frustrating. If you know of a good free shopping cart that supports Bitcoin payment, let me know.

We now support international orders using any payment method you like :-)
There's BitWillit.

BitWillit looks like a good service. What I'm looking for is shopping cart code that supports Bitcoins, Dwolla, & Paypal.

Oops, sorry about that. You can now order larger quantities and save on shipping. This is only available if using Paypal.

Worked like a charm.

Thank you!

No, not yet. Still working on getting email conformations.

Any way to change the quantity through the PayPal option?  I'm trying to order 4 and rather do one-payment vs. being vigged 4 times by PayPal...

Cheers,
Kermee

Oops, sorry about that. You can now order larger quantities and save on shipping. This is only available if using Paypal.

Also, Free shipping has ended. Shipping is now included in the price for Bitcoin and Dwolla payers. Paypal still has the price at $5.99 +shipping.

WE NOW SUPPORT INTERNATIONAL ORDERS!
However, you must use paypal. We do NOT support orders outside the USA if paying via Bitcoin or Dwolla. Sorry for the inconvenience.

All orders placed by today will be shipped tomorrow (Tuesday the 5th).

I like this coin but be careful, flipoutz has a patent for tracking unique id'd coins online. Its not an issue for those that buy the coins just the operator of the website.

Just wanted to let everyone know that all orders that have been placed up til now have shipped!
Due to the holiday they won't actually go out until Tuesday.

Some have commented on how I can offer this coin for such a low price... I'm afraid I did set the price point a bit too low. For now, I'm keeping the price the same but will drop the free shipping.

Have all the international orders been shipped as well?

Yes, the international orders have been fulfilled as well.

If you are ordering outside the USA please include an extra tenth of a Bitcoin in your order. Thanks.

Looks like they're going for whatever $6 USD is in bitcoins.

As they are not limited edition, they should get cheaper (in BTC) as the BTC value goes up, thus, they're always worth $6 USD.

Also remember reading that it was ILLEGAL to mint your own currency. Not sure if that refers to counterfeiting US currency, or any currency, or if it includes "digital tokens". Not sure the fed's will care if they decide to bust you  Huh
