Premiums are going to go higher. There are more coins for sale on ebay nowadays. More people have paypal than bitcoin so there is a larger pool of potential buyers rather than just here.

As ever, great for buyers and totally appalling for sellers. Good luck to anyone selling on there. There's absolutely no way in hell I'd ever do it in a month of Sundays.

Casascius coins are now serious money regardless of denomination. Given EBay's hopelessness for sellers the ante has been upped to unacceptable levels. I'm amazed anyone risks it.

I risk it. AMA  Wink

But when i see fiat buyers on ebay paying $40 for a satori coin that tells me they either have money to burn or its not an object

Really? It tells me that they operate multiple ebay accounts, so that they can buy their own coin when nobody else wants it, in order to create the appearance of a market.

Go ahead and spend some time digging through completed Casascius auctions on ebay. Take a look at the bidders. They're mostly ****'d out, but there's enough info there to make it plainly obvious what's happening.

You're fuckin nuts buying OR selling a Casascius on ebay.

Nonsense. There's a bigger market for physicals on ebay than here these days. Source? I sell there
Right on brother! I see your listings and you have had some nice buys.

Why would a buyer be nuts? Ebay has protection and doesnt release your payment til you leave feedback? I bought 2 halfs $2500 each and am happy as a lark. Perfect coins. I bought here also. What would your fears be as a buyer?%

It is not even possible to sell physical bitcoin on regular ebay where I am living. Cheesy

It is more like an insertion so that you can't bid on the items as a buyer. Instead you have to contact the person through PM.

Doesn't matter, very few people are going to spend $70k+ on Bitcoin (physical or not), whether it's paypal or BTC. I would argue that premiums are higher when priced in BTC and we all here are willing to spend more BTC on these coins, because we hodl.

On the other hand it is way more risky to sell your physical bitcoin when Paypal is involved.



I agree
But when i see fiat buyers on ebay paying $40 for a satori coin that tells me they either have money to burn or its not an object. I cant see anyone here paying that price. So there are different markets out there.
So i guess what im trying to say is premiums here are different than other places. So a 5.5btc premium on this coin here may sound crazy but on ebay or somewhere else it may be a good deal.

I really hope people don't start marketing Casascius with BCH amounts included, so lame.

You have to at some point... Take a look at a Casascius 25BTC coin. Most recent sales have been between 26.5 - 27BTC. The current peel value is now over the original buy price... Personally I will peel a Cas 25 redeem whatever shitcoins I get free and then sell it peeled.

I definitely understand why people would, I'm just hoping they don't. I look at Casacius and other coins in a different way, never with the intention to peel them but rather hand them down or sell for BTC.

The owner is asking for 17BTC for this coin. The bcash alone is worth roughly 1.3BTC

good luck with that - a ~5.5BTC (~22k) premium is pretty steep.  The 1BTC silver/gilt coins tend to go for a ~1BTC premium

Yeah but these coins command a much higher premium than a single.  Apples and oranges.  By that case you pay a 100% premium, the offer price is 70% premium for the 10.  So you can bend numbers any which way.  Either way the last public sale of these i think went for 16.5btc so 17 for this 68 is about spot on to the price right now

I'm sure it won't be much longer before naypalm has the BCC amounts added to the coins in the Casascius Analyzer.  Can't fault people for mentioning the additional funds.  It's worth noting.

Interesting to see current premium for 10s

Yeah, I am also curious with how the market has been. If this were my coin I would just hold it and let all these other free coins accumulate over the next few years.

This is not my coin, but I am in possession of it. I will have a price soon from the seller, but in the mean time feel free to make an offer. Owner is asking 17BTC

This is the cleanest 10BTC coin I have ever seen...most grade lower.
