It's probably because most of the trade made by the user "the joint" were done before the Trust system was introduced.
Anyway I said that they go for less because I've been selling them for less .. in this period I've seen that the price range between 1.1-1.4 for 2013 brass

To some extent, yes, many trades were made before the trust system was implemented, but I've also had several successful, recent trades that aren't reflected in my trust rating.  I just haven't been diligent about requesting that the buyers leave feedback.

That upper end of the range you stated sounds realistic.  I'm sure deals have been made at 1.1 BTC, though I'm not prepared to sell at that price, especially for coins that are in such good condition as these.

Blazedout419 does make a good point.


If you don't trust me, don't buy.  If you're interested but don't trust me, I can provide rep.

If you trust me and just want a fast, smooth exchange, then that is what I'm offering.

Just helping the newbies who join the forum realize now matter the stats of an account use escrow...

Fair enough.  I won't discourage escrow, and I also encourage newbies to use escrow.  

It's one of those things where you say to yourself "But I know I'm honest!" and you want things to be as convenient as possible.  That is why reputation is so valuable -- if your rep is strong enough you can demand convenience through up-front payment.

You'd find that I'm consistent in pushing for up-front payment in my sales threads.  The reasoning is simple -- I have zero risk of getting scammed.  I don't like transacting when I feel at risk, and if this puts off a potential buyer, that's fine, I understand.

You have hardly any trust feedback or WoT... where is all this "trust"??  I have 20x the rep as you and would encourage escrow for any deal..if it were me or anyone selling.

I can go back and start quoting feedback if I need to.   I'm not a business or anything close to it, but I've sold GPUs, ASICs, gemstones, exchanged virtual currencies, and otherwise.  The majority of those sales were without escrow wherein I received payment up front -- I've heard no complaints.  Even the terms of my escrow sales included up front payment (e.g. some now, some later). Edit: John K. could vouch for this.

The whole point of having an account for years, making thousands of posts, contributing to the community by working, exchanging, and facilitating the dialogue within it, etc. is to establish credibility.  Despite a few controversial posts, I'm squeaky clean, and my sales feedback is flawless.  Maybe if I went back and coerced everyone I transacted with to bump up the plus count in my trust rating, it'd be as cool as yours.

Pretty expensive coin over there.. I can get them for 25% less
Your price is in-between the brass and the silver

That's fine with me Smiley  May I ask where you're pulling the quote from?  I definitely believe you, but I'm just curious.

Edit:  I'm aware it's a higher premium than what I've seen, though this offer may appeal to those who want a smooth transaction with a reputable member, good communication, a worry- and hassel-free experience, or who may want more than one at a time.  In any case, the price is reflective of my reluctance to let these go for cheap as I have little doubt their premiums will only continue to rise.  Your opinion may be different.

I am happy to provide escrow of 0.5% for this, and have provided escrow in the past to other users.

i would suggest escrow for a larger BTC purchase, no matter who from

Fine by me Smiley

However, as stated, using escrow for this transaction means these will be priced in terms of USD.

escrow has absolutely no bearing on currency type, why would you not price in BTC?

Because it absolutely does have bearing on the currency type.   Suppose I want to cash out the BTC I receive and ensure that I receive $x when I do.  Using escrow casts some uncertainty regarding what the USD value of the BTC will be at the time I receive it.   So, payment would be made in BTC, but  priced in USD, to mitigate that uncertainty.

You would be better off using a trusted escrow.. like TomatoCage.


Lol.

TomatoCage was the one that added me to the default trust list.

My reputation speaks for itself, and as a past contributor to Bitcoin Magazine, my identity is no secret.  I'll do escrow, but buyer pays escrow fees, and I'd prefer not to go through the hassel (as a seller; as a buyer, I always want escrow).  

Edit:  If escrow is used, price will be set in USD rather than BTC.

Edit 2:  This is Tomatocage's feedback for me:

How would the sale work please?


1) State how many coins you want.
2) I will provide you with a BTC address to send payment to.
3) Send BTC to this address and provide me with a shipping name and address typed exactly the way you would like me to write it on the shipping label.
4) The coins will be mailed next business day, or same day time permitting.
5) I will provide you with a tracking number.
6) We're both happy Smiley
