MAY 3, 2020 AUCTION - 2013 LEALANA PHYSICAL 0.5 BTC COIN - CERTIFIED MS 65

***Carefully read this auction post in its entirety before bidding***

This auction ends Sunday May 10, 2020 at 3:00pm Mountain Daylight Time (UTC -6).

BIDDING AND PAYMENT

Minimum bid will start at 0.5 BTC. Bidding will be done in minimum increments of 0.005 BTC (all bids must be a multiple of 0.005). Bitcoin is the ONLY accepted form of payment for this auction. Please bid in the following format:

CORRECT FORMAT: "I bid 0.505 BTC"

INCORRECT FORMAT: "I bid 0.50123456 BTC"

Should bids come in within 5 minutes of the end of the auction, the auction will be extended by 1 minute increments between additional bids. This will be measured by the minute, not by the second. For example, if a bid comes in at 2:57 MDT (within 5 minutes of auction end), the auction will be extended by one minute to 3:01:00 MDT. If another bid comes in at 3:00:59, the auction will be extended to 3:02:00. If the next bid comes in at 3:01:01, the auction will be extended to 3:03:00. Official bid time records will be determined by the timestamp posted on your bid reply. Upon the auction end, I will announce the winner and declare the end of the auction.

THE COIN

One of 500 to be made, this is #12 in Lealana's series of 0.5 BTC physical coins, minted on a 1 oz silver coin. The coin is still funded with the original 0.5 BTC.  The coin has been certified MS 65 by ANACS, and comes slabbed with the original certificate of authenticity. I am the original buyer, and had the coin slabbed after receiving directly from Smoothie.

ESCROW and SHIPPING

I have been in contact with both OgNasty and minerjones, and both have offered to provide escrow services for this auction for a 1% fee/gift. This 1% of the auction total will be split between myself and the winning bidder. This means that if you are the winning bidder, you will need to budget an additional 0.5% of the winning total for your share of the escrow. If you are the winner of the auction, please let me know your preferred escrow agent. If you would prefer a different escrow provider, please PM me before you bid so we can work out a mutually agreed upon third option. Other escrow providers can be found here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recommended-bitcointalk-escrow-services-2439910

Shipping in the USA will be $30. This shipping cost will be added to the total of the winning bid after the auction ends. Shipping will be via USPS registered mail (which requires a signature upon delivery).

Shipping outside the USA will be managed by minerjones, who has offered to facilitate international shipping for this auction. The winning bidder can choose from USPS, Global Post, UPS, and Fedex. If you are the winning bidder and are outside the US, after the auction ends I will be in touch along with minerjones to coordinate shipping and cost. This cost will then be added to the total of the winning bid. I will ship the coin(s) to minerjones via USPS registered mail, after which he will send to you. Please be aware this method of shipping will take longer than conventional post, because of all these additional safeguards we are utilizing to ensure a successful delivery of your coin(s).

After working out shipping, upon successful payment to the escrow agent, your coin(s) will be shipped within 24 hours or as soon as reasonably possible.

Please do not send payment to any wallet address until shipping and escrow have been determined. Payment will be sent to the escrow agent's wallet; please refer to your selected escrow agent's escrow thread for their payment address.

Escrow arrangement, shipping arrangement, and payment are all due within 72 hours from the time the auction ends. Should the winner not honor their bid and not provide payment in that 72 period, the next highest bidder will be requested to honor their bid.

~FINAL NOTE~

Please be aware, if you partake in this or any of my other auctions, please expect that you will receive fake PMs from impostors pretending to be me or anyone else involved in the auction, likely to try and get you to send coins to other addresses. Please be diligent and make sure you take all reasonable precautions to not get fooled by the inevitable scammers who will try and scam you, and me, and everyone else they can.
